Abstract
Two-dimensional materials have attracted growing interest in research because of their specific electronic, physical, optical and mechanical properties. Molybdenum disulfide was theoretically investigated as novel energy storage materials because of its unusual physicochemical properties. This paper describes easy approach to fabricate molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) electrode using slurry technique on conducting substrate namely Ni foam as current collector for supercapacitor device application. This MoS2 electrode exhibits relatively good specific gravimetric capacitance, (Csp) of 11.12 to 12.38 Fg-1 at 1 mVs-1 scan rate. Moreover, galvanostatic charge-discharge displays symmetrical triangular curves which attributed to the fast charge-discharge process (in seconds). These results show that MoS2 active material can be charged and discharged reversibly between 0.2 and 1.0 V (in 6 M KOH) and between 0.3 and 1.0 V (in 0.5 M Na2SO4). From cyclic stability test exhibits capacitance retention of up to 83% and 64% after 1000 cycles in 6 M KOH and 0.5 M Na2SO4, respectively. The MoS2 electrode is thus a promising material for future application of the supercapacitor.
