Hydrothermal Method of Binary CoMoO4/CuMoO4 Nanocomposites As an Electrode for High-Performance Supercapacitor Application
摘要
Metal molybdate nanocomposites have recently drawn scientific interest for supercapacitor devices, because of their benefits, including good redox reactions and low synthesis costs. This work successfully produced CoMoO4/CuMoO4 nanocomposites (CCMO NCs) grown on nickel foam using a single-pot hydrothermal approach. Furthermore, X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirms that CCMO NCs are well crystalline structure. The formation of the metal – oxygen functional groups of CCMO NCs was confirmed by FTIR spectroscopy. The chemical states of the aimed CCMO NCs were measured using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed that this material had a rodlike structure. Also, CCMO NCs used as an electrode and employed directly as supercapacitor applications. The CCMO electrode had achieved the specific capacitance (Cs) value of 2500 F g–1 at a current density of 2 A g–1. It also demonstrated cycling stability of 38.46% retention after 10 000 cycles.
