Popis: A simple chemical approach was employed to reduce graphene oxide in order to fabricate electrode coatings in close correlation with industrial production standards for supercapacitors. The morphology, structure, thermal stability and the residual oxygen functional groups in chemically reduced graphene oxide were analyzed. Cyclic voltammetry and charge/discharge measurements were employed to study the electrochemical performance of the coatings as a function of active material loading. The results showed an increase in the specific capacitance for chemically reduced graphene oxide-based coatings in comparison to commercial activated carbon, while the desired value needs to be optimized with respect to the conductivity of such materials.
