This work reports on the physical characteristics and electrochemical properties of the composite Ag2S nanoparticle and porous carbon (PC) derived from polypyrrole (Ppy) as electrode material. The N-doped carbon was produced by means of chemical activation using Potassium hydroxide (KOH) as activating agent with the activation temperature of 750 °C. The specific surface area of 4090 m2g-1 was achieved and consists mainly of mesoporous. The as-prepared composite is characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Transmission electron microscope(TEM). The electrochemical properties of the composites were analyzed using cyclic voltammetry, galvanostatic charge-discharge and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in 6M KOH as electrolyte.
