Abstract

The morphology of MnCo2O4 has a significant effect on the electrochemical performance. In this paper, urchin-like MnCo2O4 nanospheres was successfully fabricated by a simple hydrothermal process and post-annealing treatment. The effects of addition of surfactant (Hexadecy ltrimethyl ammonium bromide) on the crystal structure, surface morphology and electrochemical performance of MnCo2O4 have been investigated. The results show that all the synthesized manganese cobalt oxides are composed of cubic spinel MnCo2O4. The addition of surfactant leads to the change of the morphology of MnCo2O4 from nanoarray to urchin-like nanospheres and increases the specific surface area, which is beneficial to improve the electrochemical performance of the MnCo2O4 electrode. The electrochemical test reveals that the urchin-like MnCo2O4 nanospheres delivered a high specific capacity of 2019 F/g at a 1 A/g and 1144 F/g at 5 A/g, respectively. The specific capacity of MnCo2O4 electrode reaches 512 F/g at 10 A/g and retains 96 % of the initial capacity after 2000 cycles at 10 A/g, which maintains an extraordinary cycling performance. In addition, an asymmetric supercapacitor (MnCo2O4//AC) with urchin-like MnCo2O4 nanospheres as a cathode and activated carbon (AC) as an anode was also assembled. Impressively, the assembled MnCo2O4//AC asymmetric supercapacitor exhibits a high energy density of 69 Wh/kg at a power density of 793 W/kg. The above research shows that the urchin-like MnCo2O4 nanospheres synthesized by adding surfactants are expected to be excellent high-performance energy storage electrode materials, which provides a new strategy for the synthesis of high-capacity nanoelectrode materials.

合成作为超级电容器电极材料的海胆状 MnCo2O4 纳米球
MnCo2O4 的形态对其电化学性能有重要影响。本文通过简单的水热工艺和退火后处理,成功制备了海胆状 MnCo2O4 纳米球。研究了表面活性剂(十六烷基三甲基溴化铵)的添加对 MnCo2O4 晶体结构、表面形貌和电化学性能的影响。结果表明,所有合成的锰钴氧化物都由立方尖晶石 MnCo2O4 组成。表面活性剂的加入使锰钴氧化物的形貌由纳米阵列变为海胆状纳米球,增加了比表面积,有利于提高锰钴氧化物电极的电化学性能。电化学测试表明,海胆状 MnCo2O4 纳米球在 1 A/g 和 5 A/g 时的比容量分别为 2019 F/g 和 1144 F/g。MnCo2O4 电极的比容量在 10 A/g 时达到 512 F/g,并且在 10 A/g 下循环 2000 次后仍能保持 96% 的初始容量,保持了非凡的循环性能。此外,还组装了以海胆状 MnCo2O4 纳米球为阴极、活性炭(AC)为阳极的不对称超级电容器(MnCo2O4//AC)。令人印象深刻的是,组装好的 MnCo2O4//AC 不对称超级电容器在功率密度为 793 W/kg 时,能量密度高达 69 Wh/kg。上述研究表明,通过添加表面活性剂合成的海胆状 MnCo2O4 纳米球有望成为优异的高性能储能电极材料,这为高容量纳米电极材料的合成提供了一种新策略。
