Preparation of Ni(OH)2/Ni3S2/NF composite electrode materials doped with rGO

rGO/Ni(OH) 2 /Ni 3 S 2 composite electrode materials were successfully synthesized on Ni foam (NF) by a two-step hydrothermal process and subsequent alkalization treatment. To investigate the influence of reaction time in the secondary hydrothermal process, three different hydrothermal times (4 h, 6 h, 8 h) were set. The results showed that the electrode had the highest specific capacitance of 2260 F·g −1 at 1 A·g −1 at the hydrothermal reaction time of 6 h, (4 h: 1807.8 F·g −1 , 8 h: 1358.3 F·g −1 ). In addition, it exhibited prominent rating capability and cycling stability, with 41.7% retention at 10 A·g −1 and 137.9% retention after 5000 cycles at 50 mV⋅s −1 . Finally, the assembled hybrid supercapacitor (HSC) with rGO/Ni(OH) 2 /Ni 3 S 2 /NF (6 h) and active carbon displayed outstanding electrochemical performance. When the power density was 400.5 W⋅kg −1 , it showed the energy density (25.2 Wh⋅kg −1 ), proving its potential as electrode materials for HSC devices.
