CuO/ZnO/PANI ternary nanocomposites electrode for high performance supercapacitor
摘要
The development of energy storage device is the main motive of the scientific community’s to overcome the current energy crises. Supercapacitor is best known storage device and in this device electrode play vital role. One potential solution to improve the electrode material’s characteristics. Here, polyaniline-based ternary composites was chosen to fabricate the electrode. A CuO/ZnO/PANI ternary nanohybrid fabricated via using a straightforward hydrothermal method. Various physical techniques were adopted to study the hybrid material. BET examination showed a high specific surface area of hybrid material, while SEM and XRD investigations verified good morphology and phase purity. A three-electrode configuration was used to assess the CuO/ZnO/PANI ternary hybrid material’s electrochemical performance in a basic (KOH) electrolyte. The CuO/ZnO/PANI ternary nanocomposite showed a Csp of 1329 F g−1 based on the GCD data, along with significantly enhanced Ed of 134.01 Wh kg−1 and a Pd of 808.02 W kg−1, respectively. This work shows that PANI greatly boosts the energy storage capability of CuO/ZnO. This material’s with enhanced properties make it suitable for use in a variety of energy storage devices.
