After chemical or thermal reduction, the composite of reduced GO and nickel foam （rGO/NF） was obtained. The electrochemical capacitance performance of rGO/NF was investigated using cyclic voltammetry and gal- vanostatic charge/discharge measurements. The chemically reduced rGO/NF composite （C-rGO/NF） exhibited high specific capacitance of 379 F/g at 1.0 A/g and 266.5 F/g at 10 A/g. We also prepared thermally reduced graphene oxide at 473 K in or- der to illuminate the difference in effect between the chemical and low-temperature thermal reduction methods on electro- chemical properties. The cycling performance of thermally reduced rGO/NF composite （T-rGO/NF） and C-rGO/NF had ~91% and ~95% capacitance retention after 2000 cycles in a 6 mol/L KOH electrolyte, respectively. Electrochemical experiments in- dicated that the obtained rGO/NF has very good capacitive performance and could be used as a potential application of elec- trochemical capacitors. Our work revealed high electrochemical capacitor performance of rGO/NF composite and provided a facile method of rGO/NF preparation.展开更多
