Abstract:Supercapacitor performance is reported for manganese silicate hybridized carbon materials (MnSi-C) that is derived from natural bamboo leaves. The in-situ generated manganese silicate is in good distribution by a simple hydrothermal treatment without the addition of another controlling agent. We also study the performance of MnSi-C as a single electrode and a cathode for fabrication of asymmetric supercapacitor device with a Ni(OH)(2) anode. Remarkably, the single electrode MnSi-C-3 delivered a capacity of 162.2 F g(-1) at a current density of 0.5 A g(-1). The cyclic performance of single electrode MnSi-C-3 maintains high capacitance retention of 85% after 10,000 cycles of charge-discharge. By assembled MnSi-C-3 with Ni(OH)(2), the asymmetric supercapacitor device shows a capacity of 438.5 mF cm(-2) at a scan rate of 4 mA cm(-2). The device exhibits an optimal electrochemical performance with an energy density of 3 mWh cm(-3) (24.6 Wh kg(-1)) and power density of 130.4 mW cm(-3) (604.8 W kg(-1)). A reasonable mechanism of in-situ generated manganese silicate on the surface of carbon is proposed based on the experimental data and existed theories. This MnSi-C nanocomposite proves to be a promising electrode material for high energy supercapacitor. (C) 2018 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
