Large-size composite carbon nanotubes/polyaniline as supercapacitor electrode material has been investigated for optimization of the areal specific capacitance. Polyaniline, as conductive polymer, is synthesized on the structure of carbon nanotubes by an in situ method. Thicker the composite electrode and higher polyaniline loading increase the gravimetric and volumetric specific capacitance. It is noticeable that this report's areal specific capacitance can reach approximately 6.5 F cm −2 .
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
