摘要

A new composite based on V2CTx with a core–shell structure (Co-NCNT/VN/V2CTx) is prepared by a simple one-pot method. Dicyandiamide (DCD) is introduced as the dual-source precursor for both nitrogen and carbon, while Co(NO3)2 is added to catalyze the growth of Nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes (N-CNTs) shell layer on the surface of V2CTx. After pyrolysis in a nitrogen atmosphere, the composite Co-NCNT/VN/V2CTx with a core–shell structure was obtained. The N-CNTs exhibit uniform growth morphology on the V2CTx layer and form a three-dimensional network configuration, which significantly enhances both the specific surface area (305.2 m2/g) and electrical conductivity of the material. The composite exhibits a specific capacitance of 862 F g−1 when measured in 3 M KOH electrolyte. The voltage window ranges from -0.8 V to + 0.2 V, representing a 0.4 V expansion compared to that of pristine V2CTx. The electrode demonstrates exceptional cycling stability, with 95.6% of its initial capacity preserved after 10,000 cycles. An asymmetric supercapacitors is fabricated utilizing the composite material as the negative electrode, and the composite with Co–Ni layered double hydroxide (CoNi-LDH@Co-NCNT/VN/V2CTx) as the positive electrode. The electrochemical performance of the device demonstrates a working potential range spanning from 0 to 1.6 V, achieving a specific capacitance of 282.4 F g⁻1 under standard measurement conditions. Notably, the system delivers an impressive energy density of 30.9 Wh kg−1 while maintaining a power density of 800 W kg−1.
