Resumo
New composite based on polypyrrole (PPy) and bismuth oxide (α-Bi2O3) was investigated as
supercapacitor electrode. The α-Bi2O3 was obtained by hydrothermal route at 500 °C for 2 h. Cyclic
voltammetry was used to electropolymerize PPy on graphite electrode (GE) or on GE/α-Bi2O3.
The X-ray diffraction profile of Bi2O3 revealed the α-Bi2O3 monoclinic structure with space group
P21/c. The scanning and transmission electron microscopy images showed that PPy coated α-Bi2O3.
Raman spectra showed that PPy inhomogeneously coated α-Bi2O3, but it was still possible to
obtain a α-Bi2O3@PPy core-shell hybrid composite with highly ordered α-Bi2O3 with electronic
interaction between the oxide and the polymer chain of the polymer. The GE/α-Bi2O3@PPy
composite electrode (type I supercapacitor) displayed a predominantly capacitive profile with
low impedance values and good electrochemical stability after 50 charge and discharge cycles.
The specific capacitance of α-Bi2O3@PPy composite was found in the range of 634 to 301 F g-1
to gravimetric current of 3 and 10 A g-1, respectively.
