RuO2 has been extensively investigated as a pseudocapacitive material. However, developing a facile and effective method to improve the pseudocapacitive performance of RuO2 is still desired. In this work, we report the synthesis of ultra-small RuO2 nanoparticles supported on carbon cloth (us-RuO2/CC) via a facile two-step method. As a binder-free electrode, us-RuO2/CC exhibits a high capacitance of 1067.4 F g−1 at a current density of 1 A g−1. Moreover, us-RuO2/CC also shows good rate performance (87.8% capacitance retention at 20 A g−1) and cycle stability (99.6% capacitance retention after 5000 cycles).
Graphical abstract
Ultra-small RuO2 nanoparticles on carbon cloth (us-RuO2/CC) were synthesized via annealing and acid etching treatment of a ZnRu precursor, which was prepared by a dip-coating process. Introducing Zn significantly reduces the particle size of RuO2, leading to a high specific capacitance of 1067.4 F g−1.

碳布负载超小RuO2纳米粒子作为高性能赝电容电极
RuO 2作为赝电容材料已被广泛研究。然而,仍然需要开发一种简便有效的方法来提高RuO 2的赝电容性能。在这项工作中,我们报告了通过简单的两步法合成了碳布负载的超小 RuO 2纳米颗粒(us-RuO 2 /CC)。作为无粘合剂电极,us-RuO 2 /CC 在1 A g -1的电流密度下表现出1067.4 F g -1的高电容。此外,us-RuO 2 /CC 还表现出良好的倍率性能(20 A g -1时的电容保持率为 87.8% )和循环稳定性(5000 次循环后的电容保持率为 99.6%)。
