Abstract
In this work, NiCo2S4 nanoparticles for supercapacitors are successfully synthesized with a top-down strategy, using a novel dealloying method with an ion exchange reaction. The surface morphology and x-ray diffraction investigations demonstrated that NiCo2S4 nanoparticles are interconnected by ligaments of the synthesized sample. The dealloyed NiCo2S4 shows an enhanced electrochemical performance of about 1132.5 F g−1 at 0.5 A g−1; kinetic analysis implies a surface-controlled contribution from NiCo2S4 (53.86% capacitive contributions). Notably, the NiCo2S4//AC (active carbon) device displays a comparatively high energy density (22.83 Wh kg−1), maximum power density (1327.1 W kg−1) and superior cycling performance (capacitance retention of 108% after 30 000 cycles).
