Improved electrochemical property of copper nitrate hydrate by multi-wall carbon nanotube

• Cu(NO3)2·xH2O/MWCNT (2.5• Cu(NO3)2·xH2O particles embed in the three-dimensional network of MWCNT.
• The lithium storage capability of Cu(NO3)2·xH2O is improved by MWCNT.
• Cu(NO3)2·xH2O/MWCNT shows a reversible capacity of 980.2 mAh g-1 at 50 mA g-1.
• A reversible capacity of 642.0 mAh g-1 can be delivered at 250 mA g-1.

By using multi-wall carbon nanotube (MWCNT), a well-dispersed composite of Cu(NO3)2 · xH2O/MWCNT (2.5
