The influence of the addition of rGO and CNT on the electrochemical properties of the batteries the LaNi-Based Battery Alloys

Abstract

In this article the results of the investigation are reported where batteries were made from the negative electrodes of the alloy La0.7Mg0.3Al0.3Mn0.4Co0.5Ni3,8, without annealing, adding 0, 1, 2, 5, 10% , both for carbon nanotube (CNT) and for reduced graphene oxide (rGO) where the discharge capacity obtained during the electrochemical characterization showed that in the addition of 1% rGO the discharge capacity was 332 mAh and 1% CNT 364 mAh , being that the rGO batteries maintaining better cyclic stability during the electrochemical test. The addition materials CNT and rGO were characterized by high resolution MEV-FEV - Field emission gun.
