Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

With the increasing demand of clean and renewable power technologies, supercapacitors have received extensive interest in the research and several practical applications have been realized in relation to their remarkable power density, rapid charge/discharge capability, and excellent long-term-cycling performance; therefore, they are regarded as one of the most promising electrochemical energy-storage devices. Electrode material, as an example, plays a key role in the final electrochemical performance. In comparison to bulk electrode material, nanoscale material (nanomaterial) exhibits a larger specific surface area with abundant active sites, which is beneficial for electrolyte penetration, electron transfer, and redox reactions too; therefore, an improved electrochemical performance may be expected. At present, a large quantity of nanomaterials have been used for the production of supercapacitors, such as carbon-based materials (e.g., graphene, carbon nanotubes, and carbon cloth), conductive polymers, and transition metal oxides (phosphide and hydroxides), as well as some emerging materials, including Mxene, metal–organic frameworks, and metal dichalcogenides. Therefore, all these electrode materials can be utilized in the construction of supercapacitor devices.

The current Special Issue focuses on the latest advances in nanomaterial-based supercapacitors with an enhanced performance. This includes, but is not limited to, the exploitation of new electrode materials, structure and morphology designs, doping, and composite formation. The Special Issue aims to promote the performance of electrode materials and expand the applications of supercapicitors in the field.

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), a typical layered material, has important applications in various fields, such as optoelectronics, catalysis, electronic devices, sensors, and supercapacitors. Extensive research has been carried out on few-layered MoS2 in the field of electrochemistry due to its large specific surface area, abundant active sites and short electron transport path. However, the preparation of few-layered MoS2 is a significant challenge. This work presents a simple one-pot hydrothermal method for synthesizing few-layered MoS2. Furthermore, it investigates the exfoliation effect of different amounts of sodium borohydride (NaBH4) as a stripping agent on the layer number of MoS2. Na+ ions, as alkali metal ions, can intercalate between layers to achieve the purpose of exfoliating MoS2. Additionally, NaBH4 exhibits reducibility, which can effectively promote the formation of the metallic phase of MoS2. Few-layered MoS2, as an electrode for supercapacitor, possesses a wide potential window of 0.9 V, and a high specific capacitance of 150 F g−1 at 1 A g−1. This work provides a facile method to prepare few-layered two-dimensional materials for high electrochemical performance. Full article

Ti3C2Tx MXene, as a common two-dimensional material, has a wide range of applications in electrochemical energy storage. However, the surface forces of few-layer or monolayer Ti3C2Tx MXene lead to easy agglomeration, which hinders the demonstration of its performance due to the characteristics of layered materials. Herein, we report a facile method for preparing monolayer Ti3C2Tx MXene on nickel foam to achieve a self-supporting structure for supercapacitor electrodes under high electrostatic fields. Moreover, the specific capacitance varies with the deposition of different-concentration monolayer Ti3C2Tx MXene on nickel foam. As a result, Ti3C2Tx/NF has a high specific capacitance of 319 mF cm−2 at 2 mA cm−2 and an excellent long-term cycling stability of 94.4% after 7000 cycles. It was observed that the areal specific capacitance increases, whereas the mass specific capacitance decreases with the increasing loading mass. Attributable to the effect of the high electrostatic field, the self-supporting structure of the Ti3C2Tx/NF becomes denser as the concentration of the monolayer Ti3C2Tx MXene ink increases, ultimately affecting its electrochemical performance. This work provides a simple way to overcome the agglomeration problem of few-layer or monolayer MXene, then form a self-supporting electrode exhibiting excellent electrochemical performance.

Transparent ZnMn2O4 thin films on indium tin oxide (ITO) were prepared through spray pyrolysis and implemented as electrodes in symmetric supercapacitors (SSCs). A specific capacitance value of 752 F g−1 at 0.5 A g−1 and a 70% retention over 3000 galvanostatic charge–discharge (GCD) cycles were reached with a 1.0 M Na2SO4 electrolyte in a three-electrode electrochemical cell. Analysis of the cycled electrodes with 1.0 M Na2SO4 revealed a local loss of electrode material; this loss increases when electrodes are used in SCCs. To avoid this drawback, solid polyvinylpyrrolidone-LiClO4 (PVP-LiClO4) and quasi-solid polyvinylpyrrolidone-ionic liquid (PVP-ionic liquid) electrolytes were tested in SSCs as substitutes for aqueous Na2SO4. An improvement in capacitance retention without a loss of electrode material was observed for the PVP-ionic liquid and PVP-LiClO4 electrolytes. With these non-aqueous electrolytes, the tetragonal structure of the ZnMn2O4 spinel was maintained throughout the cyclic voltammetry (CV) cycles, although changes occurred in the stoichiometry from ZnMn2O4 to Mn-rich Zn1−xMn3−xO4. In the case of the electrolyte 1.0 M Na2SO4, the loss of Zn2+ led to the formation of MnO2 via Zn1-xM3-xO4. The location of the three SCCs in the Ragone plot shows supercapacitor behavior. The electrochemical results prove that the pseudocapacitance is the major contributor to the electrode capacitance, and the SCCs can therefore be considered as pseudocapacitors. Full article

The rational fabrication of composite structures made of mixed components has shown great potential for boosting the energy density of supercapacitors. Herein, an elaborate hierarchical MOF-derived NiCo2S4@Mo-doped Co-LDH arrays hybrid electrode was fabricated through a step-wise method. By leveraging the synergistic effects of a uniform array of NiCo2S4 nanowires as the core and an MOF-derived porous shell, the NiCo2S4@Mo-doped Co-LDH hybrid electrode demonstrates an exceptional specific capacitance of 3049.3 F g−1 at 1 A g−1. Even at a higher current density of 20 A g−1, the capacitance remains high at 2458.8 F g−1. Moreover, the electrode exhibits remarkable cycling stability, with 91% of the initial capacitance maintained after 10,000 cycles at 10 A g−1. Additionally, the as-fabricated asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) based on the NiCo2S4@Mo-doped Co-LDH electrode achieves an impressive energy density of 97.5 Wh kg−1 at a power density of 835.6 W kg−1. These findings provide a promising approach for the development of hybrid-structured electrodes, enabling the realization of high-energy-density asymmetric supercapacitors. Full article

Printed energy storage components attracted attention for being incorporated into bendable electronics. In this research, a homogeneous and stable ink based on vanadium dioxide (VO2) is hydrothermally synthesized with a non-toxic solvent. The structural and morphological properties of the synthesized material are determined to be well-crystalline monoclinic-phase nanoparticles. The charge storage mechanisms and evaluations are specified for VO2 electrodes, gold (Au) electrodes, and VO2/Au electrodes using cyclic voltammetry, galvanostatic charge–discharge, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The VO2 electrode shows an electrical double layer and a redox reaction in the positive and negative voltage ranges with a slightly higher areal capacitance of 9 mF cm−2. The VO2/Au electrode exhibits an areal capacitance of 16 mF cm−2, which is double that of the VO2 electrode. Due to the excellent electrical conductivity of gold, the areal capacitance 18 mF cm−2 of the Au electrode is the highest among them. Based on that, Au positive electrodes and VO2 negative electrodes are used to build an asymmetric supercapacitor. The device delivers an areal energy density of 0.45 μWh cm−2 at an areal power density of 70 μW cm−2 at 1.4 V in the aqueous electrolyte of potassium hydroxide. We provide a promising electrode candidate for cost-effective, lightweight, environmentally friendly printed supercapacitors. Full article

The composites of NiCo2O4 with unique structures were substantially investigated as promising electrodes. In this study, the unique structured nanosheets anchored on nickel foam (Ni foam) were prepared under the hydrothermal technique of NiCo2O4 and subsequent preparation of Co(OH)2. The Co(OH)2@NiCo2O4 nanosheet composite has demonstrated higher specific capacitances owing to its excellent specific surface region, enhanced rate properties, and outstanding electrical conductivities. Moreover, the electrochemical properties were analyzed in a three-electrode configuration to study the sample material. The as-designed Co(OH)2@NiCo2O4 nanosheet achieves higher specific capacitances of 1308 F·g−1 at 0.5 A·g−1 and notable long cycles with 92.83% capacity retention over 6000 cycles. The Co(OH)2@NiCo2O4 nanosheet electrode exhibits a long life span and high capacitances compared with the NiCo2O4 and Co(OH)2 electrodes, respectively. These outstanding electrochemical properties are mainly because of their porous construction and the synergistic effects between NiCo2O4 and Co(OH)2. Such unique Co(OH)2@NiCo2O4 nanosheets not only display promising applications in renewable storage but also reiterate to scientists of the unlimited potential of high-performance materials.

MOF-derived carbon (MDC) and metal oxide (MDMO) are superior materials for supercapacitor electrodes due to their high specific capacitances, which can be attributed to their high porosity, specific surface area (SSA), and pore volume. To improve the electrochemical performance, the environmentally friendly and industrially producible MIL-100 (Fe) was prepared using three different Fe sources through hydrothermal synthesis. MDC-A with micro- and mesopores and MDC-B with micropores were synthesized through carbonization and an HCl washing process, and MDMO (α-Fe2O3) was obtained by a simple sintering in air. The electrochemical properties in a three-electrode system using a 6 M KOH electrolyte were investigated. These novel MDC and MDMO were applied to an asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) system to overcome the disadvantages of traditional supercapacitors, enhancing energy density, power density, and cyclic performance. High SSA materials (MDC-A nitrate and MDMO iron) were selected for negative and positive electrode material to fabricate ASC with KOH/PVP gel electrolyte. As-fabricated ASC resulted in high specific capacitance 127.4 Fg−1 at 0.1 Ag−1 and 48.0 Fg−1 at 3 Ag−1, respectively, and delivered superior energy density (25.5 Wh/kg) at a power density 60 W/kg. The charging/discharging cycling test was also conducted, indicating 90.1% stability after 5000 cycles. These results indicate that ASC with MDC and MDMO derived from MIL-100 (Fe) has promising potential in high-performance energy storage devices. Full article

MgCo2O4 nanomaterial is thought to be a promising candidate for renewable energy storage and conversions. Nevertheless, the poor stability performances and small specific areas of transition-metal oxides remain a challenge for supercapacitor (SC) device applications. In this study, sheet-like Ni(OH)2@MgCo2O4 composites were hierarchically developed on nickel foam (NF) using the facile hydrothermal process with calcination technology, under carbonization reactions. The combination of the carbon–amorphous layer and porous Ni(OH)2 nanoparticles was anticipated to enhance the stability performances and energy kinetics. The Ni(OH)2@MgCo2O4 nanosheet composite achieved a superior specific capacitance of 1287 F g−1 at a current value of 1 A g−1, which is higher than that of pure Ni(OH)2 nanoparticles and MgCo2O4 nanoflake samples. At a current density of 5 A g−1, the Ni(OH)2@MgCo2O4 nanosheet composite delivered an outstanding cycling stability of 85.6%, which it retained over 3500 long cycles with an excellent rate of capacity of 74.5% at 20 A g−1. These outcomes indicate that such a Ni(OH)2@MgCo2O4 nanosheet composite is a good contender as a novel battery-type electrode material for high-performance SCs. Full article

Cobalt oxide (CoOx) nanowires have been broadly explored as advanced pseudocapacitive materials owing to their impressive theoretical gravimetric capacity. However, the traditional method of compositing with conductive nanoparticles to improve their poor conductivity will unpredictably lead to a decrease in actual capacity. The amelioration of the aspect ratio of the CoOx nanowires may affect the pathway of electron conduction and ion diffusion, thereby improving the electrochemical performances. Here, CoOx nanowires with various aspect ratios were synthesized by controlling hydrothermal temperature, and the CoOx electrodes achieve a high gravimetric specific capacity (1424.8 C g−1) and rate performance (38% retention at 100 A g−1 compared to 1 A g−1). Hybrid supercapacitors (HSCs) based on activated carbon anode reach an exceptional specific energy of 61.8 Wh kg−1 and excellent cyclic performance (92.72% retention, 5000 cycles at 5 A g−1). The CoOx nanowires exhibit great promise as a favorable cathode material in the field of high-performance supercapacitors (SCs). Full article

It is urgent to improve the electrochemical performance of anode for supercapacitors. Herein, we successfully prepare Fe2O3/porous carbon composite materials (FPC) through hydrothermal strategies by using oily sludge waste. The hierarchical porous carbon (HPC) substrate and fine loading of Fe2O3 nanorods are all important for the electrochemical performance. The HPC substrate could not only promote the surface capacitance effect but also improve the utilization efficiency of Fe2O3 to enhance the pseudo-capacitance. The smaller and uniform Fe2O3 loading is also beneficial to optimize the pore structure of the electrode and enlarge the interface for faradaic reactions. The as-prepared FPC shows a high specific capacitance of 465 F g−1 at 0.5 A g−1, good rate capability of 66.5% retention at 20 A g−1, and long cycling stability of 88.4% retention at 5 A g−1 after 4000 cycles. In addition, an asymmetric supercapacitor device (ASC) constructed with FPC as the anode and MnO2/porous carbon composite (MPC) as the cathode shows an excellent power density of 72.3 W h kg−1 at the corresponding power density of 500 W kg−1 with long-term cycling stability. Owing to the outstanding electrochemical characteristics and cycling performance, the associated materials’ design concept from oily sludge waste has large potential in energy storage applications and environmental protection.

Supercapacitors have become a popular form of energy-storage device in the current energy and environmental landscape, and their performance is heavily reliant on the electrode materials used. Carbon-based electrodes are highly desirable due to their low cost and their abundance in various forms, as well as their ability to easily alter conductivity and surface area. Many studies have been conducted to enhance the performance of carbon-based supercapacitors by utilizing various carbon compounds, including pure carbon nanotubes and multistage carbon nanostructures as electrodes. These studies have examined the characteristics and potential applications of numerous pure carbon nanostructures and scrutinized the use of a wide variety of carbon nanomaterials, such as AC, CNTs, GR, CNCs, and others, to improve capacitance. Ultimately, this study provides a roadmap for producing high-quality supercapacitors using carbon-based electrodes. Full article
