摘要

In this work, manganese ferrite microfibers (MnFe2O4-mf) prepared by electrospinning and reduced graphene oxide sheets (RGOS) made by traditional hydrothermal methods were incorporated to form a RGOS@MnFe2O4-mf composite due to the noncovalent interaction. This RGOS@MnFe2O4-mf composite was further applied as a supercapacitor. A variety of characterization techniques, including X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, FTIR spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, were used to examine the RGOS@MnFe2O4-mf composite. In addition, galvanostatic charge–discharge (GCD) measurements and cyclic voltammetry (CV) data were collected in electrochemical experiments. The produced RGOS@MnFe2O4-mf composite showed a good surface area, a high energy storage capacity with noticeable endurance, and remarkable electrocatalysis capabilities. Based on the outcomes, RGOS@MnFe2O4-mf-coated nickel foam (NF) electrodes demonstrated relatively high supercapacitive performance of 1797 Fg−1 at 1 Ag−1. Following charge and discharge in a 2.0 M KOH aqueous electrolyte solution, the RGOS@MnFe2O4-mf/NF electrodes exhibited remarkable cyclic stability of around 99% at 5 Ag−1. We conclude that the synthesized RGOS@MnFe2O4-mf/NF electrode is useful for energy storage applications based on electrochemical capacitive measurements.
