Synthesis and Capacitance of Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotube/Polyaniline Nanocomposites

Abstract

We report on the synthesis and electrochemical properties of multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT)/polyaniline (PANI) nanocomposites. The MWNT/PANI composite was prepared through electrochemical polymerization and is confirmed by ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis) spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The MWNT/PANI nanocomposites show a specific capacitance value as high as 463 F/g.
