Energy storage technologies are pivotal in transitioning to sustainable energy solutions. Catalysts improve the energy storage efficiency, enhancing reaction kinetics and enabling advanced electrochemical processes. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are noteworthy catalyst materials due to their exceptional electrical conductivity, large surface area, and unique structural properties. This chapter provides a thorough overview of Carbon nanotube-based catalysts for energy storage applications, covering their synthesis, functionalization, electrochemical characterization, and practical implementations. The synthesis of carbon nanotube-based catalysts is examined, focusing on methods like chemical vapor deposition (CVD), arc discharge, laser ablation, and plasma-enhanced synthesis. Functionalization techniques, including surface modification, metal/non-metal doping, composite formation with metal oxides and conducting polymers, are examined to understand their role in enhancing catalytic performance. Electrochemical analysis is crucial in evaluating the efficiency of carbon nanotube-based catalysts. This chapter deals with essential techniques such as cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), chronoamperometry, and Tafel analysis, emphasizing their role in understanding charge storage mechanisms. The application of carbon nanotube-based catalysts in supercapacitors, lithium-ion/sodium-ion batteries, fuel cells, and hydrogen evolution reactions is explored, discussing their impact on energy storage performance. Despite their advantages, challenges in areas such as large-scale synthesis, stability, and cost remain a point of concern. The chapter concludes by discussing future directions and the potential impact of CNT-based catalysts in advancing next-generation energy storage technologies.
