Abstract
Hierarchical nanostructures have harvested noteworthy attention lately owing to their remarkable capabilities in the fields of energy storing and transformation, catalysis, and electrical devices. We established an effort less and template-free synthetic method to create hierarchical hetero nanostructures of Zn2V2O7, taking into account the benefits of hierarchical nanostructures, we investigated the performance of HNs (Hierarchical Nanostructures) as electrochemical supercapacitors. Electrochemical tests were tested in a 6 M KOH solution to assess their capabilities. The Zn2V2O7 electrode's measured specific capacitance was 750F/g at 1 A/g, with outstanding stability and an excellent retention capacity of 85 % later 5000 cycles in three- electrode electrochemical cells. Asymmetric device such as Zn2V2O7//AC provides a specific capacitance of 76.8F/g at 1 A/g with energy and power densities of 27.3 Wh kg-1 and 800 W kg-1 respectively. The device withstands 85 % of its initial capacity after 5000 continuous GCD cycles at 10 A/g. The outstanding performance observed clearly demonstrates the significant potential and practical utility of Zn2V2O7 in the realm of more efficient energy storage applications.
