Improvement of Electrochemical Performance of ZnCo₂O₄@Co₉S₈ Nanosheets for Supercapacitors

Abstract

ZnCo 2 O 4 @Co 9 S 8 nanostructures were grown on the surface of Ni foam by facile hydrothermal method and subsequent thermal treatment process, thus increasing the active site on the surface of the material. After vulcanization treatment, the performance of the composite material has been significantly improved the product has a higher specific capacitance of 1018.2 F g −1 at 4 A g− 1 . This work demonstrates that ZnCo 2 O 4 @Co 9 S 8 nanostructures are highly desirable for application as advanced electrochemical electrode materials.
