Preparation of pure three-dimensional graphene (3DG) with high rate performance for supercapacitors is critical for fast rate charge/discharge. Here, 3DG was prepared via thermal annealing of freeze-dried reduced graphene oxide (RGO) hydrogel under inert gas protection. The formed 3DG as an electrode material for supercapacitors revealed a specific capacitance of 115 F·g−1 at a current density of 1 A·g−1, and a high capacitance retention of 70% as current density increased to 40 A·g−1. The excellent rate capability was mainly attributed to the reserved porous structure and higher electrical conductivity for 3DG after thermal reduction than its RGO hydrogel precursor.

We introduced a simple method to construct novel three-dimensional (3D) flexible hierarchical nanocomposites by combining (1D) NiCo2O4 nanowires with 2D reduced graphene oxide (rGO) sheets. The hierarchical nanocomposite structure of rGO-wrapped NiCo2O4 (rGO-NiCo2O4) was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectra, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results indicated that NiCo2O4 nanowires were successfully wrapped in rGO and the morphology of the rGO-NiCo2O4 showed a three-dimensional porous structure with NiCo2O4 being homogeneously distributed in the rGO. Given their apparent advantages, these two different nanostructures were evaluated as electrodes for high-performance supercapacitors. These electrodes exhibited a high capacitance of 1824.8 F·g–1 at a current density of 0.5 A·g–1, and an excellent cycling performance extending to 5000 cycles at a high current density of 4 A·g–1. Our results clearly demonstrate that rGO sheets on NiCo2O4 nanowires can substantially improve the capacitive performance of materials and ultimately increase the cycling stability of supercapacitors. The hierarchical binary nanocomposites show excellent electrochemical properties for energy storage applications, evidencing their potential application as supercapacitors.
