This research explores the production and detailed analysis of Fe₂O₃/g-C₃N₄ nanocomposites, FeBTC, iron oxide (Fe₂O₃), and graphitic carbon nitride (g-C₃N₄), assessing their suitability as potential
electrode materials for supercapacitors. Fe₂O₃ was synthesized by subjecting the Fe-BTC to controlled
calcination in an oxygen-enriched atmosphere, facilitating its complete transformation into the oxide
phase. Although the initial electrochemical performance of pure Fe2O3 was found to be suboptimal,
the incorporation of g-C3N4 in a 50/50 weight ratio led to a marked improvement in its electrochemical
properties, indicating the potential of the Fe2O3/g-C3N4 nanocomposite for enhanced energy storage
capabilities. Various techniques were employed to examine the particle size, structural characteristics,
and morphology, verifying the effective nanocomposite synthesis. Electrochemical evaluations
were subsequently carried out to evaluate the supercapacitor efficiency of the nanocomposite.
Electrochemical evaluations demonstrated that the Fe₂O₃/g-C₃N₄ nanocomposite delivered an
outstanding specific capacitance of 1055 F/g, together with a power density of 175W kg⁻¹ and an
energy density of 71.8 Wh kg⁻¹ at a current density of 0.5A g⁻¹. A Coulombic efficiency of 97.2%,
coupled with remarkable cycling stability, maintaining 94.2% after 1000 cycles and a small chargetransfer resistance of 1.34 Ω, highlights the superior electrochemical characteristics of the electrode.
