ABSTRACTAn efficient microwave-assisted polyol (MP) approach is report to prepare SnO2/graphene hybrid as an anode material for lithium ion batteries. The key factor to this MP method is to start with uniform graphene oxide (GO) suspension, in which a large amount of surface oxygenate groups ensures homogeneous distribution of the SnO2 nanoparticles onto the GO sheets under the microwave irradiation. The period for the microwave heating only takes 10 min. The obtained SnO2/graphene hybrid anode possesses a reversible capacity of 967 mAh g-1 at 0.1 C and a high Coulombic efficiency of 80.5% at the first cycle. The cycling performance and the rate capability of the hybrid anode are enhanced in comparison with that of the bare graphene anode. This improvement of electrochemical performance can be attributed to the formation of a 3-dimensional framework. Accordingly, this study provides an economical MP route for the fabrication of SnO2/graphene hybrid as an anode material for high-performance Li-ion batteries.

Capacity Decay

Transition metal oxide materials with high theoretical capacities have been studied as substitutes for commercial graphite in lithiumion batteries. Among these, SnO2 is a promising alloying reaction-based anode material. However, the problem of rapid capacity fading in SnO2 due to volume variation during the alloying/dealloying processes must be solved. The lithiation of SnO2 results in the formation of a Li2O matrix. Herein, the volume variation of SnO2 was suppressed by controlling the voltage window to 1 V to prevent the delithiation reaction between Li2O and Sn. Using this strategy the unreacted Li2O matrix was enriched with metallic Sn particles, thereby providing a pathway for lithium ions. The specific capacity decay in the voltage window of 0.05–3 V was 1.8% per cycle. However, the specific capacity decay was improved to 0.04% per cycle after the voltage window was restricted (in the range of 0.05–1 V). This strategy resulted in a specific capacity of 374.7 mAh g−1 at 0.1 C after 40 cycles for the SnO2 anode.

Membrane Electrode

A novel membrane electrode was fabricated by coating conductive slurry (K/Graphene composites as its important component) on copper foil. The membrane electrode, as anode of lithium ion battery, exhibited excellent columbic efficiency and specific capacity of 831 mAh g-1 after 1000 cycles. The K/Graphene composites presented a multi-layer nanostructure. It provided not only more intercalation space and intercalation sites for Li+ during the Li+ intercalation/extraction, but also alleviated the agglomeration of dispersed nanocrystals, as well as decreased the electrochemical impedance. The results suggest that the membrane electrode holds great potential as an anode material for LIBs.

Si Nanoparticles

Silicon nanoparticles have been successfully inserted into graphene sheets via a novel method combining freeze-drying and thermal reduction. The structure, electrochemical performance, and cycling stability of this anode material were characterized by SEM, X-ray diffraction (XRD), charge/discharge cycling, and cyclic voltammetry (CV). CV showed that the Si/graphene nanocomposite exhibits remarkably enhanced cycling performance and rate performance compared with bare Si nanoparticles for lithium ion batteries. XRD and SEM showed that silicon nanoparticles inserted into graphene sheets were homogeneous and had better layered structure than the bare silicon nanoparticles. Graphene sheets improved high rate discharge capacity and long cycle-life performance. The initial capacity of the Si nanoparticles/graphene keeps above 850 mAhg−1after 100 cycles at a rate of 100 mAg−1. The excellent cycle performances are caused by the good structure of the composites, which ensured uniform electronic conducting sheet and intensified the cohesion force of binder and collector, respectively.

Structural Characterizations

The good crystalline Sb2Se3 nanorods have been successfully synthesized through a simple polyol process. The detailed morphological and structural characterizations reveal that nanorods are composed of Sb2Se3 single crystals oriented along the [120] orientation; the tiny Sb2Se3 nanorods are found to display a higher crystallinity with respect to thick Sb2Se3 nanorods. The nanorods have been applied as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries, with tiny Sb2Se3 nanorod anodes delivering the relatively high discharge capacity of 702 mAh g−1 at 0.1 C and could maintain the capacity of 230 mAh g−1 after 100 cycles. A more stable cycling performance is also demonstrated on tiny Sb2Se3 nanorods, which is ascribed to their more pronounced one-dimensional nanostructure.

Tubular Structures

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), a typical two-dimensional material, is a promising anode material for lithium-ion batteries because it has three times the theoretical capacity of graphite. The main challenges associated with MoS2 anodes are the structural degradation and the low rate capability caused by the low intrinsic electric conductivity and large strain upon cycling. Here, we design hierarchical MoS2 tubular structures internally wired by carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to tackle these problems. These porous MoS2 tubular structures are constructed from building blocks of ultrathin nanosheets, which are believed to benefit the electrochemical reactions. Benefiting from the unique structural and compositional characteristics, these CNT-wired MoS2 tubular structures deliver a very high specific capacity of ~1320 mAh g−1 at a current density of 0.1 A g−1, exceptional rate capability, and an ultralong cycle life of up to 1000 cycles. This work may inspire new ideas for constructing high-performance electrodes for electrochemical energy storage.
