Transition metal molybdates/carbonates and hybrid nanomaterials have gained significant attention in energy storage applications due to their enhanced redox activity, excellent electronic conductivity, and stable crystallinity. In this study, a multicomponent MnMoO4/MnCO3 hybrid material was synthesized using a one-step hydrothermal method with urea as the reaction fuel. By controlling the urea concentration, the MnMoO4/MnCO3 molecular ratio was effectively controlled, resulting in profound effects on the electrochemical properties of the hybrid electrodes. The MnMoO4/MnCO3 hybrid exhibited excellent specific capacitance, energy density, power density, and capacitance retention, highlighting its potential for high-power devices.
Transition metal molybdates/carbonates and hybrid nanomaterials have attracted great attention in energy storage applications because of their enriched redox activity, good electronic conductivity, and stable crystallinity. We synthesize a multicomponent MnMoO4/MnCO3 hybrid by a one-step hydrothermal method with urea as the reaction fuel. By controlling only the urea concentration in the initial precursor solution, the MnMoO4/MnCO3 molecular ratio is controlled effectively, which is found to have a profound effect on the electrochemical properties of the hybrid electrodes. The electrochemical measurements show that the specific capacitance of MnMoO4/MnCO3 hybrid is 1311 F/g, the energy density of 116.8 Wh/kg, and power density of 383 W/kg at a current density of 1 A/g with 79% capacitance retention over 50 0 0 cycles. The fabricated asymmetric supercapacitor device exhibits good energy storage performance, including the specific capacitance of 97 F/g along with the energy density of 26.5 Wh/kg and the power density of 657 W/kg at a current density of 1 A/g and good reversibility with capacitance retention of 85% after 2000 cycles and 70% over 5000 cycles. The increase in the energy density of 900% with a mere 60% decrement in the energy density indicates its potential superior applications in high-power devices.
