RESEARCH PROCESS OF PETROLEUM PITCH BASED CARBON MATERIALS IN ELECTROCHEMICAL APPLICATIONS

Abstract

Abstract: Petroleum pitch is a kind of bulk chemical produced in petroleum refining, which is widely used in various fields but with low industrial added value. Using petroleum pitch as carbon source to prepare advanced carbon materials for energy storage, electrocatalysis and other electrochemical processes can not only enhance its added value, but also provide high-quality and low-cost carbon materials for the development of new energy, which has important industrial application prospects. In this paper, the preparation of petroleum pitch-based carbon materials and their typical applications in the field of electrochemistry in recent years are reviewed from the aspects of chemical composition, carbonization mechanism and structure-activity relationship, and some suggestions for their future development are put forward.

Key words: petroleum pitch, carbon materials, electro chemistry, energy storage, electro catalysis
