Abstract: | Loose-packed nickel hydroxides were successfully synthesized by a facile chemical precipitation method. Structure characterizations
indicate that a nanoflake structure with low crystallinity for the nickel hydroxide samples was obtained. Electrochemical
studies were carried out using cyclic voltammetry, chronopotentiometry technology, and alternating current impedance spectroscopy,
respectively. A maximum specific capacitance of 2,055F/g could be achieved in 2M aqueous KOH with the potential range of 0
to 0.4V (vs. the saturated calomel electrode) in a half-cell setup configuration for the nanoflake Ni(OH)2 electrode, suggesting its potential application in the electrode material for electrochemical capacitors. Furthermore, the
effect of annealing temperatures on the electrochemical capacitance characteristics has also been systemically explored. |
