Layered double hydroxide nanocomposites based on carbon nanoforms

摘要: Abstract Carbon nanoform (CNF)/layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanocomposites have been widely studied in recent years thanks to the combination of properties both LDH and carbon nanomaterials. They exhibit improved or unexpected as a consequence their hierarchical structures. There are three main reported approaches prepare nanocomposites: reassembly nanocarbons LDHs, direct formation LDHs on nanocarbon materials, synthesis phase. The resulting CNF/LDH conductivity, mechanical properties, redox reactivity; moreover, hybridization confers porosities better dispersion final materials. These hybrids utmost interest several fields, can also be used wide range practical applications including batteries, supercapacitors, water splitting, catalysts, flame retardants, drug delivery, environment protection, among others. In conclusion, these expected major importance because chemical versatility, straightforward synthesis, low cost, excellent behavior toward very demanding topics such energy storage conversion catalysis.
