The nickel-based metallic organic framework (Ni-MOF) [Ni 2 (OH) 2 (C 8 H 4 O 4 )] material with a hierarchical microblocks structure is efficiently synthesized in 2 h by the ultrasonic method. At the moment Ni-MOF is used as the electrode materials and the supercapacitors (SCs) perform very well with great electrochemical capacity which exhibited particular electric capacitance of 631 C g −1 at a current density of 1 A g −1 . This is one of the highest performances and the shortest synthesis time reported so far for MOFs. Besides, there is a battery – SC hybrid SC assembled by using Ni-MOF and activated carbon. On the condition of having a power density of 302.2 W kg −1 with the voltage window of 1.2 V, the SC produces an energy density of 28.5 W h kg −1 . During the same period, the SC maintains outstanding cycling stability capacitance retention of 85.5% after 3000 cycles at current density of 10 A g −1 . The great electrochemical capability is due to the distinct crystal texture and particular morphological feature. Herein, it is displayed that the ultrasonic method is a fast and effective approach for preparing Ni-MOF SC electrode materials.

Carbon nanomaterials that are electrochemically bifunctional and active in supercapacitor and hydrogen-evolution-reaction (HER) applications have attracted recent research attention. We have prepared porous carbon spheres - doped Ni, Co - alloys by using a hydrothermal method with melamine and pectin as precursors and with the addition of nickel nitrate and cobalt nitrate. The corresponding materials exhibit good electrochemical performance and excellent electrocatalytic activity for HER. The overpotential (OP) of the as-prepared materials can achieve 240 mV keeping a Tafel slope (TS) of 55 mV dec −1 at 10 mA cm −2 in an acid (0.5 M H 2 SO 4 ) solution. The corresponding samples maintain stability after 24 h and 5000 cycles in the chronovoltage and cyclic voltammetry methods, respectively. When the as-prepared materials are oxidized by 30% H 2 O 2 for 12 h, the corresponding as-prepared oxidation samples exhibit excellent electrochemical performance in a supercapacitor application. The specific capacitance (SC) of the as-obtained materials reaches 312 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 with decent rate capability and cyclic stability. This work provides new applications for bifunctional electrochemically active materials.

Carbon nanotube (CNT) has been intensively studied as supercapacitor electrode materials due to their high mechanical strength and excellent electrical conductivity. However, CNT with limited accessible surface area has low specific capacitance, which limits its application and development in supercapacitor. Herein, we have designed a thin N-doped porous carbon layer-modified CNT nanocomposite by template-free method. In this process, 3-aminophenol and formaldehyde rapidly self-assemble on the CNT in the presence of cationic surfactant CTAB, forming the composite of 3-aminophenol/formaldehyde (3-AF) resin and CNT. Due to the different polymerization degree of inside 3-AF resin, the soluble 3-AF resin oligomer was removed by acetone to form porous 3-AF resin and CNT@N-doped porous carbon (CNT@N-PC) was obtained by annealing process. The CNT@N-PC exhibited abundant porous structure, high specific surface area of 940 m 2 g −1 , excellent specific capacitance value of 224 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 and good cycle stability, demonstrating its potential as supercapacitor electrode materials.

Design and fabrication of 2D multi-metal oxalate materials with desired electrochemical activities are highly needed in electrocatalysis and supercapacitors . Herein, assisted by the deep eutectic solvothermal (DES) method, multi-metal oxalate consisting of Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn with different morphology was the controlled synthesis. It was found that the structure and composition of DES can control the nucleation and growth of multi-metal oxalate. High molecular PEG and gradually slow-release oxalic acid are in favor of the formation of 2D structure, while the low molecular EG and abundant oxalic acid are positive for the formation of 3D nanoparticles. The properties of the obtained multi-metal oxalates are confirmed by multi-analysis, which involves the single Ni-oxalate phase, morphological evolution ranging from particles to nanosheets, and complex composition up to five metal elements including Fe, Co, Ni, Cu as well as Zn. Notably, the well-designed 2D (FeCoNiCuZn)(C 2 O 4 )·2H 2 O nanosheets exhibit an ultralow overpotential of 334 mV at 100 mA cm −2 for OER as electrocatalyst with prolonged durability over 30 h at 10 mA cm −2 and a high specific capacity of 1337 C g −1 for aqueous supercapacitor.

The construction of effective nano-microstructures electrode has been a tireless pursuit in the energy storage field. Herein, Controllable construction of diversified morphologies NiCo 2 O 4 nanomaterials by tuning the dielectric constant and viscosity of the mixed solvent. We employed different solvent compositions as deionized water (DI), DI:Ethanol (1:1), DI: Isopropanol (1:1), DI: Propylene glycol (1:1), DI: Butanediol (1:1). In mixed aqueous solvents with low dielectric constants of ethanol and isopropanol, metal ions diffuse well and the nanomaterials tend to construct sheet-like nanostructures whereas high viscosity of the propylene glycol and butanediol solution will slow down the rate of metal ion diffusion, which only grow uni-directionally to form rod-like nanostructures. The formed ear-shaped NiCo 2 O 4 nanostructures in V propylene glycol : V H2O = 1 : 1 mixed solvent have a large specific surface area and provide more electrochemically active sites, which facilitates effectively access electrolytes and thus accelerates the redox reaction rate. The resulting NiCo 2 O 4 nanoears exhibits favorable capacity of 251 mAh g −1 and excellent rate performance with a 73.0% capacity retention at 20 A g −1 . More importantly, the asymmetric supercapacitors assembled with the preferred NiCo 2 O 4 nanoears and active carbon (AC) reveal excellent electrochemical performance at operating potential of 1.6 V, great specific capacity (58.0 mAh g −1 ), energy and power density of 46.4 Wh kg −1 at 801 W kg −1 and a specific capacity retention rate of 90.7% after 5000 cycles. This work provides a new perspective for the controllable construction of new micro-nanostructure materials.

Nanostructure of ordered polyaniline-graphene (PANI-rGO PMAS ) hybrid nanomaterials is assembled based on poly(2-methoxyaniline-5-sulfonic acid) (PMAS) functionalized reduced graphene oxide (rGO PMAS ) nanosheets. The presence of PMAS not only improves dispersibility of reduced graphene oxide nanosheets, but also plays a key role for heterogeneous nucleation of polyaniline (PANI) nanorods . The formation mechanism of ordered PANI-rGO PMAS hybrid nanomaterials was studied in details by using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry (UV–vis). The conductivity of PANI-rGO PMAS hybrid with 17 wt% rGO PMAS is as high as 4480 S/m, compared with 2.93 S/m for pure PANI. The cyclic voltammetry tests indicate that, PANI-rGO PMAS containing 2 wt% rGO PMAS possesses fast response to redox reactions and excellent reversible stability. It has a high specific capacitance of 385 F g −1 at the scan rate of 10 mV s −1 with potential ranges from −0.2 to 0.8 V. This ordered polyaniline-graphene hybrid has potential applications for flexible supercapacitors, sensors, batteries, electromagnetic materials and thermoelectric materials, etc.

The increasing demand for supercapacitors with high energy and power density has attracted extensive attention in designing advanced carbon materials with high accessible surface area, hierarchical porosity , and 2D/3D morphology. Here, we report a new approach to tune the morphology and structure of the nanocarbons by using methyl cellulose as the precursor. Due to the varying effect of different activating agents, the interconnected sheet-like carbon with a high surface area of up to 2285 m 2 g −1 and a thickness down to ∼4 nm can be obtained. These important characteristics make the nanocarbons demonstrate a high capacitance of 144 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 and 20 °C, and an excellent capacitance retention ratio of 64% at 100 A g −1 in ionic liquid . Because of the high fraction of meso/macropores for nanocarbons, an outstanding capacitance of 116 F g −1 can be achieved at 0 °C, with a high capacitance retention ratio of 39% at 100 A g −1 . A high energy of 16–17 and 9–10 W h kg −1 can be maintained at 20 and 0 °C when the supercapacitor is charged in less than 1s. The excellent electrochemical response of nanocarbons suggests that the proposed preparation process is promising for developing advanced carbon electrodes.

Biomass-derived carbons have been extensively researched as electrode material for energy storage and conversion recently. However, most of the previous works convert crude biomass directly into carbon and the electrochemical capacitances for the resultant carbons are quite often underestimated as well as large variations in capacitances exist in literatures due to the complex nature of biomass, which practically hinder their applications. In this work, polysaccharide nanofibers were extracted from an inexpensive natural fungus using a hydrothermal method and were converted to porous carbon nanofibers (CNFs) by potassium hydroxide activation. The porous carbons were assembled into symmetric supercapacitors using both potassium hydroxide and an ionic liquid (IL) as electrolytes. Solid state nuclear magnetic resonance characterization showed that the micropores of the as-prepared carbons are accessible to the IL electrolyte when uncharged and thus high capacitance is expected. It is found in both electrolytes the electrochemical capacitances of CNFs are significantly higher than those of the porous carbon derived directly from the crude fungus. Furthermore, the CNFs delivered an extraordinary energy density of 92.3 Wh kg −1 in the IL electrolyte, making it a promising candidate for electrode materials for supercapacitors.

Polyaniline doped with lignosulfonate (PANI/LGS) was prepared by using a facile oxidative polymerization of aniline with (NH4)2S2O8 as an oxidant, and the structure and morphology of PANI/LGS were investigated. As an active material for supercapacitors, the capacity retention rate of PANI/LGS was 75.1% with a growth of current density from 0.2 to 10 A g−1, indicating a high rate performance, and that of PANI was only 38.3%. For PANI/LGS, a specific capacitance of 377.2 F g−1 remained at 10 A g−1, and that of PANI was 183.7 F g−1. Moreover, the cycling stability was also measured in a two-electrode symmetrical capacitor at a current density of 1.0 A g−1. The capacity retention rate of PANI/LGS was 74.3% after 10 000 cycles, and that of PANI was 52.8%.

A poor electrical conductivity and short cycle life limits the wide application of transition metal oxides in energy storage applications. In this study, yolk-shell structured CuCo 2 S 4 was grown on NiO nanosheets (NiO@CuCo 2 S 4 ) via a hydrothermal method and vulcanization , which combined the synergistic interactions between Ni, Co, and Cu. The effect of varying the amount of the vulcanizing agent (thiourea) on the electrochemical performance of NiO@CuCo 2 S 4 was also investigated. Moreover, the amount of thiourea not only tuned the morphology of the composite, but significantly influenced its electrochemical performance. When the Cu 2+ : Co 2+ : thiourea molar ratio in the precursor solution was 1:2:6, the obtained NiO@CuCo 2 S 4 exhibited the best electrochemical performance of the various systems examined, with a specific capacitance of 1658 F g −1 being achieved at 1 A g −1 . Density functional theory calculations further confirmed the excellent synergistic effect between NiO and CuCo 2 S 4 . In addition, the asymmetric supercapacitor composed of a NiO@CuCo 2 S 4 positive electrode reached an ultrahigh energy density of 73 Wh kg −1 at a power density of 802 W kg −1 , as well as excellent cycling stability (i.e., 91% capacitance retention after 5000 cycles). These results suggest that NiO@CuCo 2 S 4 is a promising candidate for use in energy storage applications.

Low-cost and resourceful transition metal phosphides (TMPs), as a new kind of pseudocapacitive materials, have received considerable interest for electrochemical energy storage/conversion. Combination of TMPs and carbon nanostructures is supposed to greatly improve the charge storage capability due to the synergistic effect. In this work, nickel cobalt phosphides nanosheets supported by P doped C spheres (P-CSs@Ni-Co-P NSs) composites with different Ni/Co molar ratios (1:0, 1:1, 1:2, 1:4 and 0:1) were prepared by in-situ bifunctional phosphorization of the as-synthesized CSs@Ni-Co-OH NSs precursor. The optimized 3D networked mesoporous P-CSs@Ni 1 -Co 2 -P NSs electrode exhibits a remarkable specific capacitance of 1040.3 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 and excellent rate capability with a capacitance retention of 49.2% even at 30 A g −1 , which are much higher than those of A-CSs@Ni 1 -Co 2 -O NSs (870.5 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 , 37.4% at 30 A g −1 ) and Ni 1 -Co 2 -P NSs (500.5 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 , 40.0% at 30 A g −1 ). The improved supercapacitive performances are attributed to the 3D mesoporous nanosheets network and bifunctional phosphorization treatment which lead to enhancement of conductivity. Meanwhile, Ni-Co bimetallic phosphide with abundant oxidation states facilitates redox charge transfer efficiently. Furthermore, P-CSs@Ni 1 -Co 2 -P NSs assembled asymmetric supercapacitors (ASC) achieve outstanding cycling stability with no decay of capacitance after 20000 cycles. Additionally, the charge storage kinetic of the device is further investigated, indicating that fast surface-control capacitive behavior is dominant at high current densities.

Transition trimetallic sulfide NiCoMn–S attracts great attention due to its high specific capacity for hybrid supercapacitors , as well as Ti 3 C 2 is considered essentially as a potential new electrode material with iconic two-dimensional layered structure and excellent conductivity. Herein, NiCoMn–S nanoparticles are composited with two-dimensional layered Ti 3 C 2 via simple one-step hydrothermal method , which is first applied as positive electrode in hybrid supercapacitors (HSCs). A large number of NiCoMn–S nanoparticles distribute on the surface of Ti 3 C 2 and even insert into the Ti 3 C 2 layers, providing abundant electrochemical active sites for redox reaction and enhancing the mechanical stability for composites. Moreover, the NiCoMn–S/Ti 3 C 2 composites show lower charge-transfer resistance than pure NiCoMn–S, illustrating that the two-dimensional layered structure of Ti 3 C 2 improve the conductivity and supply additional electronic channels for ion transportation. The NiCoMn–S/Ti 3 C 2 -3.4% delivers a specific capacity of 347.1 C g −1 at a specific density of 1 A g −1 , which is 28% higher than that of pure NiCoMn–S (270.2 C g −1 at 1 A g −1 ). Finally, a hybrid supercapacitor (HSC) is assembled by using NiCoMn–S/Ti 3 C 2 -3.4% as positive electrode and RGO as negative electrode, realizing a specific capacity of 164.3 C g −1 at 1 A g −1 and high specific energy of 16.2 Wh kg −1 at a specific power of 15 kW kg −1 .
