Abstract
The method of making a porous carbon electrode is a chemical activation-based method of making a porous nanocarbon electrode for supercapacitors and the like. Recycled jackfruit () peel waste is used as a precursor carbon source for producing the porous nanocarbon. A volume of jackfruit () peel is collected, dried and then heated under vacuum to produce precursor carbon. The precursor carbon is mixed with phosphoric acid (HPO) to form a mixture, which is then stirred, dried and heated to yield porous nanocarbon. The porous nanocarbon is mixed with a binder, such as poly(vinylidenedifluoride), acetylene black, and an organic solvent, such as n-methyl pyrrolidinone, to form a paste. This paste is then coated on a strip of nickel foil to form the porous carbon electrode.
