Abstract

Cobalt oxide was composite with MWNT to attain cycle stable by chemical method. We have been considered CoOx is the ideal material for high energy density electrochemical capacitor due to pseudo capacitor reaction. In this study we found that decrease in resistance due to composite MWNT. Also CoOx/MWNT composite material have resulted larger capacitance and exhibits better electrochemical behavior. The structural feature was investigated by using SEM. The CoOx/MWNT composite is not only a promising ultracapacitor material for energy storages but also has a good possibility because of its great capacitive properties, simple preparation and low cost.
