obalt ferrite nanoparticles CoFe2O4 and their carbon based
and /or NT nanocomposites : CoFe2O4-CoCO3 , CoFe2O4-
CoCO3/NT have been successfully synthesized by a simple one
stephydrothermalmethod, usingNaOH, andureasurfactants. The
X-ray diffraction confirms the presence of cobalt ferrite and cobalt
ferrite-carbonate phases, the SEM and TEM analyzes reveals
the nanosized particles. The electrochemical performances of
these products were investigated by cyclic voltammetry, charge–
discharge and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in 6M
KOHaqueous electrolyte, ina three-electrode system. Amaximum
specific capacitances (capacities) of 246 F.g-1 (27 mAh.g-1), 285
F.g-1 (31 mAh.g-1) and 277 F.g-1 (30 mAh.g-1) were obtained
respectively for CoFe2O4 , CoFe2O4-CO3 and CoFe2O4-CoCO3/
NT at a current density of 0,5 A/g. The Cobalt ferrite-carbonate
shows an excellent capacitance retention of 97,8% after 1000
cycles at a current density of 5A/g.

Biography
Dr. Aicha Harat is a teacher-researcher and head of a team research on LE-
REC laboratory (University of Annaba, Algeria). Her principal research topic
is magnetic and high Tc superconducting materials. Now she deals with
magnetic nanoparticles and their carbon based nanocomposites synthe-
sized by various methods (co-precipitation, hydrothermal, combustion…)
and their application in supercapacitors for energy storage.
