Sustainable LaNiO3/biocarbon nanocomposite derived from sugarcane bagasse for high-performance supercapacitor application
摘要
Researchers are collaborating on nanomaterials that can perform multiple functions since water purification as well as the demand for energy storage are serious concerns for societies. Due to their many physical, surface properties and conductive capabilities as well as outstanding chemical durability, metal oxide has got a lot of interest for potential applications in energy storage. In this study, the researchers present a simple hydrothermal process for the production of LaNiO3/sugarcane bagasse. The morphological, structural and interfacial area of the material was determined using different physical properties such as Fourier transformation infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). LaNiO3/SB showed specific capacitance (Cs) of 1958.67 F g−1 with specific power (SP) of 259 W kg−1 and specific energy (SE) (73 Wh kg−1) at 1 A g−1. The electrode material is efficient and perfect for storing energy and protecting the environment because of its remarkable electrochemical properties.
