Herein, we demonstrate the fabrication of a three-dimensional (3D) polypyrrole-coated-porous graphene (PPy/PG) composite through in-situ polymerization of pyrrole monomer on PG surface. The PPy/PG displays a 3D hierarchical porous structure and the resulting PPy/PG hybrid serves as a conductive trap to lithium polysulfides enhancing the electrochemical performances. Owing to the superior conductivity and peculiar structure, a high initial discharge capacity of 1020 mAh g−1 and the reversible capacity of 802 mAh g−1 over 200 cycles are obtained for the S/PPy/PG cathode at 0.1 C, remaining the remarkable cyclic stability. In addition, the S/PPy/PG cathodes demonstrate an excellent rate performance exhibiting 477 mAh g−1 at 2 C.

AbstractEchinus-like nitrogen-doped carbon with a hierarchical porous structure was synthesized from green larch waste and urea via liquid in situ doping and high-temperature carbonization. Benefitting from a large specific surface area (649 m2 g−1) and hierarchical porous structure, the nitrogen-doped carbon exhibited excellent electrochemical performance for supercapacitors. Remarkably, the echinus-like nitrogen-doped carbon achieved a high specific capacitance of 340 F g−1 at a current density of 1 A g−1 in 6 M KOH electrolyte as well as a good performance rate and stability (with a capacitance retention of 98% after 5000 cycles). This capacitance was almost 1.5 times higher than that of undoped carbon due to the contribution of the pseudocapacitance from the nitrogen doping. Larch sawdust is a promising carbon source for fabricating inexpensive, sustainable and high-performance supercapacitor materials.
