The potential use of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) produced by chemical vapour deposition (CVD) as a conductive agent for electrodes in Li-ion batteries has been investigated. LiNi0.33Co0.33Mn0.33O2 (NCM) has been chosen as active material for positive electrodes, and a nano-sized TiO2-rutile for the negative electrodes. The electrochemical performances of the electrodes were studied by galvanostatic techniques and especially the influence of the nanotubes on the rate capability and cycling stability has been evaluated. The addition of MWCNTs significantly enhanced the rate performances of both positive and negative electrodes and improved the capacity retention upon cycling. The obtained results demonstrated that the addition of MWCNTs in low amounts to the electrode composition enables an increase in both energy and power density of a Li-ion battery.

The composite electrodes of cobalt oxide and multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are prepared by a simple low-temperature solid-phase synthesis method with the assistance of polyethylene glycol and their pseudocapacitive performances are investigated in alkaline solution by cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge/discharge tests, respectively. Transmission electron microscope images show that cobalt oxide is uniformly coated on multi-wall carbon nanotubes and the homogeneous hybrid nanostructure are considered to be responsible for their preferable electrochemical performances. The electrochemical tests further reveal that the composite can deliver a maximum specific capacitance of 217 F/g with a biggest utilization of Co element when the content of MWCNTs increases to 50 wt.%.
