This paper reports a method for fabricating pie-shaped CoMoO4 nanomaterials. The morphologic characterization and phase analysis showed that the prepared material was CoMoO4 and presented a pie-shape. Pie-shaped CoMoO4 electrode materials possess high specific capacitance in three-electrode electrochemical measurement systems. When the current density is 1 A/g, the specific capacitance reaches 1902 F/g. In addition, it has good cycle stability. With 10,000 charge–discharge cycle experiments at a current density of 15 A/g, pie-shaped CoMoO4 has a specific capacity retention ratio of 99.5%. In addition, the CoMoO4//CNTs device can provide a maximum energy density of 55.6 Wh/kg (1 A/g) and a maximum power density of 10,900 W/kg (15 A/g), showing good electrochemical performance. The photocatalytic properties of pie-shaped CoMoO4 were also studied. The results show that the degradation rates of MO (methyl orange), MB (methyl blue), and CR (Congo red) can reach 97.8%, 98.8%, and 99.6% at 100 min, 40 min, and 65 min, respectively. The material has good photocatalytic performance. The excellent performance of pie-shaped CoMoO4 indicates that the electrode material has potential application scenarios in electrode materials and photocatalysis.

In this paper, Co3O4 nanosheets were prepared by the hydrothermal method. The structure of the material was analyzed by morphological characterization and physical phase analysis, which confirmed the preparation of the product, Co3O4, showing a nanosheet structure. By studying the electrochromic properties of the prepared products, the results show that the transmittance modulation range of the Co3O4 nanosheet is 75% at 780 nm. The coloring response time and bleaching response time is about 3.8 s and 3.4 s, respectively. Electrochemical tests show that the Co3O4 nanosheets have good capacitive properties. Their specific capacitance reaches 1850 F/g when the current density is 1 A/g. When the current density is 5 A/g, the specific capacitance can still maintain 99.6% after 5000 cycles. In addition, Co3O4//CNTs devices can provide a maximum energy density of 79.52 Wh/kg (1 A/g) and a maximum power density of 11,000 W/kg (15 A/g), showing good energy storage capacity. The above data results indicate that the prepared Co3O4 nanosheets can be used as good candidates for supercapacitors. This paper provides a new idea and method for preparing Co3O4 materials.
