Facile In Situ Synthesis of Co(OH)(2)–Ni(3)S(2) Nanowires on Ni Foam for Use in High-Energy-Density Supercapacitors
Ni(3)S(2) nanowires were synthesized in situ using a one-pot hydrothermal reaction on Ni foam (NF) for use in supercapacitors as a positive electrode, and various contents (0.3−0.6 mmol) of Co(OH)(2) shells were coated onto the surfaces of the Ni(3)S(2) nanowire cores to improve the electrochemical...

description | Ni(3)S(2) nanowires were synthesized in situ using a one-pot hydrothermal reaction on Ni foam (NF) for use in supercapacitors as a positive electrode, and various contents (0.3−0.6 mmol) of Co(OH)(2) shells were coated onto the surfaces of the Ni(3)S(2) nanowire cores to improve the electrochemical properties. The Ni(3)S(2) nanowires were uniformly formed on the smooth NF surface, and the Co(OH)(2) shell was formed on the Ni(3)S(2) nanowire surface. By direct NF participation as a reactant without adding any other Ni source, Ni(3)S(2) was formed more closely to the NF surface, and the Co(OH)(2) shell suppressed the loss of active material during charging–discharging, yielding excellent electrochemical properties. The Co(OH)(2)–Ni(3)S(2)/Ni electrode produced using 0.5 mmol Co(OH)(2) (Co(0.5)–Ni(3)S(2)/Ni) exhibited a high specific capacitance of 1837 F g(−1) (16.07 F cm(−2)) at a current density of 5 mA cm(−2), and maintained a capacitance of 583 F g(−1) (16.07 F cm(−2)) at a much higher current density of 50 mA cm(−2). An asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) with Co(OH)(2)–Ni(3)S(2) and active carbon displayed a high-power density of 1036 kW kg(−1) at an energy density of 43 W h kg(−1) with good cycling stability, indicating its suitability for use in energy storage applications. Thus, the newly developed core–shell structure, Co(OH)(2)–Ni(3)S(2), was shown to be efficient at improving the electrochemical performance. |
