Electrode materials with a high specific capacitance, outstanding reversibility and excellent cycle stability are constantly pursued for supercapacitors. In this paper, we present an approach to improve the electrochemical performance by combining the advantages of both inorganic and organic. Ni-MnO2/PANi-co-PPy composites are synthesized, with the copolymer of aniline/pyrrole being coated on the surface of Ni-doped manganese dioxide nanospheres. The inorganic–organic composite enables a substantial increase in its specific capacitance and cycle stability. When the mass ratio of Ni-MnO2 to aniline and pyrrole mixed monomer is 1:5, the composite delivers high specific capacitance of 445.49[Formula: see text]F/g at a scan rate of 2[Formula: see text]mV/s and excellent cycle stability of 61.65% retention after 5000 cycles. The results indicate that the Ni-MnO2/PANi-co-PPy composites are promising electrode materials for future supercapacitors application.

Hierarchical NiMoO4/NiMoO4 nanoflowers were fabricated on highly conductive flexible nickel foam (NF) substrates using a facile hydrothermal method to achieve rapid charge-discharge ability, high energy density, long cycling lifespan, and higher flexibility for high-performance supercapacitor electrode materials. The synthesized composite electrode material, NF/NiMoO4/NiMoO4 with a nanoball-like NF/NiMoO4 structure on a NiMoO4 surface over a NF substrate, formed a three-dimensional interconnected porous network for high-performance electrodes. The novel NF/NiMoO4/NiMoO4 nanoflowers not only enhanced the large surface area and increased the electrochemical activity, but also provided an enhanced rapid ion diffusion path and reduced the charge transfer resistance of the entire electrode effectively. The NF/NiMoO4/NiMoO4 composite exhibited significantly improved supercapacitor performance in terms of a sustained cycling life, high specific capacitance, rapid charge-discharge capability, high energy density, and good rate capability. Electrochemical analysis of the NF/NiMoO4/NiMoO4 nanoflowers fabricated on the NF substrate revealed ultra-high electrochemical performance with a high specific capacitance of 2121 F g−1 at 12 mA g−1 in a 3 M KOH electrolyte and 98.7% capacitance retention after 3000 cycles at 14 mA g−1. This performance was superior to the NF/NiMoO4 nanoball electrode (1672 F g−1 at 12 mA g−1 and capacitance retention 93.4% cycles). Most importantly, the SC (NF/NiMoO4/NiMoO4) device displayed a maximum energy density of 47.13 W h kg−1, which was significantly higher than that of NF/NiMoO4 (37.1 W h kg−1). Overall, the NF/NiMoO4/NiMoO4 composite is a suitable material for supercapacitor applications.
