| Abstract | Fibre reinforced polymer composite is widely accepted as a viable alternative to traditional metal-based engineering materials. It plays a vital role in many engineering fields, particularly in civil, automobile, and aviation industries where lightweight design is of paramount importance. In recent past, functional materials such as multifunctional fibre reinforced composites have increasingly been developed to realize lightweight and novel device structures. Among these developments, energy storable composites such as structural supercapacitors have attracted significant attention of researchers, as those devices can be designed to serve as load bearing critical components of building and many engineering applications. The most common type of supercapacitors, the electric double layer capacitor (also known as EDLC), is adapted for structural supercapacitor development. EDLC embodiment is composed of two carbon fibre electrodes that sandwich an electrically insuLating separator with a structural electrolyte. The structural electrolyte acts as both electrolyte and structural matrix. The research details in this paper demonstrate a development of carbon fibre reinforced Bisphenol A composite which has electrical energy storage capacity. The electrical properties and mechanical properties were experimentaly investigated. The developed composite has shown capacitance 352 mF/cm2 and tensile strength 47 MPa which are enough to integrate to a composite strutctural component. The findings in this research have open up windows of opportunities for wider range of engineering applications, in portable energy storage devices, building materials and industrial application that needs both load bearing and energy storage functions simultaneously. |
