We successfully synthesize hierarchical Co3O4@Co9S8 nanowires on nickel foam by a facile two-step method. The as-prepared samples show one-dimensional nanowires decorated with uneven surface after vulcanization process with pure Co3O4 nanowires to form Co3O4 @Co9S8 composite, which exhibit high specific capacitance of 2667 F g–1 at 12 A g–1, maintaining 76.78% capacitance retention of initial capacitance. The assembled asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) device shows excellent capability of energy storage and power output with an energy density of 267.9 mW h cm–3 at power density of 7.5 W cm–3 and 187.5 mW h cm–3 at 15 W cm–3. In addition, it exhibits excellent cycling capability with 84.2% retention after 6000 cycles. Therefore, the as-prepared material can be used as promising energy storage materials.

We successfully fabricate hierarchical ZnCo2O4@Co3S4 nanowires directly supported on nickel foam by a facile hydrothermal route. The as-synthesized product possesses large specific surface area and short reaction path, which result in superior electrochemical performances as the electrode of supercapacitor (SC). The obtained electrode material shows high area capacitance of 2.02 C g-1 at current density of 0.8 A g-1 with 95.3% retention of initial capacitance after 6000 cycles. Moreover, the assembled asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) device using ZnCo2O4@Co3S4 nanowires as anode material displays noticeable electrochemical capability with an energy density of 79.8 mW h g-1 at power density of 1795 W kg-1 and 73.2 mW h g-1 at 9760 W kg-1. In addition, the device shows remarkable cycling capability, maintaining 82.2% retention after long-term cycles. It reveals the as-fabricated material would be promising energy storage materials.

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.
