Microwave-assisted hydrothermal synthesis and electrochemical characterization of niobium pentoxide/carbon nanotubes composites
Abstract
This study reports the fabrication of high mass loading (32 mg/cm2) electrodes of niobium pentoxide (Nb2O5) nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) using a facile procedure. The as-obtained Nb2O5 nanoparticles by microwave-assisted hydrothermal synthesis presented pseudohexagonal (TT) phase, and when exposed to the thermal treatment, the Nb2O5 nanoparticles changed to orthorhombic (T) phase. Distinct morphologies were obtained, which …
