Our study presents a facile hydrothermal approach for synthesizing NiMn 2 O 4 and NiMn 2 O 4 /C nanostructures (NSs) intended for implementation as electrode materials in highperformance supercapacitors. The NiMn 2 O 4 and NiMn 2 O 4 /C NSs synthesized via the hydrothermal method were comprehensively characterized using XRD, FE-SEM, FT-IR, XPS, and BET. Subsequently, the electrochemical performance of both NiMn 2 O 4 and NiMn 2 O 4 /C was evaluated via CV, GCD, and EIS in 2 M KOH aqueous electrolyte. Our results demonstrate that the NiMn 2 O 4 /C electrode revealed a substantial specific capacitance/capacity of 789.3 F g −1 /552.5 C g −1 at a scan rate of 5 mV s −1 . Furthermore, the NiMn 2 O 4 /C electrode maintained a specific capacity retention of less than 4% after 5000 cycles. When coupled with an activated carbon (AC) electrode, the NiMn 2 O 4 /C//AC configuration exhibited a notable specific capacitance/capacity of 101.6 F g −1 /162.5 C g −1 , accompanied by a high energy density of 36.11 W h kg −1 at a power density of 1000 W kg −1 , and sustained excellent cyclic stability (84% retention after 5000 cycles). Additionally, electrochemical analysis revealed an overpotential of 199 mV at 50 mA cm −2 and a minimal Tafel slope of 89 mV dec −1 for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), suggesting the suitability of the NiMn 2 O 4 /C electrode for alkaline water electrocatalysis. Prolonged chronopotentiometry investigations at 100 mA cm −2 over 24 h further demonstrated a remarkable 97.3% retention of the OER activity.
