Carbon nanotubes/polyaniline (CNT/PANI) nanocomposites were synthesized by the interfacial polymerization of aniline in the presence of CNTs using two green solvents, water and an ionic liquid (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, [bmim][BF4]), as the two phases.The formation and incorporation of PANI on chewmax pet products chicken feet natural chew dog treats the surface of the CNTs were confirmed by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.The analyses showed that the surface of the CNTs was coated with different morphologies of thin PANI layers depending on whether a HCl or HNO3 solution was used.The thermal stability of the composites was much better than that asus vivobook r565ea of the bare CNTs and pure PANI.

The as-prepared composites were also used to modify the nickel foam electrodes for characterization of the electrochemical properties.
