Abstract

The composite α-Ni(OH)₂@CNT of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNT) and sheet-like α-Ni(OH)₂ was prepared by a one-step hydrothermal method. The structures and electrochemical properties of α-Ni(OH)₂@CNT and α-Ni(OH)₂ have been studied in detail. Since hydroxylated CNT was used in this study, CNT provides the dual role of dispersion and conductivity for α-Ni(OH)₂@CNT. The structural characterization shows that the thickness of α-Ni(OH)₂@CNT nanosheets is significantly lower than that of α-Ni(OH)₂, and the specific surface area and pore volume are significantly higher than that of α-Ni(OH)₂, which provides more active sites for the composites. The electrochemical test results show that the specific capacitance and rate performance of α-Ni(OH)₂@CNT are much higher than that of α-Ni(OH)₂. The asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) assembled with α-Ni(OH)₂@CNT and activated carbon (AC) can provide an energy density of 42.8 Wh kg⁻¹ at a power density of 800 W kg⁻¹, and the specific capacity can be maintained by 80% after 20,000 cycles, showing good application value. The theoretical calculation results further confirm that CNT increases the conductivity of α-Ni(OH)₂@CNT. This work provides a low cost and effective modification method for the practical application of α-Ni(OH)₂.

一步制备用于高性能不对称超级电容器的片状α-Ni(OH)2 复合多壁碳纳米管

通过一步水热法制备了由多壁碳纳米管（CNT）和片状α-Ni(OH)2组成的复合材料α-Ni(OH)2@CNT。详细研究了 α-Ni(OH)2@CNT和α-Ni(OH)2的结构和电化学特性。由于本研究中使用的是羟基化 CNT，因此 CNT 为 α-Ni(OH)2@CNT 提供了分散和导电的双重作用。结构表征结果表明，α-Ni(OH)2@CNT 纳米片的厚度明显低于α-Ni(OH)2，比表面积和孔体积明显高于α-Ni(OH)2，这为复合材料提供了更多的活性位点。电化学测试结果表明，α-Ni(OH)2@CNT 的比电容和速率性能远高于 α-Ni(OH)2。用α-Ni(OH)2@CNT和活性炭（AC）组装的不对称超级电容器（ASC）在功率密度为800 W kg-1的条件下，能量密度可达42.8 Wh kg-1，且比容量在20000次循环后仍能保持80%，具有良好的应用价值。理论计算结果进一步证实，CNT 提高了 α-Ni(OH)2@CNT 的导电性。这项工作为 α-Ni(OH)2的实际应用提供了一种低成本、有效的改性方法。
