The results show that the spinel manganese cobaltite (MnCo2O4) with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanocomposite forms a uniform deposit and densely covers on the nickel foam (NF). The electrochemical measurements were investigated in three methods, such as cyclic voltammetry (CV), galvanostatic charge/discharge (GCD), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The synergistic effects from rGO and MnCo2O4 deliver outstanding an excellent electrochemical performance that was not realized by any of these components alone. The electroactive material exhibits a high specific capacitance of Csp = 808 F/g at 2 mV/s in 1 M KOH solution. Furthermore, this device delivers an excellent power density of P = 7658 W/kg and a high energy density of E = 15.2 Wh/kg. More importantly, cycling retention is 135% after 1000 charge/discharge cycles. This study proposes that the as-prepared (rGO/MnCo2O4)/nickel foam has a potential application and a promising candidate for energy storage devices. © 2020, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.en10.1007/s11581-020-03713-3info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessElectrochemical performanceManganese cobaltiteNickel foamReduced graphene oxideSupercapacitorCobalt compoundsCost effectivenessCyclic voltammetryElectrochemical impedance spectroscopyEnergy storageGrapheneManganese compoundsPotassium hydroxideReduced Graphene OxideSupercapacitorCharge/discharge cycleElectroactive materialElectrochemical measurementsElectrochemical performanceGalvanostatic charge/dischargeHigh specific capacitancesNanocomposite electrodesReduced graphene oxides (RGO)FoamsArticle261157255735Q3WOS:0005566186000012-s2.0-85089089541Q2
