The electrochemical capacitance of this electrode material was studied. When the mass fraction of CNTs (carbon nanotubes) in NiO/CNT composites increases, the electrical resistivity of nanocomposites decreases and becomes similar to that of pure CNTs when it reaches 30%. The specific surface area of composites increases with increasing CNT mass fraction and the specific capacitance reaches 160 F/g under 10 mA/g discharge current density at CNT mass fraction of 10%.展开更多

Nickel oxide film electrodes perform pseudocapacitance in aqueous KOH and NaOH but perform double layer capacitance in LiCIO4/PC (propylence carbonate). The effect of increasing the specific capacitance was observed when Ni oxide film electrodes are doped with Co. A specific capacitance of around 70 F/g was achieved when using Ni oxide films doped with Co as electrodes and 1 mol/L aqueous KOH or NaOH as an electrolyte.展开更多
