Polypyrrole (PPy) encapsulated 3D flower-like NiO was prepared to investigate the role of PPy coating for high-performance electrodes. NiO@PPy showed a better electrochemical performance than pure NiO, and a "trade-off effect" between electrical conductivity and ion diffusion resistance was observed with different PPy coating thickness.
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.
