Lithium-ion batteries require novel materials for increasing their cychng stability and power delivering capability. Polypyrrole/reduced graphene oxide nanocomposite is used as cathode in a lithium-ion battery and enhanced electrochemical properties are observed such as high rate capability and improved cycling stability [71 ]. 

Wang et al. synthesized Graphene/SnO /polypyrrole ternary nanocomposites by one-pot synthesis method and obtained specific capacitance of 616 F/g. They claimed that the excellent electrochemical performance was due to the synergistic effect among the three components [46].
