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.

Silver nanowire has potential applications on transparent conducting film and electrode of electrochemical capacitor due to its excellent conductivity. Transparent conducting film (G-film) was prepared by coating silver nanowires on glass substrate using Meyer rod method, which exhibited better performance than carbon nanotube and graphene. The conductivity of G-film can be improved by increasing sintering temperature. Electrode of electrochemical capacitor (I-film) was fabricated through the same method with G-film on indium tin oxide (ITO). CV curves of I-film under different scanning rates had obvious redox peaks, which indicated that I-film exhibited excellent electrochemical pseudocapacitance performance and good reversibility during charge/discharge process. In addition, the specific capacitance of I-film was measured by galvanostatic charge/discharge experiments, indicating that I-film exhibits high special capacitance and excellent electrochemical stability.

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.

Cathode materials with high capacity and cyclic durability are urgently needed for capacitive deionization . Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 is an emerging pseudocapacitive candidate for this process on account of its high capacity and Na + reversible insertion, while it suffers from the intrinsic low electrical conductivity and small electrolyte-accessible surface area. Herein, a sea urchin-like Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 @carbon (NVP@C) compound material was synthesized from MXene-V 2 C via hydrothermal method followed by annealing treatment, and then assembled as capacitive deionization (CDI) electrode material . Benefiting from three-dimensional sea urchin-like structure, where the nanoneedles of NVP@C serve as fast transport channel for Na + , NVP@C performed high specific capacity (437 F g −1 at 5 mV s −1 ) and fast ionic diffusion kinetics. Moreover, the NVP@C showed attractive desalination performance as cathode material for CDI, achieving a remarkable adsorption capacity of 74.0 mg g −1 in a NaCl salt solution (1000 mg L −1 ) and long life cycle stability. The present work provides a novel perspective to construct practical redox-active and stable CDI electrode with 3D structure from MXene for highly capacitive and durable desalination application .

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%.

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.

Polypyrrole/aligned carbon nanotubes (PPy/ACNTs) core-shell nanotube arrays on metal foil have been fabricated through an electrochemical method. The as-prepared PPy/ACNTs electrode materials with novel nanostructure , which is very conducive to the transmission of electrons and ions, possess greatly improved electrochemical performance. The specific capacitances of PPy/ACNTs electrode materials can reach 505 F/g ( vs. the both mass of PPy and ACNTs) in three-electrode system. In two-electrode system, the specific capacitances of the PPy/ACNTs electrode materials can reach 456 F/g ( vs. the both mass of PPy and ACNTs). The PPy/ACNTs electrode materials also exhibit greatly improved rate capability and superior cycling performance.

Nowadays, energy conversion devices have gradually gained attention while vigorously developing clean energy. Carbon materials are promising candidates for supercapacitors , but two issues have plagued the researchers. 1) Does the cation radius in the neutral electrolyte significantly impact the electrochemical performance of carbon materials? 2) How to introduce heteroatoms while constructing hollow structures in carbon spheres. This work proposes a facile template free strategy that uses aniline and pyrrole as nitrogen sources to synthesize carbon sphere precursors. High-temperature carbonization combined with alkali treatment leads to the formation of N-doped hollow porous carbon spheres. Robust wall structure (thickness is about 60–80 nm) and ideal surface structure (the specific surface area is 1079.9 m 2 g −1 ) endow the carbon spheres with excellent electrochemical performance and outstanding cycle stability. The specific capacitance of the carbon spheres in Li 2 SO 4 and Na 2 SO 4 electrolytes under negative working potential (−0.8–0 V) are 378.4 and 367.6 F g −1 , respectively, at a current density of 1 A g −1 . After 5000 cycles, the capacitance retentions are 87.1% and 94.8% in Li 2 SO 4 and Na 2 SO 4 electrolytes. We inferred that the cation radius has a negligible effect on the specific capacitance of carbon materials, but has a more significant effect on the cycling stability and capacitance rate performance. It is hoped that this work can provide a reference for the subsequent construction of N-doped hollow carbon spheres and reasonable selection of electrolytes.

Anodic TiO 2 nanotubes have been intensively studied for the application in supercapacitors , but the formation of nanograss is often avoided for the belief that it may retard capacitive performance. We fabricate TiO 2 nanotubes topped with nanograss by H 3 PO 4 solution soaking and hydrogenation doping, which in fact increases the capacitance of nanotubes in a fast and convenient way. The new structure exhibits an enhanced areal capacitance by up to 67.7% and by up to 23.5% after 2000 times of cycling. The capacitance generally increases with the nanotube length and reaches the maximum with an optimal nanograss length. The electric charge during hydrogenation doping is determined to quantify the general doping effect. Compared with ordinary nanotubes, nanograss has larger contact area with electrolyte during doping. Therefore, the grass-topped structure yields more electric charge and Ti 3+ during doping, which attributes to the improved capacitance.

Electrochemical energy storage (EES) devices that combine high-performance are essential to resolve the extreme shortage of non-renewable energy sources and environmental issues. Nickel oxide (NiO) is considered to be a promising EES cathode material because of its ultra-high theoretical specific capacitance, whereas the practical applications are greatly limited with poor rate and cycle performance. Herein, we report the yolk-shelled NiO/Ni composites (YS NiO/Ni) that exhibit good charge storage capability in the aqueous electrolyte with high specific capacitance (2207.3 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 ), exceptional rate capability, and ultra-high cycling stability (95.8% retention after 10,000 cycles). The superior property can be ascribed to the special yolk-shelled structure that exposes more redox reaction active sites, and the associate Ni nanoparticles with flower-like NiO which can improve electron transfer as current collectors.
