Summary: To overcome the limitations of nickel-based cathode in energy storage, the researchers introduced suitable cobalt content and utilized bamboo cellulose nanofibers-derived carbon framework to construct a nickel-based cathode with a 3D network structure (Co-Ni/NiO@C). The Co-Ni/NiO@C exhibited fast electrons/ions transfer, efficient reversible reaction, high specific capacity of 241 mAh/g, and excellent rate performance (78.1% retention after a 20-folder current increase). When used as the cathode in a Ni-Zn battery, the Co-Ni/NiO@C showed a specific capacity of 321 mAh/g and retained 77.8% after a 20-folder current increase, indicating good rate capability. Moreover, the Co-Ni/NiO@C//Zn battery demonstrated outstanding cycling performance (94.2% retention after 2500 cycles). This work expands the possibilities of developing biomass carbon-derived electrode materials for large-scale energy storage systems.
