The amino-functionalized graphene/polyaniline nanocomposites (AGNS/PANI) were fabricated through in-situ chemical oxidative polymerization of aniline in the presence of amino-functionalized graphene sheets (AGNS). FTIR, UV-vis spectroscopy analyses revealed that aminophenyl groups covalently bound to the basal plane of graphene via a diazonium addition, and the polyaniline chains grafted to graphene sheets. The FE-SEM images show that PANI nanorods aligned vertically on the surface of graphene. The AGNS/PANI nanocomposite exhibits excellent electrochemical performance for supercapacitor electrode materials.

Polyaniline (PANI)/graphene composites have been widely investigated as supercapacitor electrode materials. However, the electrochemical performances of PANI/graphene in laboratory were much lower than the theoretical value and still far from the actual needs because the microstructure of the composite was not very uniform and contained defects such as cracks, voids and dislocation. In this paper, PANI/graphene composites were synthesized by a modified method that involved a continuous in situ polymerization-hydrothermal reduction process. The chemical microenvironment of aniline was modified with the introduction of isopropanol as an adjusting agent for PANI polymerization, resulting in the fine microstructures of PANI/graphene composites and the better effect of [Formula: see text]-doping. The specific capacitance of these PANI/rGO composites is enhanced from 537.9 to 729.4[Formula: see text]F g1 in comparison with the control sample synthesized in aqueous solution. The cycle stability is also improved from 45.1% to 68.1% capacitance retention after 1000 charge–discharge cycles at a current density of 10[Formula: see text]A g[Formula: see text]. These intriguing features make it a suitable method to improve the electrochemical performance of PANI/graphene composites for electrochemical supercapacitors.

Graphene, a one-atomic-thick film of two-dimensional nanostructure, has piqued the attention of researchers due to its superior electrical conductivity, large surface area, good chemical stability, and excellent mechanical behaviour. These extraordinary properties make graphene an appropriate contender for energy storage applications. However, the agglomeration and re-stacking of graphene layers due to the enormous interlayer van der Waals attractions have severely hampered the performance of supercapacitors. Several strategies have been introduced to overcome the limitations and established graphene as an ideal candidate for supercapacitor. The combination of conducting polymer (CP) or metal oxide (MO) with graphene as electrode material is expected to boost the performance of supercapacitors. Recent reports on various CP/graphene composites and MO/graphene composites as supercapacitor electrode materials are summarised in this chapter, with a focus on the two basic supercapacitor mechanisms (EDLCs and pseudocapacitors).
