Silver decorated and Graphene Wrapped Polypyrrole@Ni(OH)(2) quaternary nanocomposite for high performance energy storage devices

In this work, silver (Ag) anchored over graphene (GN) wrapped polypyrrole (PPy)@ nickel hydroxide (Ni(OH)(2)) nanocomposites were synthesized through a combination of oxidative polymerization and hydrothermal processes. The synthesized Ag/GN@PPy-Ni(OH)(2) nanocomposites were characterized for their...
