【Abstract】 Cobalt hydroxide, often used as an additive in nickel electrode, is rarely studied as active material for supercapacitors. In this paper, the Co(OH)2 with the particle size less than 20nm by deposition transformation was synthesized. Its single electrode specific capacitance was measured to be 92F·g-1, and the electrode resistance was so low that the initial potential drop when discharging is unobvious even the discharge current increased to 200mA for a 1cm2 electrode. After ten thousand cycles, Co(OH)2 on the electrode changes to Co3O4 gradually, the resistance of the electrode does not increase much, while the specific capacitance increases to 133F·g-1 at 10mA。更多还原
