Fossil fuels depletion and deteriorating environmental conditions have deepened the growing demand for new energy solution. The bimetallic transition metal selenides, which a smaller bandgap and greater electrical conductivity than nanometals, are the subject of recent research on hybrid supercapacitors, composite systems integrating battery-like energy storage capability with capacitive charging. Herein, a new binder NiSe-SnSe composite system for supercapacitors has been developed through facile hydrothermal method, and its structural features, morphological characteristics as well as electrochemical properties are systematically studies in this work. Additionally, a thorough understanding of the electrode physicochemical properties are presented. Practically, a NiSe-SnSe||AC|KOH ASC had excellent specific capacitance (618 F/g at 1 A g−1), mainly owing to fast charge transport in electrochemical action. More importantly, the NiSe-SnSe||AC|KOH ASC electrode exhibits a high specific power of 8400 W kg−1 at a high specific energy of 55.4 Wh kg−1 with remarkable cycling stability by 96.4 % maintenance of initial capacitance after 5500 cycles. Our findings provide a profound understanding and possible use of this newly developed asymmetric supercapacitor in energy storage.
