Dextran assisted greener route has been used for the fabrication of mesoporous Co3O4/Carbon composite via co- precipitation method followed by heat treatment. The structural, morphological, elemental and pore size analysis were made for the prepared composites. The electrochemical characteristics of Co3O4/C composites have been studied using cyclic voltammetry (CV), Galvanostatic charge-discharge (GCD) and AC - impedance (EIS) analysis. Co3O4/C composite prepared at 500°C exhibits maximum specific capacitance and 93.4% capacitance retention even at 2000 continuous charge-discharge cycles. The electrochemical performance of the hybrid material has been evaluated by the fabrication of symmetric supercapacitors, which exhibits the specific capacitance of 154Fg−1 at the sweep rate of 2mVs−1, signifies that the Co3O4/Carbon composite prepared at 500°C is an excellent candidate for supercapacitor applications.
