Nanostructuring of a one-dimensional zinc antimonate electrode material through a precipitation strategy for use in supercapacitors

Abstract

The electrochemical properties of ZnSb2O6 nanorods consisting of two types of heterovalent metal cations, Zn2+ and Sb5+, have been investigated. A significant specific capacitance of 53.3 F g−1 was achieved and the nanorods were found to be phenomenally stable, with a capacitance retention of 103.5%. The ZnSb2O6 nanorods are proposed to be a suitably active electrode material for use in supercapacitors.
