             abstract = "Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are known by their high 
                         active area, high electrical conductivity and chemical stability. 
                         These properties can promote better ions transportation, 
                         facilitating the double layer charging. MWCNTs unzipping process 
                         is an interesting alternative to improve capacitive behavior and 
                         surface area. In this work we report on the synthesis and 
                         electrochemical properties of unzipped carbon nanotubes. MWCNTs 
                         were obtained by thermal chemical vapor deposition. The unzipping 
                         process was carried out in a microwave chemical vapor deposition 
                         reactor. SEM micrographs showed graphene sheets presence. In Raman 
                         spectra, we notice an increase in D band intensity caused by 
                         carbon nanotubes unzipping. By analyzing X-ray diffraction 
                         patterns, we noticed a peak at 10° related to graphene oxide. We 
                         also observed the decrease in (002) peak intensity. Further, 
                         hydrogen plasma showed itself to be a promising alternative for 
                         graphene obtainment.",
