Graphene and Carbon Nanotubes Fibrous Composite Decorated with PdMg Alloy Nanoparticles with Enhanced Absorption–Desorption Kinetics for Hydrogen Storage Application

We describe a graphene and fibrous multiwall carbon nanotubes (<i>f</i>-MWCNT) composite film prepared by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition for use as a suitable and possible candidate of hydrogen storage materials. A high storage capacity of 5.53 wt% has been obtained with impro...
