Article Durable ZrB2–ZrC Composite Materials as Advanced Electrodes for High-Performance Supercapacitors(Amer Chemical Soc, 2025) Paksoy, Aybike; Gungor, Ahmet; Yildirim, Ipek Deniz; Arabi, Seyedehnegar; Erdem, Emre; Balci-Cagiran, OzgeBoride and carbide-based materials attract increasing attention as promising options for energy storage applications. This research focuses on synthesizing pure boride and carbide compounds of zirconium (ZrB2 and ZrC) and their composite powders using mechanical activation-assisted route and subsequent heating processes. The chemical and microstructural characterization results indicate that the synthesized composite powders are of high purity, possess submicron-scale particle sizes (below 400 nm), and exhibit a high surface area of up to 9.41 m2/g. Supercapacitor devices, using the resulting powders as symmetrical electrodes, exhibit high energy density values ranging from 5.8 to 8.8 Wh/kg. The ZrB2-15 wt % ZrC composite sample achieves the highest power density at 155 W/kg, compared to 118 W/kg for the pure ZrB2 sample. Cycling tests demonstrate exceptional capacitance retention (99.4-99.9%) and cyclic stability, even after 5000 cycles, highlighting the high durability of the composite samples. These findings show that ZrB2-ZrC composites exhibit high energy and power density values and excellent cycling performance, making them strong candidates for use in high-performance supercapacitor devices.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Effects of Different Precursors on the Aging and Electrocaloric Properties of Mn-Doped Ba0.95sr0.05tio3 Ceramics(Springer, 2023) Karakaya, Merve; Erdem, Emre; Akdoğan, Yaşar; Adem, UmutIn this study, the effects of different types of Mn precursors (MnO2 and Mn2O3) and sintering temperature on the defect dipole formation, ferroelectric aging and electrical properties were investigated by using Ba0.95Sr0.05TiO3 ceramics as the base. Both Mn precursors were substituted to the Ti-site as 1 mol% and two different sintering temperatures of 1325 and 1400 degrees C were used to study the effect of grain size. We deduced that slightly higher amounts of Mn2+ can be incorporated into the perovskite structure when MnO2 is used as the precursor, by using X-ray diffraction and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. Mn-doped samples sintered at 1325 degrees C age faster than those sintered at 1400 degrees C. Aging caused a decrease in the electrocaloric effect whereas Mn-doping increased it. This study shows that Mn precursor used for the acceptor doping affects the amount of Mn incorporated into the structure and therefore electrical properties of the resulting ceramics.
