abstract = "The possibility of surface functionalization and formation of stable aqueous suspensions make graphene oxide (GO) suitable as base for composite materials, especially with nanoparticles. Cobalt ferrite (CFO) has attracted attention due to its unique properties such as large magnetic anisotropy, high coercivity, moderate saturation magnetization, excellent chemical stability, mechanical hardness, etc. This study presents the electrochemical properties of GO and CFO composites, as well as CFO doped with zinc (CFO_Zn) and gallium (CFO_Ga). Magnetic nanoparticles were synthesized using the solvothermal method, after which the oleic acid was exchanged with dihydrocaffeic acid to obtain the hydrophilic material. GO was synthesized using a modified Hummer's method. Composites of GO and magnetic nanoparticles were synthesized by the hydrothermal method (T = 120 °C, t = 3 h), with nominal fractions of 5 and 15 wt.% of magnetic nanoparticles. X-ray structural diffraction, as well as FTIR analysis, confirmed the complete oxidation of graphene layers. SEM and TEM images showed deposition of magnetic nanoparticles on GO layer with the different distribution density between 5 wt.% and 15 wt.% composites. Also, shape and size of magnetic nanoparticles remained unchanged. Based on FTIR analysis of hydrothermally treated GO and composites a partial reduction of epoxy groups was found along with hydrogen bond established between the components of the composite. The electrochemical charge storage of composites is mainly of pseudocapacitive nature, which originates from the oxidoreduction reactions of H+ ions from electrolytes and surface functional groups of GO. The best electrochemical properties, in terms of the highest specific capacity, were shown by the composite which contains 15 wt.% CFO, which value is 36.86 F g-1 at a polarization rate of 5 mV s-1",
