Multi-layer NixZn1−xS/Ni foam composites were synthesized by a one-step hydrothermal reaction generating in situ growth on the Ni foam. The doping of Zn into the NixZn1−xS/Ni composite constructs the multi-layer nanostructure. The as-fabricated Ni1−xZnxS/Ni foam-2 h supercapacitor electrode shows outstanding rate properties.

The Ni(OH)2 hexagonal platelets were in situ fabricated on Ni foam as a binder-free supercapacitor electrode material with high performance and excellent cycling stability by a one-step, cost-effective, green hydrothermal treatment of three-dimensional (3D) Ni foam in a 15 wt% H2O2 aqueous solution.

AbstractHerein, we demonstrate the fabrication of highly capacitive activated carbon (AC) using a bio-waste Kusha grass (Desmostachya bipinnata), by employing a chemical process followed by activation through KOH. The as-synthesized few-layered activated carbon has been confirmed through X-ray powder diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and Raman spectroscopy techniques. The chemical environment of the as-prepared sample has been accessed through FTIR and UV–visible spectroscopy. The surface area and porosity of the as-synthesized material have been accessed through the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller method. All the electrochemical measurements have been performed through cyclic voltammetry and galvanometric charging/discharging (GCD) method, but primarily, we focus on GCD due to the accuracy of the technique. Moreover, the as-synthesized AC material shows a maximum specific capacitance as 218 F g−1 in the potential window ranging from − 0.35 to + 0.45 V. Also, the AC exhibits an excellent energy density of ~ 19.3 Wh kg−1 and power density of ~ 277.92 W kg−1, respectively, in the same operating potential window. It has also shown very good capacitance retention capability even after 5000th cycles. The fabricated supercapacitor shows a good energy density and power density, respectively, and good retention in capacitance at remarkably higher charging/discharging rates with excellent cycling stability. Henceforth, bio-waste Kusha grass-derived activated carbon (DP-AC) shows good promise and can be applied in supercapacitor applications due to its outstanding electrochemical properties. Herein, we envision that our results illustrate a simple and innovative approach to synthesize a bio-waste Kusha grass-derived activated carbon (DP-AC) as an emerging supercapacitor electrode material and widen its practical application in electrochemical energy storage fields.

Nickel oxide/Ni foam composite was studied as an electrode for electrochemical capacitors. The material has been processed by a simple, green and cost-effective electrophoretic deposition (EPD) method directly from the post-reaction medium in an one-pot synthesis and its later heat treatment.NiO films were obtained after calcination (325 and 450ᵒC) of β-Ni(OH)2deposits. β-Ni(OH)2nanoplatelets were produced by chemical precipitation of Ni precursors and the aid of ultrasound, free of modifiers. The stabilization of the hydroxide powder in suspension in different mixtures of Ethanol:Water (4:1, 9:1 and 19:1) and the optimization of the EPD parameters allowed coating the commercial Ni foams via colloidal processing.Electrochemical properties of the electrodes were evaluated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) showing significant differences in terms of specific capacitance of 192 and 79 F/g for the electrodes calcined at 325 and 450ᵒC, respectively.
