Abstract

The phase engineering of Bi(OH)SO4·H2O nanosheets is proposed as a simple, adaptable, and cost-effective solution for the combustion of Bi2O3 using H2SO4. This study revealed that the formation of Bi(OH)SO4·H2O with a nanosheet-like morphology. The synthesized nanosheets were employed as electrode materials for electrochemical storage devices. The estimated capacity of the Bi(OH)SO4·H2O electrode is 327.69 mAh g–1 at 1 A g–1. Solid-state coin-cell-type symmetric supercapacitor devices (CSSDs) were developed. The fabricated CSSDs exhibit a high specific capacity (33 mAh g–1 at 1.1 A g–1), energy density (62.23 Wh kg–1), and power density (2074.11 W kg–1) with a significant retained energy density of up to 32.98 Wh kg–1 at 10794.51 W kg–1. Furthermore, they exhibited cycling stability at 5.5 A g–1, maintaining 76.65% of its initial capacity after 10,000 cycles. In addition, to investigate the device performance in real time, two CSSDs were connected in series to power a red LED. The obtained results provide insights into bismuth-based electrodes for energy storage applications.
