A Facile Surface Preservation Strategy for the Lithium Anode for High-Performance Li-O2 Batteries.

ABSTRACT: Protecting an anode from deterioration during charging/discharging has been seen as one of the key strategies in achieving high-performance lithium (Li)-O2 batteries and other Li-metal batteries with a high energy density. Here, we describe a facile approach to prevent the Li anode from dendritic growth and chemical corrosion by constructing a SiO2/GO hybrid thin layer on the surface. The uniform pore-preserving layer can conduct Li ions in the stripping/plating process, leading to an effective alleviation of the dendritic growth of Li by guiding the ion flux through the microstructure. Such a preservation technique significantly enhances the cell performance by enabling the Li-O2 cell to cycle up to 348 times at 1 A·g-1 with a capacity of 1000 mA·h·g-1, which is several times the cycles of cells with pristine Li (58 cycles), Li-GO (166 cycles), and Li-SiO2 (187 cycles). Moreover, the rate performance is improved, and the ultimate capacity of the cell is dramatically increased from 5400 to 25,200 mA·h·g-1. This facile technology is robust and conforms to the Li surface, which demonstrates its potential applications in developing future high-performance and long lifespan Li batteries in a cost-effective fashion.

Methods to Improve Lithium Metal Anode for Li-S Batteries.

Project description:The lithium-sulfur (Li-S) battery has received a lot of attention because it is characterized by high theoretical energy density (2,600 Wh/kg) and low cost. Though many works on the "shuttle effect" of polysulfide have been investigated, lithium metal anode is a more challenging problem, which leads to a short life, low coulombic efficiency, and safety issues related to dendrites. As a result, the amelioration of lithium metal anode is an important means to improve the performance of lithium sulfur battery. In this paper, improvement methods on lithium metal anode for lithium sulfur batteries, including adding electrolyte additives, using solid, and/or gel polymer electrolyte, modifying separators, applying a protective coating, and providing host materials for lithium deposition, are mainly reviewed. In addition, some challenging problems, and further promising directions are also pointed out for future research and development of lithium metal for Li-S batteries.

A facile synthesis of a carbon-encapsulated Fe3O4 nanocomposite and its performance as anode in lithium-ion batteries.

Project description:A carbon-encapsulated Fe3O4 nanocomposite was prepared by a simple one-step pyrolysis of iron pentacarbonyl without using any templates, solvents or surfactants. The structure and morphology of the nanocomposite was investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis and Raman spectroscopy. Fe3O4 nanoparticles are dispersed intimately in a carbon framework. The nanocomposite exhibits well constructed core-shell and nanotube structures, with Fe3O4 cores and graphitic shells/tubes. The as-synthesized material could be used directly as anode in a lithium-ion cell and demonstrated a stable capacity, and good cyclic and rate performances.

Molecular Spring Enabled High-Performance Anode for Lithium Ion Batteries.

Project description:Flexible butyl interconnection segments are synthetically incorporated into an electronically conductive poly(pyrene methacrylate) homopolymer and its copolymer. The insertion of butyl segment makes the pyrene polymer more flexible, and can better accommodate deformation. This new class of flexible and conductive polymers can be used as a polymer binder and adhesive to facilitate the electrochemical performance of a silicon/graphene composite anode material for lithium ion battery application. They act like a "spring" to maintain the electrode mechanical and electrical integrity. High mass loading and high areal capacity, which are critical design requirements of high energy batteries, have been achieved in the electrodes composed of the novel binders and silicon/graphene composite material. A remarkable area capacity of over 5 mAh/cm² and volumetric capacity of over 1700 Ah/L have been reached at a high current rate of 333 mA/g.

CNT@TiO2 nanohybrids for high-performance anode of lithium-ion batteries.

Project description:This work describes a potential anode material for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), namely, anatase TiO2 nanoparticle-decorated carbon nanotubes (CNTs@TiO2). The electrochemical properties of CNTs@TiO2 were thoroughly investigated using various electrochemical techniques, including cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, galvanostatic cycling, and rate experiments. It was revealed that compared with pure TiO2 nanoparticles and CNTs alone, the CNT@TiO2 nanohybrids offered superior rate capability and achieved better cycling performance when used as anodes of LIBs. The CNT@TiO2 nanohybrids exhibited a cycling stability with high reversible capacity of about 190 mAh g-1 after 120 cycles at a current density of 100 mA g-1 and an excellent rate capability (up to 100 mAh g-1 at a current density of 1,000 mA g-1).

Dunaliella Salinas based Sn-carbon anode for high-performance Li-ion batteries.

Project description:Long life, high capacity, environmental friendliness and good rate performance are the most important elements in the research of lithium ion batteries (LIBs). In this paper, Sn-carbon composite electrode materials are prepared using Dunaliella Salinas based carbon (amorphous carbon) as an amorphous carbon precursor combined with tin. Hence, an amorphous carbon template enwrapped by Sn particles forms a core-shell structure (Sn-carbon composite), the annealed Dunaliella Salinas based carbon makes up the carbon core, and Sn particles form the shell of the material. The components of the materials, microstructure and electrochemical properties of LIBs were characterized and tested. The results show that the prepared Sn-carbon composite electrode materials have high purity and combine with amorphous carbon uniformly. The Sn-carbon composite exhibits excellent performance as a LIB anode, its discharge capacities of the 1st, 2nd, and 4th cycles are 1777.39, 944.15 and 722.46 mA h g-1 at a current density of 100 mA g-1, and the capacity is 619.09 mA h g-1 after stable cycling at a current density of 200 mA g-1. The capacity continues to rise at a high current density of 1000 mA g-1 and is 574.97 mA h g-1 at its maximum, demonstrating the excellent performance of the electrode.

A novel graphene-polysulfide anode material for high-performance lithium-ion batteries.

Project description:We report a simple and efficient approach for fabrication of novel graphene-polysulfide (GPS) anode materials, which consists of conducting graphene network and homogeneously distributed polysulfide in between and chemically bonded with graphene sheets. Such unique architecture not only possesses fast electron transport channels, shortens the Li-ion diffusion length but also provides very efficient Li-ion reservoirs. As a consequence, the GPS materials exhibit an ultrahigh reversible capacity, excellent rate capability and superior long-term cycling performance in terms of 1600, 550, 380 mAh g(-1) after 500, 1300, 1900 cycles with a rate of 1, 5 and 10 A g(-1) respectively. This novel and simple strategy is believed to work broadly for other carbon-based materials. Additionally, the competitive cost and low environment impact may promise such materials and technique a promising future for the development of high-performance energy storage devices for diverse applications.

A Heavily Surface-Doped Polymer with the Bifunctional Catalytic Mechanism in Li-O2 Batteries.

Project description:The application of conducting polymers (CPs) in energy storage systems is greatly limited by insufficient reversibility and stability. Here, we successfully incorporated functionalized dopants (Fe(CN)63- [FCN] and PO43- ions) in CPs matrixes to achieve a preferable electrochemical performance. A stable cation inserting/expulsing behavior of surface-doped polycarbazole (PCz) is demonstrated in our work, where doping levels and semiconductor properties of PCz are effectively controlled to adjust their redox properties and stability. With carbon nanotube (CNT) films as the substrate, the CNT/PCz:FCN composite is initially adopted as a free-standing catalytic electrode in Li-O2 cells. The molecule-level dispersed FCN dopants on the surface can work as bifunctional redox mediators on the charge-discharge process. Thus, this composite can not only achieve a low charge plateau of 3.62 V and a regular growth of capacities from 1,800 to 4,800 mAh/gCNT, but also maintain the most of charge voltages under 4.0 V for 150 cycles.

Flake (NH4)6Mo7O24/ Polydopamine as a High Performance Anode for Lithium Ion Batteries.

Project description:Ammonium molybdate tetrahydrate ((NH4)6Mo7O24) (AMT) is commonly used as the precursor to synthesize Mo‑based oxides or sulfides for lithium ion batteries (LIBs). However, the electrochemical lithium storage ability of AMT itself is unclear so far. In the present work, AMT is directly examined as a promising anode material for Li‑ion batteries with good capacity and cycling stability. To further improve the electrochemical performance of AMT, AMT/polydopamine (PDA) composite was simply synthesized via recrystallization and freeze drying methods. Unlike with block shape for AMT, the as‑prepared AMT/PDA composite shows flake morphology. The initial discharge capacity of AMT/PDA is reached up to 1471 mAh g-1. It delivers a reversible discharge capacity of 702 mAh g-1 at a current density of 300 mA g-1, and a stable reversible capacity of 383.6 mA h g-1 is retained at a current density of 0.5 A g-1 after 400 cycles. Moreover, the lithium storage mechanism is fully investigated. The results of this work could potentially expand the application of AMT and Mo‑based anode for LIBs.

Tin Nanoparticles Encapsulated Carbon Nanoboxes as High-Performance Anode for Lithium-Ion Batteries.

Project description:One of the crucial challenges for applying Sn as an anode of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is the dramatic volume change during lithiation/delithiation process, which causes a rapid capacity fading and then deteriorated battery performance. To address this issue, herein, we report the design and fabrication of Sn encapsulated carbon nanoboxes (denoted as Sn@C) with yolk@shell architectures. In this design, the carbon shell can facilitate the good transport kinetics whereas the hollow space between Sn and carbon shell can accommodate the volume variation during repeated charge/discharge process. Accordingly, this composite electrode exhibits a high reversible capacity of 675 mAh g-1 at a current density of 0.8 A g-1 after 500 cycles and preserves as high as 366 mAh g-1 at a higher current density of 3 A g-1 even after 930 cycles. The enhanced electrochemical performance can be ascribed to the crystal size reduction of Sn cores and the formation of polymeric gel-like layer outside the electrode surface after long-term cycles, resulting in improved capacity and enhanced rate performance.
