Abstract

Polyaniline (PANI) conductive polymer has been widely used for energy storage devices due to its high flexibility, easy for synthesis and low cost. However, along with this growth in electrode fabrication, there are increasing concern over the stability of PANI. Therefore, the application of PANI with graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) active material may cover PANI deficiency. The primary purpose of this study is to develop an understanding of (PANI) synthesized by oxidative polymerization of aniline using dodecylbenzene sulfonic acid (DBSA) which was modified with graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs). These significant properties will focus on electrial conductivity, potential application and its associated advantages. Modification of PANI in enhancing electrical conductivity it is advisable to continue in the future to obtain energy storage-conversion effects.
