Facile Electrodeposition of NiCo₂O₄ Nanosheets on Porous Carbonized Wood for Wood-Derived Asymmetric Supercapacitors.

ABSTRACT: Multichannel-porous carbon derived from wood can serve as a conductive substrate for fast charge transfer and ion diffusion, supporting the high-theory capacitance of pseudocapacitive materials. Herein, NiCo₂O₄ nanosheets, which are hierarchically porous, anchored on the surface of carbonized wood via electrodeposition for free-binder high-performance supercapacitor electrode materials, were proposed. Benefiting from the effectively alleviated NiCo₂O₄ nanosheets accumulation and sufficient active surface area for redox reaction, a N-doped wood-derived porous carbon-NiCo₂O₄ nanosheet hybrid material (NCNS-NCW) electrode exhibited a specific electric capacity of 1730 F g^-1 at 1 A g^-1 in 1 mol L^-1 KOH and splendid electrochemical firmness with 80% capacitance retention after cycles. Furthermore, an all-wood-based asymmetric supercapacitor based on NCNS-NCW//NCW was assembled and a high energy density of 56.1 Wh kg^-1 at a watt density of 349 W kg^-1 was achieved. Due to the great electrochemical performance of NCNS-NCW, we expect it to be used as an electrode material with great promise for energy storage equipment.

An Effective Electrodeposition Mode for Porous MnO₂/Ni Foam Composite for Asymmetric Supercapacitors.

Project description:Three kinds of MnO₂/Ni foam composite electrode with hierarchical meso-macroporous structures were prepared using potentiodynamic (PD), potentiostatic (PS), and a combination of PS and PD(PS + PD) modes of electrodeposition. The electrodeposition mode markedly influenced the surface morphological, textural, and supercapacitive properties of the MnO₂/Ni electrodes. The supercapacitive performance of the MnO₂/Ni electrode obtained via PS + PD(PS + PD(MnO₂/Ni)) was found to be superior to those of MnO₂/Ni electrodes obtained via PD and PS, respectively. Moreover, an asymmetric supercapacitor device, activated carbon (AC)/PS + PD(MnO₂/Ni), utilizing PS + PD(MnO₂/Ni) as a positive electrode and AC as a negative electrode, was fabricated. The device exhibited an energy density of 7.7 Wh·kg-1 at a power density of 600 W·kg-1 and superior cycling stability, retaining 98% of its initial capacity after 10,000 cycles. The good supercapacitive performance and excellent stability of the AC/PS + PD(MnO₂/Ni) device can be ascribed to its high surface area, hierarchical structure, and interconnected three-dimensional reticular configuration of the nickel metal support, which facilitates electrolyte ion intercalation and deintercalation at the electrode/electrolyte interface and mitigates volume change during repeated charge/discharge cycling. These results demonstrate the great potential of the combination of PS and PD modes for MnO₂ electrodeposition for the development of high-performance electrodes for supercapacitors.

Facile hydrothermal synthesis of porous MgCo2O4 nanoflakes as an electrode material for high-performance asymmetric supercapacitors.

Project description:In this work, porous MgCo2O4 nanoflakes (MgCo2O4 NFs) and MgCo2O4 nanocubes (MgCo2O4 NCs) have been successfully synthesized through a simple hydrothermal method combined with a post calcination process of the precursor in air. The morphology of the MgCo2O4 samples can be easily tuned by changing the hydrothermal temperature and reaction time, respectively. The porous MgCo2O4 NFs with an average pore size of 12.5 nm had a BET specific surface area up to 64.9 m2 g-1, which was larger than that of MgCo2O4 NCs (19.8 m2 g-1). The MgCo2O4 NFs delivered a specific capacitance of 734.1 F g-1 at 1 A g-1 and exhibited a considerable rate performance with 74.0% capacitance retention at 12 A g-1. About 94.2% of its original capacitance could be retained after 5000 charge-discharge cycles at a constant current density of 5 A g-1. An asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) was assembled by using MgCo2O4 NFs as the positive electrode and AC as the negative electrode, and the ASC had a wide operation voltage of 1.7 V and a high energy density of 33.0 W h kg-1 at a power density of 859.6 W kg-1. Such outstanding electrochemical performances make the MgCo2O4 NFs a promising candidate for supercapacitor applications. In addition, the simple and scalable synthesis method can be extended to the preparation of other metal oxide-based electrode materials.

A facile template-assisted electrodeposition approach to porous Cu/Cu2O nanowires.

Project description:Although nanoporous materials have been fabricated by electrodeposition using micelles of P-123 as structure-directing entities, the possible geometry obtained has been limited to nanoporous films. Herein, a novel dual-template assisted electrodeposition method to fabricate Cu/Cu2O porous nanowires (PNs) using polymeric micelles as a soft template and polycarbonate membranes as a hard template is reported. These nanowires consist of a porous skeleton with nanosized pores of 20 nm on average and crystallized ligaments. Morphology, composition, and crystal structure are systematically investigated and the formation mechanism is discussed. The as-deposited Cu/Cu2O PNs are found to exhibit high electrocatalytic activity toward electroreduction of nitrate. At an applied cathodic potential of 0.53 V vs. the reference reversible hydrogen electrode, the selectivity for NH3 conversion is 37.3%. Our approach is anticipated to work for the synthesis of PNs of other materials that could be obtained via electrochemical means.

Bimetallic NiCo2S4 Nanoneedles Anchored on Mesocarbon Microbeads as Advanced Electrodes for Asymmetric Supercapacitors.

Project description:Bimetallic Ni-Co sulfides are outstanding pseudocapacitive materials with high electrochemical activity and excellent energy storage performance as electrodes for high-performance supercapacitors. In this study, a novel urchin-like NiCo2S4@mesocarbon microbead (NCS@MCMB) composite with a core-shell structure was prepared by a facile two-step hydrothermal method. The highly conductive MCMBs offered abundant adsorption sites for the growth of NCS nanoneedles, which allowed each nanoneedle to fully unfold without aggregation, resulting in improved NCS utilization and efficient electron/ion transfer in the electrolyte. When applied as an electrode material for supercapacitors, the composite exhibited a maximum specific capacitance of 936 F g-1 at 1 A g-1 and a capacitance retention of 94% after 3000 cycles at 5 A g-1, because of the synergistic effect of MCMB and NCS. Moreover, we fabricated an asymmetric supercapacitor based on the NCS@MCMB composite, which exhibited enlarged voltage windows and could power a light-emitting diode device for several minutes, further demonstrating the exceptional electrochemical performance of the NCS@MCMB composite.

Facile synthesis of crumpled nitrogen-doped porous carbon nanosheets with ultrahigh surface area for high-performance supercapacitors.

Project description:Porous carbon nanosheets are currently considered excellent electrode materials for high-performance supercapacitors. However, their ease of agglomeration and stacking nature reduce the available surface area and limit the electrolyte ion diffusion and transport, thereby leading to low capacitance and poor rate capability. To solve these problems, we report an adenosine blowing and KOH activation combination strategy to prepare crumpled nitrogen-doped porous carbon nanosheets (CNPCNS), which exhibit much higher specific capacitance and rate capability compared to flat microporous carbon nanosheets. The method is simple and capable of one-step scalable production of CNPCNS with ultrathin crumpled nanosheets, ultrahigh specific surface area (SSA), microporous and mesoporous structure and high heteroatom content. The optimized CNPCNS-800 with a thickness of 1.59 nm has an ultrahigh SSA of 2756 m2 g-1, high mesoporosity of 62.9% and high heteroatom content (2.6 at% for N, 5.4 at% for O). Consequently, CNPCNS-800 presents an excellent capacitance, high rate capability and long cycling stability both in 6 M KOH and EMIMBF4. More importantly, the energy density of the CNPCNS-800-based supercapacitor in EMIMBF4 can reach up to 94.9 W h kg-1 at 875 W kg-1 and is still 61.2 W h kg-1 at 35 kW kg-1.

Facile one-pot synthesis of NiCo2Se4-rGO on Ni foam for high performance hybrid supercapacitors.

Project description:A facile, innovative synthesis for the fabrication of NiCo2Se4-rGO on a Ni foam nanocomposite via a simple hydrothermal reaction is proposed. The as-prepared NiCo2Se4-rGO@Ni foam electrode was tested through pxrd, TEM, SEM, and EDS to characterize the morphology and the purity of the material. The bimetallic electrode exhibited outstanding electrochemical performance with a high specific capacitance of 2038.55 F g-1 at 1 A g-1. NiCo2Se4-rGO@Ni foam exhibits an extensive cycling stability after 1000 cycles by retaining 90% of its initial capacity. A superior energy density of 67.01 W h kg-1 along with a high power density of 903.61 W kg-1 further proved the high performance of this electrode towards hybrid supercapacitors. The excellent electrochemical performance of NiCo2Se4-rGO@Ni foam can be explained through the high electrocatalytic activity of NiCo2Se4 in combination with reduced graphene oxide which increases conductivity and surface area of the electrode. This study proved that NiCo2Se4-rGO@Ni foam can be utilized as a high energy density-high power density electrode in energy storage applications.

Enhanced cycling stability of NiCo2S4@NiO core-shell nanowire arrays for all-solid-state asymmetric supercapacitors.

Project description:As a new class of pseudocapacitive material, metal sulfides possess high electrochemical performance. However, their cycling performance as conventional electrodes is rather poor for practical applications. In this article, we report an original composite electrode based on NiCo2S4@NiO core-shell nanowire arrays (NWAs) with enhanced cycling stability. This three-dimensional electrode also has a high specific capacitance of 12.2 F cm-2 at the current density of 1 mA cm-2 and excellent cycling stability (about 89% retention after 10,000 cycles). Moreover, an all-solid-state asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) device has been assembled with NiCo2S4@NiO NWAs as the positive electrode and active carbon (AC) as the negative electrode, delivering a high energy density of 30.38 W h kg-1 at 0.288 KW kg-1 and good cycling stability (about 109% retention after 5000 cycles). The results show that NiCo2S4@NiO NWAs are promising for high-performance supercapacitors with stable cycling based on the unique core-shell structure and well-designed combinations.

Nano-porous Al/Au skeleton to support MnO2 with enhanced performance and electrodeposition adhesion for flexible supercapacitors.

Project description:A nano-porous Al/Au skeleton is constructed to effectively improve the utilization rate of the active MnO2 and the overall adhesion between the current collector and MnO2 in an electrodeposition system. The Al/Au current collector is prepared by first forming a nano-porous structure on the surface of Al foil through etching modification, and subsequently coating an ultra-thin Au layer onto the Al foil. The active MnO2 is electrodeposited on the Al/Au current collector to fabricate a novel Al/Au/MnO2 electrode. The nano-porous skeleton supports MnO2 to grow autonomously inside-out. The ultra-thin Au layer acts as a transition layer to improve the overall conductivity of the current collector (0.35 Ω m-1) and to improve the adhesion with MnO2 as well. Owing to the highly porous structure, the electrochemical properties of the electrode are greatly improved, as evidenced by a remarkable specific capacitance of 222.13 mF cm-2 at 0.2 mA cm-2 and excellent rate capability of 63% capacitance retention at 6.0 mA cm-2. Furthermore, the assembled solid-state symmetric supercapacitor exhibits a high energy density of 0.68 mW h cm-3, excellent cyclic stability (86.3% capacitance retention after 2000 cycles), and prominent flexibility.

Facile preparation of nickel/carbonized wood nanocomposite for environmentally friendly supercapacitor electrodes.

Project description:We are reporting a facile way to prepare nickel/carbon nanocomposites from wood as a novel electrode material for supercapacitors. The surface morphology and the structure of the as-prepared electrodes were studied by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results indicate that after high-temperature carbonization process, the wood is converted into graphitic carbon with nickel nanoparticles uniformly distributed within the three dimensional structure of the wood. Electrochemical characterization such as cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and galvanostatic charge-discharge measurements were conducted. These results showed that the introduction of nickel into the carbonized wood improves the specific capacitance and the cyclic stability of the nanocomposite electrode over that of the pure carbonized wood electrode. The composite electrode displayed an enhanced capacitive performance of 3616 F/g at 8 A/g, and showed an excellent capacitance retention after 6000 charge-discharge cycles. These results endow the nickel nanoparticles impregnated carbonized wood with a great potential for future application in supercapacitors.

Porous Fe2O3 Nanorods on Hierarchical Porous Biomass Carbon as Advanced Anode for High-Energy-Density Asymmetric Supercapacitors.

Project description:In this study, a novel negative electrode material was prepared by aligning α-Fe2O3 nanorods on a hierarchical porous carbon (HPC) skeleton. The skeleton was derived from wheat flour by a facile hydrothermal route to enhance conductivity, improve surface properties, and achieve substantially good electrochemical performances. The α-Fe2O3/HPC electrode exhibits enhanced specific capacitance of 706 F g-1, which is twice higher than that of α-Fe2O3. The advanced α-Fe2O3/HPC//PANI/HPC asymmetrical supercapacitor was built with an expanded voltage of 2.0 V in 1 M Li2SO4, possessing a specific capacitance of 212 F g-1 at 1 A g-1 and a maximum energy density of 117 Wh kg-1 at 1.0 kW kg-1, along with an excellent stability of 5.8% decay in capacitance after 5,000 cycles. This study affords a simple process to develop asymmetric supercapacitors, which exhibit high electrochemical performances and are applicable in next-generation energy storage devices, based on α-Fe2O3 hybrid materials.
