The invention discloses a pure-phase
spinel Co3O4 multistage
nanosheet, a soft template preparation method thereof and application thereof in a
supercapacitor, which belong to the field of nano
energy storage structure material preparation technology and electrochemical application.
Sodium dodecyl sulfate which is common in life is adopted as a soft template, a
nanoflower precursor with uniform morphology is obtained through
oil bath heating, Co3O4 with a multistage
nanosheet structure is obtained after proper annealing, Co3O4 is mixed with PTFE and then loaded on foamed
nickel, and the
supercapacitor anode with good performance can be obtained. The specific
capacitance value of the
supercapacitor obtained by using the
anode is 342.8 C.g<-1> (the
current density is 1A.g<-1>), the rate capability is 58.8% (the
current density is increased by 16 times), the production cost is reduced, and the
anode has a good industrial application prospect. Besides, when the pure-phase
spinel Co3O4 multistage
nanosheet is used for manufacturing an
electrode material of the supercapacitor, carbon
powder does not need to be added, so that the manufacturing cost is reduced, the contribution of carbon to the
capacitor is eliminated, and the performance result of the supercapacitor is more reliable.
