Popis: The electrochemical properties of layer-structured H x (Ni 1/3 Co 1/3 Mn 1/3 )O 2 were examined for the first time to evaluate its use as an electrode for an electrochemical capacitor in alkaline aqueous solutions. The protonated H x (Ni 1/3 Co 1/3 Mn 1/3 )O 2 (HNCM) was prepared by reacting Li(Ni 1/3 Co 1/3 Mn 1/3 )O 2 (LNCM) with an HCl aqueous solution. The HNCM exhibited a large capacitance of 720 F g −1 (290 mAh g −1 , −1 to 0.45 V vs. Hg/HgO) at a current density of 50 mA g −1 in 8 M KOH aqueous solution, which is the highest level for the bulk electrodes in aqueous solutions. High power density, that is a capacitance of 560 F g −1 at a large current density of 1500 mA g −1 , was also confirmed. The HNCM exhibited good cycle stability, especially in 1 M KOH aqueous solution. The HNCM was found to be a promising electrode material for electrochemical capacitors because of its large capacitance, high cycle stability, and high rate capability.
