The electrochemical properties of supercapacitors based on LiNi0.8Co0.2O2 / MWNTs composite and LiNi0.8Co0.2O2/acetylene black composite and MWNTs in 1.0 mol·L-1 LiClO4 / EC+DEC [V(EC)∶V(DEC)=1∶1] electrolyte were investigated by means of constant charge/discharge current tests, respectively. The experimental results show that the LiNi0.8Co0.2O2 / MWNTs composite has better performance than that of others, and the maximum specific capacitance of the supercapacitor can reach 271.6 F·g-1, while the energy density is up to 339.5 Wh·kg-1. Furthermore, it is remarkable that the performance of MWNTs is better than that of acetylene black as the conductive additive.展开更多

The precursor was examined by DSC-TG. The gradient composite was characterized by SEM, EDS, XPS, XRD and ICP-AES. The XPS, EDS and ICP-AES results show that content of cobalt in the surface is higher than in the center of the spherical particle of the gradient composite. The first discharge specific capacity of the gradient composite sintered at 700 ℃ is 187.3 mAh·g-1.展开更多
