Electrochemical and electrical properties of nickel molybdate / carbon material composites

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to establish the optimal content of carbon material in composites with nanocrystal hydrate nickel molybdate. To achieve this, NiMoO4 / C composites with a carbon material content of 1, 5 and 10% by weight (with and without ultrasonic irradiation) were obtained by hydrothermal method. As a result of electrochemical studies, it was found that the maximum specific capacitance of 628 F/g is reached by a composite with a carbon content of 1% after ultrasonic exposure, while this composite shows excellent electrical conductivity, which is 0.47 Ohm-1m-1.
