Chem Asian J 2024; 19:e202400202. [PMID: 38687089 DOI: 10.1002/asia.202400202] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2024] [Revised: 04/21/2024] [Accepted: 04/29/2024] [Indexed: 05/02/2024]
Abstract
Herein, the performance of asymmetric supercapacitors (ASC) fabricated using ZnCo2O4 (ZCO) nano-hexagons and orange peel-derived activated carbon (OPAC) as electrodes was studied. ZCO was prepared by a double hydroxide method and OPAC was prepared from orange peel followed by KOH activation. For ZCO, the calcination temperature was determined using TGA analysis. The XRD showed the presence of a cubic spinel structure. The chemical structure was analyzed using XPS, FTIR, and Raman spectroscopy respectively. For OPAC, the presence of an amorphous nature was inferred; FTIR and Raman studies indicate the presence of functional groups and defect structure in the material. The presence of ZCO nano-hexagons was observed from SEM and TEM respectively. For OPAC, an interconnected pore structure was observed from the SEM image. The specific capacitance for ZCO and OPAC was found to be 194 F.g-1 and 159 F.g-1 at a current density of 0.25 A.g-1. Further, an ASC was fabricated using ZCO as a positive and OPAC as a negative electrode in 2M KOH-soaked separator. A cell voltage of 1.2 V was achieved and the specific capacitance was calculated to be 64 F.g-1 at 0.25 A.g-1. Further, the cyclic stability and the changes at the electrode/electrolyte interface were studied.

Abstract
Manganese oxide is a potential agent in the field of energy storage owing to its changeable redox characteristics, high theoretical specific capacitance and valence shells for charge transfer. On the other hand, due to huge surface area, affordability, customisable composition, layered structure and high theoretical specific capacitance, layered double hydroxides, or LDHs, have drawn a lot of interest. This study employs a three-electrode setup to investigate the supercapacitive performance of λ-manganese dioxide/Cu-Al LDH composite at different compositional ratios. To enhance the adhesive and conductivity capabilities, 10% of CNT additive and PVDF binder are added for the composites. Out of all the composites, the one with the greatest weight percentage of λ-manganese dioxide shows the best electrode performance with a superior specific capacitance of 164 F/g at a scan rate of 10 mV/s. Additionally, using a symmetrical two-electrode setup, the best-performing electrode is examined. The result shows an exceptional potential window of 2.7 V in a basic electrolyte, a power density of 4.04 kW/kg at 3 A/g, an energy density of 20.32 Wh/kg at 1 A/g, and a specific capacitance of 37 F/g.

Fabrication of CNT-N@Manganese Oxide Hybrid Nanomaterials through a Versatile One-Pot Eco-Friendly Route toward Engineered Textile Supercapacitors.

Abstract
The expansion of the Internet of Things market and the proliferation of wearable technologies have generated a significant demand for textile-based energy storage systems. This work reports the engineered design of hybrid electrode nanomaterials of N-doped carbon nanotubes (CNT-N) functionalized with two types of manganese oxides (MOs)-birnessite (MnO2) and hausmannite (Mn3O4)-and their application in solid-state textile-based hybrid supercapacitors (SCs). A versatile citric acid-mediated eco-friendly one-pot aqueous precipitation process is proposed for the fabrication of the hybrids. Remarkably, different types of MOs were obtained by simply changing the reaction temperature from room temperature to 100 °C, without any post-thermal treatment. Asymmetric textile SCs were developed using cotton fabrics coated with CNT-N and the hybrids as textile electrodes, and poly(vinyl) alcohol/orthophosphoric acid as the solid-gel electrolyte. The asymmetric devices presented enhanced energy storage performance relative to the symmetric device based on CNT-N and excellent cycling stability (>96%) after 8000 charge/discharge cycles owing to synergistic effects between CNT-N and the MOs, which endowed nonfaradaic and pseudocapacitive features to the SCs. The asymmetric SC based on CNT-N@MnO2 featured 47% higher energy density and comparable power density to the symmetric CNT-N-based device (8.70 W h cm-2 at 309.01 μW cm-2 vs. 5.93 W h cm-2 at 346.58 μW cm-2). The engineered hybrid CNT-N@MO nanomaterials and the eco-friendly citric acid-assisted one-pot precipitation route open promising prospects not only for energy storage, but also for (photo)(electro)catalysis, wastewater treatment, and (bio)sensing.

Abstract
For an uninterrupted self-powered network, the requirement of miniaturized energy storage device is of utmost importance. This study explores the potential utilization of phosphorus-doped nickel oxide (P-NiO) to design highly efficient durable micro-supercapacitors. The introduction of P as a dopant serves to enhance the electrical conductivity of bare NiO, leading to 11-fold augmentation in volumetric capacitance to 841.92 Fcm-3 followed by significant enhancement of energy and power density from 6.71 to 42.096 mWhcm-3 and 0.47 to 1.046 Wcm-3, respectively. Theoretical calculations used to determine the adsorption energy of OH- ions, revealing higher in case of bare NiO (1.52 eV) as compared to phosphorus-doped NiO (0.64 eV) leading to high electrochemical energy storage performance. The as-designed micro-supercapacitor (MSC) device demonstrates a facile integration with the photovoltaic system for renewable energy storage and smooth transfer to external loads for enlightening the blue LED for ≈1 min. The choice of P-NiO/Ni not only contributes to cost reduction but also ensures minimal lattice mismatch at the interface facilitating high durability up to 15 K cycles along with capacitive retention of ≈100% and coulombic efficiency of 93%. Thus, the heterostructure unveils the possibilities of exploring miniaturized energy storage devices for portable electronics.

Abstract
The large number of active sites in the layered structure of δ-MnO2 with considerable interlayer spacing makes it an excellent candidate for ion storage. Unfortunately, the δ-MnO2-based electrode has not yet attained the exceptional storage potential that it should demonstrate because of disappointing structural deterioration during periodic charging and discharging. Here, we represent that stable Na ion storage in δ-MnO2 may be triggered by the preintercalation of K ions and water molecules. Furthermore, the sluggish reaction kinetics and poor electrical conductivity of preintercalated δ-MnO2 layers are overcome by the incorporation of h-WO3 in the preintercalated δ-MnO2 to form novel composite electrodes. The composites contain mixed valence metals, which provide a great number of active sites along with improved redox activity, while maintaining a fast ion transfer efficiency to enhance the pseudocapacitance performance. Based on our research, the composite prepared from preintercalated δ-MnO2 with 5 wt % h-WO3 provides a specific capacitance of up to 363.8 F g-1 at a current density of 1.5 A g-1 and an improved energy density (32.3 W h kg-1) along with an ∼14% increase in capacity upon cycling up to 5000 cycles. Hence, the interaction between the preintercalated δ-MnO2 and h-WO3 nanorods results in satisfactory energy storage performance due to the defect-rich structure, high conductivity, superior stability, and lower charge transfer resistance. This research has the potential to pave the way for a new class of hybrid supercapacitors that could fill the energy gap between chemical batteries and ideal capacitors.

Abstract
MnOx-based nanomaterials are promising large-scale electrochemical energy storage devices due to their high specific capacity, low toxicity, and low cost. However, their slow diffusion kinetics is still challenging, restricting practical applications. Here, a one-pot and straightforward method was reported to produce Zn-doped MnOx nanowires with abundant defects and tunable small cross-sections, exhibiting an outstanding specific capacitance. More specifically, based on a facile hydrothermal strategy, zinc sites could be uniformly dispersed in the α-MnOx nanowires structure as a function of composition (0.3, 2.1, 4.3, and 7.6 wt.% Zn). Such a process avoided the formation of different crystalline phases during the synthesis. The reproducible method afforded uniform nanowires, in which the size of cross-sections decreased with the increase of Zn composition. Surprisingly, we found a volcano-type relationship between the storage performance and the Zn loading. In this case, we demonstrated that the highest performance material could be achieved by incorporating 2.1 wt.% Zn, exhibiting a remarkable specific capacitance of 1082.2 F.g-1 at a charge/discharge current density of 1.0 A g-1 in a 2.0 mol L-1 KOH electrolyte. The optimized material also afforded improved results for hybrid supercapacitors. Thus, the results presented herein shed new insights into preparing defective and controlled nanomaterials by a simple one-step method for energy storage applications.
