In this work, the hierarchical porous Ni1.5Co1.5S4/g-C3N4 composite was prepared by growing Ni1.5Co1.5S4 nanoparticles on graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) nanosheets via a hydrothermal route. Due to the self-assembly of larger size g-C3N4 nanosheets as a skeleton, the prepared nanocomposite possesses a unique hierarchical porous structure that can provide short ions diffusion and fast electron transport. As a result, the Ni1.5Co1.5S4/g-C3N4 composite exhibits a high specific capacitance of 1827 F g(-1) at a current density of 1 A g(-1), which is 1.53 times that of pure Ni1.5Co1.5S4 (1191 F g(-1)). In particular, the Ni1.5Co1.5S4/g-C3N4//activated carbon (AC) asymmetric supercapacitor delivers a high energy density of 49.0 Wh kg(-1) at a power density of 799.0 W kg(-1). Moreover, the assembled device shows outstanding cycle stability with 95.5% capacitance retention after 8000 cycles at a high current density of 10 A g(-1). The attractive performance indicates that the easily synthesized and low-cost Ni1.5Co1.5S4/g-C3N4 composite would be a promising electrode material for supercapacitor application.
