A high-performance Zn battery based on self-assembled nanostructured NiCo2O4 electrode

This work shown a Zn battery based on NiCo₂O₄ as the positive material in this work. Nanostructured NiCo₂O₄ in-situ grown on the nickel foam substrate with different morphologies (nanosheet, nanowire, and nanoplate) is synthesized using hydrothermal methods, followed by calcination processes, which exhibits hierarchical porous structure with a high specific surface area and proper pore volume, and high capacity and energy density when assembled into a battery.
