    Multi-walled carbon nanotube modified basal plane pyrolytic graphite electrodes: Exploring heterogeneity, electro-catalysis and highlighting batch to batch variation

    We highlight the heterogeneity and electro-catalysis of multi-walled carbon nanotubes which is shown to be dependant on batch to batch variation via the use of cyclic voltammetry, X-ray photoelectron spectrosc...
