Hierarchical Co-based Porous Layered Double Hydroxide Arrays Derived via Alkali Etching for High-performance Supercapacitors.

ABSTRACT: Hierarchical nanoarchitecture and porous structure can both provide advantages for improving the electrochemical performance in energy storage electrodes. Here we report a novel strategy to synthesize new electrode materials, hierarchical Co-based porous layered double hydroxide (PLDH) arrays derived via alkali etching from Co(OH)2@CoAl LDH nanoarrays. This structure not only has the benefits of hierarchical nanoarrays including short ion diffusion path and good charge transport, but also possesses a large contact surface area owing to its porous structure which lead to a high specific capacitance (23.75 F cm(-2) or 1734 F g(-1) at 5 mA cm(-2)) and excellent cycling performance (over 85% after 5000 cycles). The enhanced electrode material is a promising candidate for supercapacitors in future application.

Atomic Scale Optimization Strategy of Al-Based Layered Double Hydroxide for Alkali Stability and Supercapacitors.

Project description:The pseudocapacitor material is easily decomposed when immersed in alkaline solution for a long time. Hence, it is necessary to find a strategy to improve the alkali stability of pseudocapacitor materials. In addition, the relationship between alkali stability and electrochemical performance is still unclear. In this work, a series of Al-based LDH (Layered double hydroxide) and derived Ni/Co-based sulfides are prepared, and corresponding alkali stability and electrochemical performance are analyzed. The alkali stability of CoAl LDH is so poor and can be improved effectively by doping of Ni. Ni1Co2S4 and Ni2Co1Al LDH exhibit an outstanding alkali stability, and Ni2Co1S4 exhibits an extremely poor alkali stability. The variable valence state of Co element and the solubility of Al in alkali solution are the fundamental reasons for the poor alkali stability of CoAl LDH and Ni2Co1S4. Ni2Co1S4 showed an outstanding electrochemical performance in a three-electrode system, which is better than that of Ni1Co2S4, indicating that there is no direct correlation between alkali stability and electrochemical properties. Sulfidation improved the electrical conductivity and electrochemical activity of electrode materials, whereas alkali etching suppressed the occurrence of the electrochemical reaction. Overall, this work provides a clear perspective to understand the relationship between alkali stability and electrochemical properties.

Facile and Controllable Synthesis of CuS@Ni-Co Layered Double Hydroxide Nanocages for Hybrid Supercapacitors.

Project description:The synthesis of battery-type electrode materials with hollow nanostructures for high-performance hybrid supercapacitors (HSCs) remains challenging. In this study, hollow CuS@Ni-Co layered double hydroxide (CuS-LDH) composites with distinguished compositions and structures are successfully synthesized by co-precipitation and the subsequent etching/ion-exchange reaction. CuS-LDH-10 with uniformly dispersed CuS prepared with the addition of 10 mg of CuS shows a unique hollow polyhedral structure constituted by loose nanosphere units, and these nanospheres are composed of interlaced fine nanosheets. The composite prepared with 30 mg of CuS addition (CuS-LDH-30) is composed of a hollow cubic morphology with vertically aligned nanosheets on the CuS shell. The CuS-LDH-10 and CuS-LDH-30 electrodes exhibit high specific capacity (765.1 and 659.6 C g-1 at 1 A g-1, respectively) and superior cycling performance. Additionally, the fabricated HSC delivers a prominent energy density of 52.7 Wh kg-1 at 804.5 W kg-1 and superior cycling performance of 87.9% capacity retention after 5000 cycles. Such work offers a practical and effortless route for synthesizing unique metal sulfide/hydroxide composite electrode materials with hollow structures for high-performance HSCs.

3D Hierarchical Co-Al Layered Double Hydroxides with Long-Term Stabilities and High Rate Performances in Supercapacitors.

Project description:Three-dimensional (3D) flower-like Co-Al layered double hydroxide (Co-Al-LDH) architectures composed of atomically thin nanosheets were successfully synthesized via a hydrothermal method in a mixed solvent of water and butyl alcohol. Owing to the unique hierarchical structure and modification by butyl alcohol, the electrochemical stability and the charge/mass transport of the Co-Al-LDHs was improved. When used in supercapacitors, the obtained Co-Al-LDHs deliver a high specific capacitance of 838 F g-1 at a current density of 1 A g-1 and excellent rate performance (753 F g-1 at 30 A g-1 and 677 F g-1 at 100 A g-1), as well as excellent cycling stability with 95% retention of the initial capacitance even after 20,000 cycles at a current density of 5 A g-1. This work provides a promising alternative strategy to enhance the electrochemical properties of supercapacitors.

Heterogeneous assembly of Ni-Co layered double hydroxide/sulfonated graphene nanosheet composites as battery-type materials for hybrid supercapacitors.

Project description:Graphene-based hybrid composites as positive electrodes have aroused great interest in the field of hybrid supercapacitors. However, the charge storage capability of hybrid composites suffers from the scarce interaction between their end members to some extent. Herein, a hybrid composite with electrostatic interaction was obtained by employing a heterogeneous assembly strategy of Ni-Co layered double hydroxide (LDH) and sulfonated graphene nanosheets (SGN). Depending on the substitution of the negatively charged SGN for the interlayer nitrate anions compensating for the positively charged LDH host slabs, the abundance of Ni3+ on the surface of the hybrid composite could be increased to intensify the electrostatic interaction within hybrid composites. As expected, the effective coupling of LDH with SGN ensured the uniform incorporation of heterogeneous components. The unique structure of the hybrid composite accelerated electron transfer and ion diffusion processes during electrochemical reactions, which is beneficial to improve the electrochemical performance of battery-type electrodes. Further evaluation showed that the specific capacity of the LDH/SGN hybrid composite is 1177 C g-1 (2354 F g-1) at 1 A g-1. Additionally, the LDH/SGN//AC hybrid supercapacitor achieved an energy density of 43 W h kg-1 at 800 W kg-1 and still retained 94% of its initial specific capacitance over 10 000 cycles. The boosting effect of the electrostatic interaction within the hybrid composite on electrochemical properties offers a novel pathway for the development of supercapacitors.

Overall water splitting by graphdiyne-exfoliated and -sandwiched layered double-hydroxide nanosheet arrays.

Project description:It is of great urgency to develop efficient, cost-effective, stable and industrially applicable electrocatalysts for renewable energy systems. But there are still few candidate materials. Here we show a bifunctional electrocatalyst, comprising graphdiyne-exfoliated and -sandwiched iron/cobalt layered double-hydroxide nanosheet arrays grown on nickel foam, for the oxygen and hydrogen evolution reactions. Theoretical and experimental data revealed that the charge transport kinetics of the structure were superior to iron/cobalt layered double-hydroxide, a prerequisite for improved electrocatalytic performance. The incorporation with graphdiyne increased the number of catalytically active sites and prevented corrosion, leading to greatly enhanced electrocatalytic activity and stability for oxygen evolution reaction, hydrogen evolution reaction, as well as overall water splitting. Our results suggest that the use of graphdiyne might open up new pathways for the design and fabrication of earth-abundant, efficient, functional, and smart electrode materials with practical applications.

One-step facile synthesis of nickel-chromium layered double hydroxide nanoflakes for high-performance supercapacitors.

Project description:Rational design and synthesis of efficient electrodes with pronounced energy storage properties are crucial for supercapacitors. Herein, we report thin NiCr-layered double hydroxide nanoflakes (NiCr-LDNs) for a high-performance supercapacitor. These fabricated NiCr-LDNs, with various Ni2+/Cr3+ ratios, are one-step controllably synthesized through ultrasonication coupled with mechanical agitation, without hydrothermal treatment or extra exfoliation using organic solvents. Through comparison of different Ni2+/Cr3+ ratios, the Ni2Cr1-LDNs with a 4.7 nm thickness exhibited a superb capacitance performance of 1525 F g-1 at 2 A g-1, which is competitive with most previously reported layered double hydroxide (LDH)-based electrodes. These thin nanoflake structures have the potential to reduce the energy barrier and enhance the capture ability of electrolyte ions. Besides, an asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) assembled using Ni2Cr1-LDNs achieved a remarkable energy density of 55.22 W h kg-1 at a power density of 400 W kg-1 and maintained high specific capacitance (over 81%), even after 5000 cycles. This work offers an efficient and facile route to fabricating LDH nanoflakes for boosting energy storage capabilities.

Construction of layered hierarchical CoMoO<sub>4</sub> nanostructured arrays for supercapacitors with enhanced areal capacitance.

Project description:Layered hierarchical CoMoO4 nano-structured arrays grown on nickel foam were designed and synthesized by a two-step hydrothermal method following by annealing. With the increase in the nearly three times loading mass of active materials, the specific capacitance of the layered hierarchical CoMoO4 nano-structured arrays only shows a slight loss compared with the single-layer CoMoO4 nano-structured arrays, which dramatically improved the areal capacitance from 2.47 to 6.79 F cm-2. Also, the layered hierarchical CoMoO4 nano-structured arrays showed 94.8% capacitance retention after 2500 cycles, which is mainly due to the well-designed layered hierarchical structure and good conductivity.

Fast electrosynthesis of Fe-containing layered double hydroxide arrays toward highly efficient electrocatalytic oxidation reactions.

Project description:A new electrochemical synthesis route was developed for the fabrication of Fe-containing layered double hydroxide (MFe-LDHs, M = Ni, Co and Li) hierarchical nanoarrays, which exhibit highly-efficient electrocatalytic performances for the oxidation reactions of several small molecules (water, hydrazine, methanol and ethanol). Ultrathin MFe-LDH nanoplatelets (200-300 nm in lateral length; 8-12 nm in thickness) perpendicular to the substrate surface are directly prepared within hundreds of seconds (<300 s) under cathodic potential. The as-obtained NiFe-LDH nanoplatelet arrays display promising behavior in the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), giving rise to a rather low overpotential (0.224 V) at 10.0 mA cm-2 with largely enhanced stability, much superior to previously reported electro-oxidation catalysts as well as the state-of-the-art Ir/C catalyst. Furthermore, the MFe-LDH nanoplatelet arrays can also efficiently catalyze several other fuel molecules' oxidation (e.g., hydrazine, methanol and ethanol), delivering a satisfactory electrocatalytic activity and a high operation stability. In particular, this preparation method of Fe-containing LDHs is amenable to fast, effective and large-scale production, and shows promising applications in water splitting, fuel cells and other clean energy devices.

Converting Spent Cu/Fe Layered Double Hydroxide into Cr(VI) Reductant and Porous Carbon Material.

Project description:Recycling solid waste as functional materials is important for both environmental remediation and resource recycling. This study attempts to recycle spent Cu/Fe layered double hydroxide (Cu/Fe-LDH) which is generated from the adsorption of dyes by converting to Cr(VI) reductant and porous carbon material. Results showed that the obtained reductant was mainly composed of Fe0 and Cu0, and exhibited good reductive activity toward Cr(VI). The species of Fe0, Fe2+, Cu0, and Cu+ all favored the reduction of Cr(VI) according to X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis. During Cr(VI) removal, solution pH could increase to neutral which caused the metal ions to precipitate near completion. On the other hand, the spent Cu/Fe-LDH could be employed to produce porous carbon materials, and the generated waste metals solution herein could be reused for LDH synthesis. Specific surface areas of the obtained carbon materials varied from 141.3-744.2?m2/g with changes in adsorbed amount of dyes on the LDH. This study illustrates that all the components of wastes can be useful resources, offering a simple recycling approach for similar organic-inorganic solid wastes. This work also enlightens us that designing a proper initial product is crucial to make waste recycling simpler.

Porous Hybrids Structure between Silver Nanoparticle and Layered Double Hydroxide for Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy.

Project description:Silver nanoparticle (AgNP), in terms of antibacterial, catalytic, electronic, and optical applications, is an attractive material. Especially, when prepared to furnish sharp edge and systematic particle orientation on the substrate, AgNPs can take advantage of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). In this research, we suggested a synthetic method to immobilize the AgNP on metal oxide by utilizing Ag-thiolate and layered double hydroxide (LDH) as precursor and template, respectively. The layer-by-layer structure of LDH and Ag-thiolate transformed through reductive calcination to metal oxide and AgNP array. Physicochemical characterization, including powder X-ray diffraction, N2 adsorption-desorption, microscopies, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, revealed that the AgNP with sufficient crystallinity and particle gap was obtained at relatively high calcination temperature, ~600 °C. UV-vis diffusion reflectance spectroscopy showed that the calcination temperature affected particle size and electronic structure of AgNP. The prepared materials were subjected to SERS tests toward 4-nitrothiophenol (4-NTP). The sample obtained at 600 °C exhibited 50 times higher substrate enhancement factor (SEF) than the one obtained at 400 °C, suggesting that the calcination temperature was a determining parameter to enhance SERS activity in current synthetic condition.
