Co-MoS2 nanoflower coated carbon fabric as a flexible electrode for supercapacitor

Cobalt doped MoS2 (Co-MoS2) nanoflowers have been successfully synthesized via a simple one-step hydrothermal method for supercapacitor applications. To identify the crystalline nature and morphology, the as-prepared material is characterized by XRD, SEM, and TEM measurements. The material exhibits a specific capacitance value of 86 F g(-1) at a current density of 1 Ag-1 in symmetric two-electrode configu-ration with excellent cyclic stability of 98.5% even after 10,000 charge-discharge cycles. The results sug-gest the suitability of Co-MoS2 as an efficient electrode material for supercapacitors. (c) 2021 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
