Magnesium cobalt oxide, MgCo2O4 was synthesized by oxalate decomposition method and electrospinning technique. The electrochemical performances, structures, phase formation and morphology of MgCo2O4 synthesized by both the methods are compared. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) studies show spherical and fiber type morphology, respectively for the oxalate decomposition and electrospinning method. The electrospun nanofibers of MgCo2O4 calcined at 650 degrees C, showed a very good reversible capacity of 795 mAhg(-1) after 50 cycles when compared to bulk material capacity of 227 mAh g(-1) at current rate of 60 mAg(-1). MgCo2O4 nanofiber showed a reversible capacity of 411 mAh g(-1) (at cycle) at current density of 240 mAg(-1). Improved performance was due to improved conductivity of MgO, which may act as buffer layer leading to improved cycling stability. The cyclic voltammetry studies at scan rate of 0.058 mV/s show main cathodic at around 1.0V and anodic peaks at 2.1 V vs. Li. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
