Electrochemical performance comparison of MWCNTs/Ni (OH)₂ composite materials by two preparation routes

Carbon materials are used to improve the nickel hydroxide electrode capacity in rechargeable alkaline batteries. Herein, we present the preparation of multiwall carbon nanotubes/nickel hydroxide composites (MWCNTs/Ni (OH)₂) by two different routes. The first method consists of the direct incorporati...
