Lithium-ion batteries lead the market for portable electronics due to their high energy density, long cycle life, and relatively low self-discharge rate. Nonetheless, the demand for lithium-ion batteries in emerging applications such as electric vehicles and grid storage has placed increased pressure on the supply chain of critical battery material

Recent research have demonstrated the significant potential of porous coordination polymers in encapsulating nanoparticles to enhance graphene incorporation. This synergistic strategy offers novel opportunities for improving the efficiency of graphene-based composites. By carefully selecting both the MOF structure and the encapsulated nanoparticles

In this study, we describe a novel strategy for the synthesis and characterization of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) covalently attached with iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4|Fe2O3|FeO). The fabrication process involves a two-step approach, first bonding SWCNTs onto a compatible substrate and then incorporating Fe3O4 nanoparticles via a hyd
