Synthesis of graphene-multiwalled carbon nanotubes hybrid nanostructure by strengthened electrostatic interaction and its lithium ion battery application
Abstract
We report a novel way of synthesizing graphene-carbon nanotube hybrid nanostructure as an anode for lithium (Li) ion batteries. For this, graphene was prepared by the solar exfoliation of graphite oxide, while multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were prepared by the chemical vapor deposition method. The graphene–MWNT hybrid nanostructure was synthesized by first modifying graphene surface using a cationic polyelectrolyte and MWNT surface with acid functionalization. The hybrid structure was obtained by homogeneous mixing of chemically modified graphene and MWNT constituents. This hybrid nanostructure exhibits higher specific capacity and cyclic stability. The strengthened electrostatic interaction between the positively charged surface of graphene sheets and the negatively charged surface of MWNTs prevents the restacking of graphene sheets that provides a highly accessible area and short diffusion path length for Li-ions. The higher electrical conductivity of MWNTs promotes an easier movement of the electrons within the electrode. The present synthesis scheme recommends a new pathway for large-scale production of novel hybrid carbon nanomaterials for energy storage applications and underlines the importance of preparation routes followed for synthesizing nanomaterials.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
