Abstract

In this study, urchin and tremella-like NiCo2O4 was synthesised by adopting a facile hydrothermal method using green solvents (water and ethanol). Using different ratios and pure forms of green solvents has a direct impact on materials synthesised. Ethanol based NiCo2O4 (NCO-E) illustrated tremella like microspheres with a specific surface area of 260.8 m2 g−1. The electrochemical performance confirmed that the NCO-E has a maximum specific capacitance of 2271 F g−1 at a current density of 1 A g−1. Further, as-fabricated NCO-E//AC-ASC device delivers a Cs value of 96.6 F g−1 at 1 A g−1 and a cyclic stability of 99.68 % over 5000 cycles. The device exhibited a high energy density of 30.19 Wh kg−1 at a power density of 749.48 W kg−1 and a high power density of 7542.61 W kg−1 at energy density 18.43 Wh kg−1 owing to the working electrode's effective electrochemical usage and excellent ion transfer mechanism.
