Arrays of NiCo S nanotubes on nickel foam were prepared by means of a two-step method, and were directly applied as a binder-free supercapacitor electrode. Such a binder-free method enables intimate contact between the current collector and the active materials, and can effectively improve ion and charge transportation. As a result, the electrochemical performances of supercapacitors can be improved. The as-prepared NiCo S nanotubes/Ni foam electrode shows a high specific capacitance (738 F g at 4 A g ), excellent rate capability (78 % capacitance retention at 32 A g ), and good cycling stability (retention capacity of 93.4 % after 4000 cycles), which suggests its promising application for electrochemical capacitors.
通过两步法制备了泡沫镍上的NiCo S纳米管阵列,并将其直接用作无粘结剂超级电容器电极。这种无粘结剂方法能够使集流体与活性材料紧密接触,并能有效改善离子和电荷传输。结果,超级电容器的电化学性能得以提高。所制备的NiCo S纳米管/泡沫镍电极表现出高比电容(在4 A g时为738 F g)、优异的倍率性能(在32 A g时电容保持率为78%)和良好的循环稳定性(4000次循环后容量保持率为93.4%),这表明其在电化学电容器方面具有广阔的应用前景。
