Abstract
Global energy crisis imposes immense obstacles leading towards development of innovative devices, and supercapacitors (SCs) are thought to be a viable energy storage technology. The engineering of nanostructured materials with a distinct and consistent morphological design is seen as a better option for various range of electrochemical energy sources. This study reports novel binder-free Ni3S2/CoS2 electrode material that acquires higher energy, higher energy density, as well as its simple preparation method, low cost, and earth–abundant resources. The morphological, structural, and textural characteristics resulted in surface area of 46 m2 g−1 of Ni3S2/CoS2 that will increase active sites also. The synthesized nanocomposite has particle size of 41.1 nm that leads to enhanced active sites and greater surface area as confirmed through BET analysis. Ni3S2/CoS2 nanocomposite has high specific capacity around 828.14 F g−1 at 5 mV s−1 sweep rate using 2 M KOH, a high energy density around 115.01 Wh kg−1, and power density of 1000 Wh kg−1. Ni3S2/CoS2 acquires higher ionic conductivity of 5 S m−1, this will enhance the inter-layer transference of electrons, and these results perfectly correlates with EIS, resulting in charge transfer resistance value of 0.9 Ω for nano-composite. These enhanced electrochemical capabilities of Ni3S2/CoS2 hold significant potential in practical viability.
期刊介绍:
Ceramics International covers the science of advanced ceramic materials. The journal encourages contributions that demonstrate how an understanding of the basic chemical and physical phenomena may direct materials design and stimulate ideas for new or improved processing techniques, in order to obtain materials with desired structural features and properties.
Ceramics International covers oxide and non-oxide ceramics, functional glasses, glass ceramics, amorphous inorganic non-metallic materials (and their combinations with metal and organic materials), in the form of particulates, dense or porous bodies, thin/thick films and laminated, graded and composite structures. Process related topics such as ceramic-ceramic joints or joining ceramics with dissimilar materials, as well as surface finishing and conditioning are also covered. Besides traditional processing techniques, manufacturing routes of interest include innovative procedures benefiting from externally applied stresses, electromagnetic fields and energetic beams, as well as top-down and self-assembly nanotechnology approaches. In addition, the journal welcomes submissions on bio-inspired and bio-enabled materials designs, experimentally validated multi scale modelling and simulation for materials design, and the use of the most advanced chemical and physical characterization techniques of structure, properties and behaviour.
Technologically relevant low-dimensional systems are a particular focus of Ceramics International. These include 0, 1 and 2-D nanomaterials (also covering CNTs, graphene and related materials, and diamond-like carbons), their nanocomposites, as well as nano-hybrids and hierarchical multifunctional nanostructures that might integrate molecular, biological and electronic components.
