Analysis of the Structural Evolution of Graphene-CNT-Polypyrrole Nanocomposite

Abstract

The following work reports the evolution of the formation of polypyrrole (PPy) chains and it's intercalation with graphene-carbon nanotubes (G-CNT) nanocomposites. Experiments were carried out to demonstrate the growth of pyrrole through polymerization and its interaction with G-CNT using Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) for 5 – 50 cycles. The interface analysis of the nanocomposite was carried out through SEM. The G-CNT-PPy nanocomposite has shown potential to be used as a supercapacitor which can be further substantiated by CV experiments.
