To address the said problems, carbon fibers were grown in situ on foam nickel by CVD method to prepare a three-dimensional foam nickel/carbon fiber composite collector, and then nickel-cobalt hydroxides were obtained on the composite current collector by a hydrothermal method with the aim of a superior supercapacitor electrode material (CF/Ni–Co). Effects of anions of metal salts (such as acetate, nitrate, sulfate and chloride) on the morphology, structure and electrochemical performance of the obtained electrodes were investigated.

With the development of novel polymerization techniques, different types of nanometer polymer microspheres have been synthesized and more and more attention has been paid to their potential applications. In this study, nanometer polymer microspheres containing biphenyl formaldehyde were synthesized by Schiff base reaction.

We conducted a single factor experiment to investigate the effects of different ratios, dosages, times, and temperatures on adsorption efficiency. We characterized the nanometer-polymer microspheres by XRD, IR, and SEM techniques to examine their size, morphology, and structure. Experimental results showed that the optimal ratio for nanometer-polymer microspheres was 1 : 2, with an optimal dose of 25 mg.
