This technique allows for the controlled modification of MWCNTs in both transverse and longitudinal directions. The UzMWCNT exhibits unique structural characteristics that combine the properties of 1D nanotubes and graphene-like features. The UzMWCNT/PPy composite exhibited an impressive specific capacitance of 944 F g?1 along with excellent cycling stability, retaining 92% of its capacitance after 5000 cycles. For the UzMWCNT/PPy//AC composite, the gravimetric capacitance decreased with increasing current density, from 400 F g?1 at 1.0 A g?1 to 162 F g?1 at 2.5 A g?1. Furthermore, the UzMWCNT/PPy//AC composite demonstrated outstanding long-term durability, retaining approximately 95% of its capacitance after 5000 cycles at a current density of 5 A g?1, underscoring its excellent cycling stability. This research paves the way for the development of high-performance supercapacitor electrodes using hybrid materials derived from MWCNTs. 2025 RSC.
