Abstract
. The electrochemical impedance analysis indicates that the incorporation of GO enhances the conductivity of the nanocomposite in the charge transfer resistance at the electrode/electrolyte interface due to the incorporation of GO. The large surface areas provided by the GO sheets allow faster transport of charge carriers into the electrode and improve the electrochemical properties of the PS/GO nanocomposite. Considering the simplicity and effectiveness of the synthesis proses, the result indicates that the PS/GO nanocomposite could be a potential alternative for bio-friendly, flexible energy-storage applications.
