Charles University Faculty of Science Study programme: Inorganic Chemistry Mgr. Barbora Hyklová Layered Transition Metal Hydroxides: Delamination and Properties Extended abstract Supervisor: Ing. Kamil Lang CSc., DSc. Supervisor-Consultant: RNDr. Jan Demel PhD. Prague, 2017 Layered transition-metal hydroxides have attracted increasing attention as promising active electrode materials for electrochemical energy storage and conversion device due to facile preparation and modification, good tunability, high capacitance capability, fast reversible redox reactions, and cost effectiveness. Many reported hierarchical architectures based on nickel and cobalt hydroxides are composed of bulky nanoplatelet-like aggregates; however, the nanomorphology and behavior of the separated hydroxide nanosheets is much less known. Figure 1. Scheme of layered nickel or cobalt hydroxide delamination and subsequent restacking on conductive HOPG support. In this respect, the dissertation thesis reports characterization and electrochemical performance of nickel, nickel-cobalt, and cobalt hydroxide nanosheets, synthesized by an economical and environmentally friendly method based on delamination of corresponding layered hydroxides in water (Figure 1). For this purpose, lactate and nitrate layered hydroxides were prepared by two...
