RESUMO
Transition metal phosphide/sulfide (TMP/TMS) heterostructures are attractive supercapacitor electrode materials due to their rapid redox reaction kinetics. However, the limited active sites and weak interfacial interactions result in undesirable electrochemical performance. Herein, based on constructing the NiCo-LDH template on Ni-MOF-derived Ni2P/NC, Ni2P/NC@CoNi2S4 with a porous heterostructure is fabricated by sulfurizing the intermediate and is used for supercapacitors. The exposed Ni sites in the phosphating-obtained Ni2P/NC coordinate with OH- to in situ form an intimate-connected Ni2P/NC@NiCo-LDH, and the CoNi2S4 nanosheets retaining the original cross-linked structure of NiCo-LDH integrate the porous carbon skeleton of Ni2P/NC to yield a hierarchical pore structure with rich electroactive sites. The conducting carbon backbone and the intense electronic interactions at the interface accelerate electron transfer, and the hierarchical pores offer sufficient ion diffusion paths to accelerate redox reactions. These confer Ni2P/NC@CoNi2S4 with a high specific capacitance of 2499 F·g-1 at 1 A·g-1. The NiCo-LDH template producing a tight interfacial connection, significantly enhances the stability of the heterostructure, leading to a 91.89% capacitance retention after 10,000 cycles. Moreover, the fabricated Ni2P/NC@CoNi2S4//NC asymmetric supercapacitor exhibits an excellent energy density of 73.68 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 700 W kg-1, superior to most reported composites of TMPs or TMSs.
RESUMO
As one of the main components of solid propellant, ammonium perchlorate (AP) shows slow sluggish decomposition kinetics with unconcentrated heat release. To achieve efficient catalytical decomposition, it is a significant challenge to design reasonable catalyst structure and explore the interaction between catalyst and AP. Herein, a series of porous carbon supported spinel-typed homogeneous heterometallic composites CuxCo3-xO4/C via pyrolysis of MOF-74-Co doped Cu. On basis of precise electronic-structure-tuning through modulating Cu/Co ratio in MOF-74, Cu0.15Co2.85O4/C with 5% Cu-doping featuring oxygen vacancy concentration of 26.25% exhibits the decrease to 261.5 °C with heat release up to 1222.1 J g-1 (456.9 °C and 669.2 J g-1 for pure AP). The detail process of AP accelerated decomposition is approved by TG-DSC-FTIR-MS technique. Density functional theory calculation revealed that in the Cu0.15Co2.85O4/C, the distinctive ability for NH3 catalyzed oxidation assisted with absorption performance of active porous C boosts accelerating AP decomposition. The findings would provide an insight for perceiving and understanding AP catalytic decomposition.
