Abstract

This study evaluates the effectiveness of chemical functionalization of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with polypyrrole (PPy) via chemical oxidative polymerization on the electrical conductivity and electrochemical supercapacitive properties of the PPy-MWCNTs functional hybrids. They demonstrate good specific capacitance up to 268 F/g at a current density of 1 A/g and a good cycling stability, which is higher than that of pure PPy. These advanced electrodes can be used as high-performance electrochemical energy storage supercapacitors.
