Abstract

α-Ni(OH)₂ materials with micro/nano hierarchical structure were prepared by a facile homogeneous precipitation method with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as accessory ingredient. It was found that the introduction of SDS can refine the grain size of α-Ni(OH)₂ and facilitate the formation of micro/nano hierarchical morphology with a more open structure as evidenced by XRD, SEM, FT-IR, TGA, and XPS analysis. Results of electrochemical test demonstrate that the α-Ni(OH)₂ sample synthesized with the n(SDS)/n(Ni²⁺) of 2∶10 exhibits the best lithium ions storage performance. After 40 cycles at the current density of 2 A·g^-1 the α-Ni(OH)₂ sample maintained a specific capacity of 800 mAh·g^-1; even at the high current density of 3 A·g^-1 it still delivered a reversible specific capacity of 710 mAh·g^-1. Moreover, it shows a significant pseudo-capacitive effect during discharge/charge processes (the pseudo-capacitive contribution to the total stored charge is as high as 84.2% at 0.9 mV·s^-1).

Key words: inorganic non-metallic materials nickel hydroxide homogeneous precipitation method anode materials sodium dodecyl sulfate lithium-ion batteries
