▎ 摘  要

Zinc-air battery is considered as one of the promising energy storage devices due to their low cost, eco-friendly and safe. Here, we present a simple approach to the preparation of cobalt sulfide nanoparticles supported on a nitrogen and sulfur co-doped graphene oxide surface. Cobalt sulfide nanoparticles dispersed on graphene oxide hybrid was successfully prepared by solid state thermolysis approach at 400 degrees C, using cobalt thiourea and graphene oxide. X-ray diffraction study revealed that hybrid electrode prepared at 400 degrees C results in pure CoS2 phase. The hybrid CoS2(400)/N, S-GO electrode exhibits low overpotential gap about 0.78 V vs. Zn after 70 cycles with remarkable and robust charge and discharge profile. And also the CoS2(400)/N, S-GO showing deep discharge behavior with stability up to 7.5 h. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
