The phase and morphology analysis from XRD, FESEM and TEM revealing that the post annealing for the carbon formation is not affecting crystalline phase. The attachment of carbon on CoFe<inf>2</inf>O<inf>4</inf> MNPs for the nanocomposite formation is confirmed from the FESEM and TEM micrographs. The saturation magnetization of bare CoFe<inf>2</inf>O<inf>4</inf> MNPs is observed as 77 and it decreases to 65 emu/g for the carbon composite. The highest specific capacitance of 318 F/g is achieved for the nanocomposites formed at 400 °C. The electrochemical and magnetic characteristics of the carbon nanocomposites reveals that it could be used as a better candidate in the area of negative electrode materials for the magnetic field assisted electrochemical supercapacitor applications. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.restrictedAccessCAPACITANCECARBONCOFE2O4SUPERCAPACITORSURFACE MODIFICATIONCARBON MODIFIEDCHEMICAL OXIDATIONCOBALT FERRITESEXPERIMENTAL PARAMETERSNEGATIVE ELECTRODE MATERIALPYROLYSIS PROCESSPYROLYTIC CARBONSIMPLE++SUPERCAPACITOR APPLICATIONSURFACE-MODIFICATIONPyrolytic carbon decorated cobalt ferrite nanostructures as a negative electrode material for improved supercapacitor applicationsArtículo https://doi.org/10.1016/j.diamond.2024.111822
