Description: 
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have been combined with graphene and/or carbon nanotubes to prepare new composite materials with fascinating electrochemical features. For the first time, this work describes the development of an electrosynthesis protocol that allows the deposition of thin films of a Ni/Al LDH on glassy carbon electrodes previously modified with carbon nanomaterials. Three different approaches (potentiostatic, galvanostatic, and potentiodynamic) were investigated to identify the best procedure. In all cases the potentiodynamic synthesis exhibits better reproducibility than the potentiostatic one which is the most used in the literature. The reliability of the synthesis protocol was evaluated by performing the LDH electrodeposition using glassy carbon electrodes modified with multiwalled carbon nanotubes and/or electrochemically reduced graphene oxide arranged in five configurations. XRD and …
