Abstract: An electrode including a substrate, a binding compound, and a composite. The composite includes jute-activated carbon and a nickel-cobalt-layered double hydroxide (NiCoLDH). Particles of the NiCoLDH are in the form of nanoflowers with an average size of 5-15 ?m. The nanoflowers comprise nanosheets with an average thickness of 5-20 nm. The particles of the jute-activated carbon are in the form of interconnected nanosheets, which form a porous carbon framework. The porous carbon framework connects the nanoflowers, thereby forming an interconnected structure in the composite. A mixture of the composite and the binding compound is coated on the surface of the substrate. The electrode can be included in supercapacitors and power banks.

Abstract: A method for making an electrocatalyst containing manganese oxide nanoparticles present on carbon obtained from Albizia procera (MnOxNPs-C) for electrochemical water oxidation. The method includes a thermal decomposition and forms a product with specific morphological variations, including crystalline structure, elemental composition, and chemical compatibility. The manganese oxide nanoparticles are well dispersed over the carbon. The amount of manganese oxide nanoparticles increases by increasing the amount of precursor. Single-phase formation of the Mn3O4, and Mn3O4 along with MnO phase occurs at low and high amount of the precursor materials, respectively. The electrocatalyst can be used for the purpose electrolytic water splitting.
