This paper describes the synthesis and characterization of a new hybrid material based on poly(2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl-4-yl methacrylate) (PTMA) for lithium battery applications. Our strategy relies on the anchoring of nitroxide-embedding polymer chains onto multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). The resulting hybrid material (MWCNT-g-PTMA) not only prevents the solubilization of the PTMA active material but also benefits from its structural design aspects. The MWCNT-g-PTMA structure confers high performances thanks to the precise distribution of the PTMA redox material with respect to the MWCNT conductive network, as confirmed by molecular modeling simulations of the polymer/MWCNT interface. Physicochemical characterizations are evidence of the success of MWCNT-g-PTMA synthesis with a polymer loading up to 30 wt%. Electrochemical analysis shows the potential of MWCNT-g-PTMA as a battery material, with a capacity reaching 85% of the theoretical value, a good cyclability (retention > 80% after 150 cycles) and excellent power performances (capacity at 60C exceeding 65% of the nominal value).
