Silicon-based anode materials have been widely discussed by researchers because of its high theoretical capacity, abundant resources and low working voltage platform,which has been considered to be the most promising anode materials for lithium-ion batteries. However,there are some problems existing in the silicon-based anode materials greatly limit its wide application: during the process of charge/discharge, the materials are prone to about 300% volume expansion, which will resultin huge stress-strain and crushing or collapse on the anods; in the process of lithium removal, there is some reaction between active material and current collector, which creat an increase in the thickness of the solid phase electrolytic layer(SEI film); during charging and discharging, with the increase of cycle times, cracks will appear on the surface of silicon-based anode materials, which will cause the batteries life to decline. In order to solve these problems, firstly, we summarize the design of porous structure of nanometer sized silicon-based materials and focus on the construction of three-dimensional structural silicon-based materials, which using natural biomass, nanoporous carbon and metal organic framework as structural template. The three-dimensional structure not only increases the channel of lithium-ion intercalation and the rate of ion intercalation, but also makes the structure more stable than one-dimensional or two-dimensional. Secondly, the Si/C composite, SiOx composite and alloying treatment can improve the volume expansion effection, increase the rate of lithium-ion deblocking and optimize the electrochemical performance of the material. The composite materials are usually coated with elastic conductive materials on the surface to reduce the stress, increase the conductivity and improve the electrochemical performance. Finally, the future research direction of silicon-based anode materials is prospected.

Three-dimensional reduced graphene oxide (RGO) matrix decorated with nanoflowers of layered MoS2 (denoted as 3D MoS2/RGO) have been synthesized via a facile one-pot stepwise hydrothermal method. Graphene oxide (GO) is used as precursor of RGO and a 3D GO network is formed in the first-step of hydrothermal treatment. At the second stage of hydrothermal treatment, nanoflowers of layered MoS2 form and anchor on the surface of previously formed 3D RGO network. In this preparation, thiourea not only induces the formation of the 3D architecture at a relatively low temperature, but also works as sulfur precursor of MoS2. The synthesized composites have been investigated with XRD, SEM, TEM, Raman spectra, TGA, N2 sorption technique and electrochemical measurements. In comparison with normal MoS2/RGO composites, the 3D MoS2/RGO composite shows improved electrochemical performance as anode material for lithium-ion batteries. A high reversible capacity of 930[Formula: see text]mAh[Formula: see text][Formula: see text][Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text] after 130 cycles under a current density of 200[Formula: see text]mA[Formula: see text][Formula: see text][Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text] as well as good rate capability and superior cyclic stability have been observed. The superior electrochemical performance of the 3D MoS2/RGO composite as anode active material for lithium-ion battery is ascribed to its robust 3D structures, enhanced surface area and the synergistic effect between graphene matrix and the MoS2 nanoflowers subunit.

Abstract The anode and cathode pieces are vital components of lithium-ion batteries. The coating surface density of active material is a significant parameter involved during the fabrication of electrodes and has considerable impact on battery performance. In this paper, anode and cathode pieces are prepared with different surface densities within the allowable range. The anode and cathode pieces are first graded respectively and then matched up according to different surface density ranges. Afterward, the electrodes are assembled with commercial polypropylene separator in 18,650 cell case and infused with electrolyte. The cathode is constituted with a mixture of nickel cobalt manganese (NCM) ternary material and lithium manganese oxide coated on aluminum foil, while the anode is composed of graphite coated on copper foil. The electrochemical performance and safety properties were tested to investigate the influence of the coating surface density of electrodes and optimize the electrochemical performance by regulating the matching surface density of electrodes. The results indicate that larger surface density of both cathode and anode can provide better battery consistency, while smaller surface density can contribute to better specific capacity and smaller capacity loss after cycling. Modest cost and superior properties can be achieved for lithium-ion batteries by reasonably matching the surface density of anodes and cathodes pieces.

Using LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 as a starting material, a surface-modified cathode material was obtained by coating it with a nanolayer of amorphous carbon, where the added C12H22O11 (sugar) was transformed to Li2CO3 compounds after reacting with residual LiOH on the surface. A thin and uniformly smooth nanolayer (35 nm thick) was observed on the surface of the LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2, as confirmed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The amount of residual lithium hydroxide (LiOH) was significantly reduced through the formation of lithium carbonate (Li2CO3). As a result, carbon-coated LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 exhibited noticeable improvement in capacity and rate capability and much lower exothermic heat in the charged state at 4.3V. The improved electrochemical performance and thermal stability are attributed to the carbon coating, which reduced the residual lithium hydroxide, protected the cathode material from reacting with the electrolyte, and slowing the incrassation of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) film on the surfaces of the oxide particles.C12H22O11 + 12O2 → 12CO2 + 11H2OPACS number: 73.20.At

Al-substituted α-Ni(OH)2 was synthesized by a chemical co-precipitation. The as-prepared α-Ni(OH)2 particles were characterized by the means of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The obtained α-Ni(OH)2 particles were well crystallized, spherical shape with the particle sizes of 20-35 nm. The electrochemical performance of β-Ni(OH)2 electrode with addition of nanosized α-Ni(OH)2 was investigated by galvanostatic charge-discharge tests. The nanosized α-Ni(OH)2 as additive in the commercial microsized spherical β-Ni(OH)2 electrode improved the discharge capability. As compared to commercial β-Ni(OH)2 electrode, the electrode with nanosized α-Ni(OH)2 exhibited excellent better charge-discharge cycling stability. It may be a promising positive active material for alkaline secondary batteries.

Lithium-ion battery (LIB) manufacturing optimization is crucial to reduce its CO2 fingerprint and cost, while improving their electrochemical performance. In this article, we present an experimentally validated calendering Discrete Element Method model for LiNi0.33Mn0.33Co0.33O2–based cathodes by considering explicitly both active material (AM) and carbon-binder domain (CBD). This model was coupled to a pre-existing Coarse-Grained Molecular Dynamics model describing the slurry equilibration and its drying and a 4D-resolved Finite Element Method model for predicting electrochemical performance. Our calendering model introduces important novelties versus the state of the art, such as the utilization of un-calendered electrode mesostructures resulting from validated simulations of the slurry and drying combined with the explicit consideration of the spatial distribution and interactions between AM and CBD particles, and its validation with both experimental micro-indentation and porosity vs. calendering pressure curves. The effect of calendering on the electrode mesostructure is analyzed in terms of pore size distribution, tortuosity and particles arrangement. In addition, the evolution of the macroscopic electrochemical behavior of the electrodes upon the degree of calendering is discussed, offering added insights into the links between the calendering pressure, the electrode mesostructure and its overall performance.<br>
