Flowerlike Tin Diselenide Hexagonal Nanosheets for High-Performance Lithium-Ion Batteries.

ABSTRACT: SnSe2 nanosheet is a common anode for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), but its severe agglomeration hinders its practical application. Herein, a three-dimensional (3D) SnSe2 nanoflower (F-SnSe2) composed of non-stacking vertical upward hexagonal nanosheets was prepared through a colloidal method as an anode material for LIBs. Benefiting from the advantages of fast reaction-diffusion kinetics and buffering unavoidable volume variation during cycling, the F-SnSe2 electrode displays remarkable specific capacity of 795 mAh g-1 after 100 cycles at 100 mA g-1 and superior rate performance (282 mAh g-1 at 2,000 mA g-1). This work provides an effective way to get non-stacking nanosheets in energy storage field.
