Highly uniform and monodispersed CuCo 2 S 4 ball‐in‐ball hollow nanospheres (HNSs) are successfully synthesized from CuCo‐glycerate nanospheres (NSs) precursors via a facile two‐step solvothermal process. The most influential parameter in anion exchange reaction between glycerate and sulfur ion is the solvothermal time, which plays a significant role in enhancing the structural and electrochemical properties. Impressively, CuCo 2 S 4 ball‐in‐ball HNSs obtained through a sulfurization reaction time of 18 h show high capacitance (442 F g −1 at current density of 0.5 A g −1 ) and superior electrochemical stability (84.5% at 5 A g −1 after 5000 cycles), which can realize high‐performance materials for supercapacitors.
