A low-cost bio-mass-derived carbon substrate has been employed to synthesize MoS2@carbon composites through a hydrothermal method. Carbon fibers derived from natural cotton provide a three-dimensional and open framework for the uniform growth of MoS2 nanosheets, thus constructing hierarchically coaxial architecture. The unique structure could synergistically benefit fast Li-ion and electron transport from the conductive carbon scaffold and porous MoS2 nanostructures. As a result, the MoS2@carbon composites, when served as anodes for Li-ion batteries, exhibit a high reversible specific capacity of 820 mAh g-1, high-rate capability (457 mAh g-1 at 2 A g-1), and excellent cycling stability. The superior electrochemical performance makes the MoS2@carbon composites to be low-cost and promising anode materials for Li-ion batteries.

B doping plays an important role in improving the conductivity and electrochemical properties of Si anodes for Li-ion batteries. Herein, we developed a facile and massive production strategy to fabricate C-coated B-doped Si (B-Si@C) nanorod anodes using casting intermediate alloys of Al-Si and Al-B and dealloying followed by C coating. The B-Si@C nanorod anodes demonstrate a high specific capacity of 560 mAg-1, with a high initial coulombic efficiency of 90.6% and substantial cycling stability. Notably, the melting cast approach is facile, simple, and applicable to doping treatments, opening new possibilities for the development of low-cost, environmentally benign, and high-performance Li-ion batteries.
