Synthesis and Characterization of Fe0.5Co0.5S/Ag-Citrate for Energy Storage Applications
Supercapacitors are widely recognized for their high power and energy densities. This study explores Fe0.5Co0.5S and its Ag-citrate composite for supercapacitors. Synthesized via coprecipitation, the composite was characterized using SEM and XRD, confirming its formation. Electrochemical tests revealed enhanced performance: CV oxidation current rose from 16.5 mA to 33.89 mA, GCD discharge time increased from 44.8 s to 129 s, and specific capacitance jumped from 37.3 F/g to 107.5 F/g—nearly threefold. EIS results also improved. The Ag-citrate addition boosted conductivity and capacitance, making the composite a promising supercapacitor material.
