Functional Carbon NanotubeMesoporous CarbonMnO2 Hybrid Network for High-Performance Supercapacitors

Abstract EN

A functional carbon nanotube/mesoporous carbon/MnO2 hybrid network has been developed successfully through a facile route.

The resulting composites exhibited a high specific capacitance of 351 F/g at 1 A g−1, with intriguing charge/discharge rate performance and cycling stability due to a synergistic combination of large surface area and excellent electron-transport capabilities of MnO2 with the good conductivity of the carbon nanotube/mesoporous carbon networks.

Such composite shows great potential to be used as electrodes for supercapacitors.
