Metal-Oleate Complex-Derived Bimetallic Oxides Nanoparticles Encapsulated in 3D Graphene Networks as Anodes for Efficient Lithium Storage with Pseudocapacitance.

ABSTRACT: In this manuscript, we have demonstrated the delicate design and synthesis of bimetallic oxides nanoparticles derived from metal-oleate complex embedded in 3D graphene networks (MnO/CoMn₂O₄ ⊂ GN), as an anode material for lithium ion batteries. The novel synthesis of the MnO/CoMn₂O₄ ⊂ GN consists of thermal decomposition of metal-oleate complex containing cobalt and manganese metals and oleate ligand, forming bimetallic oxides nanoparticles, followed by a self-assembly route with reduced graphene oxides. The MnO/CoMn₂O₄ ⊂ GN composite, with a unique architecture of bimetallic oxides nanoparticles encapsulated in 3D graphene networks, rationally integrates several benefits including shortening the diffusion path of Li⁺ ions, improving electrical conductivity and mitigating volume variation during cycling. Studies show that the electrochemical reaction processes of MnO/CoMn₂O₄ ⊂ GN electrodes are dominated by the pseudocapacitive behavior, leading to fast Li⁺ charge/discharge reactions. As a result, the MnO/CoMn₂O₄ ⊂ GN manifests high initial specific capacity, stable cycling performance, and excellent rate capability.

Chemically Binding Scaffolded Anodes with 3D Graphene Architectures Realizing Fast and Stable Lithium Storage.

Project description:Three-dimensional (3D) graphene has emerged as an ideal platform to hybridize with electrochemically active materials for improved performances. However, for lithium storage, current anodic guests often exist in the form of nanoparticles, physically attached to graphene hosts, and therefore tend to detach from graphene matrices and aggregate into large congeries, causing considerable capacity fading upon repeated cycling. Herein, we develop a facile double-network hydrogel-enabled methodology for chemically binding anodic scaffolds with 3D graphene architectures. Taking tin-based alloy anodes as an example, the double-network hydrogel, containing interpenetrated cyano-bridged coordination polymer hydrogel and graphene oxide hydrogel, is directly converted to a physical-intertwined and chemical-bonded Sn-Ni alloy scaffold and graphene architecture (Sn-Ni/G) dual framework. The unique dual framework structure, with remarkable structural stability and charge-transport capability, enables the Sn-Ni/G anode to exhibit long-term cyclic life (701 mA h g-1 after 200 cycles at 0.1 A g-1) and high rate performance (497 and 390 mA h g-1 at 1 and 2 A g-1, respectively). This work provides a new perspective towards chemically binding scaffolded low-cost electrode and electrocatalyst materials with 3D graphene architectures for boosting energy storage and conversion.

Conductivity and Pseudocapacitance Optimization of Bimetallic Antimony-Indium Sulfide Anodes for Sodium-Ion Batteries with Favorable Kinetics.

Project description:Metal sulfides show promise for use in alkali-ion batteries because of their high theoretical capacities. However, their poor cycling stability and rate performance hinder their further development. To avoid these issues, In2S3 into Sb2S3 is introduced to improve its electrochemical properties by optimizing its crystal structure and sodium storage mechanism. A heterostructure composed of In2S3 and Sb2S3 shows a unique morphology of formicary microspheres, which provide abundant channels for fast transfer of sodium ions, large surface area for a high pseudocapacitance effect, and enough voids to relieve volume expansion. A sodium-ion battery containing the bimetallic sulfide anode exhibits a high reversible capacity of 400 mA h g-1 and long cycle life of about 1000 cycles. Similarly, a high capacity of ≈610 mA h g-1 is achieved for a lithium-ion battery containing the anode. During sodiation/desodiation, the synergistic effect of In2S3 and Sb2S3 enhances electronic conductivity and supports the host structure, preventing collapse. The cycling performance and rate performance of the In2S3-Sb2S3 anode are further improved by wrapping the electrode with carbon nanotubes. Even at a high current density of 3.2 A g-1, this carbon composite structure still shows a capacity of about 355 mA h g-1.

Lithium Diffusion in Silicon Encapsulated with Graphene.

Project description:The model of a graphene (Gr) sheet putting on a silicon (Si) substrate is used to simulate the structures of Si microparticles wrapped up in a graphene cage, which may be the anode of lithium-ion batteries (LIBS) to improve the high-volume expansion of Si anode materials. The common low-energy defective graphene (d-Gr) structures of DV5-8-5, DV555-777 and SV are studied and compared with perfect graphene (p-Gr). First-principles calculations are performed to confirm the stable structures before and after Li penetrating through the Gr sheet or graphene/Si-substrate (Gr/Si) slab. The climbing image nudged elastic band (CI-NEB) method is performed to evaluate the diffusion barrier and seek the saddle point. The calculation results reveal that the d-Gr greatly reduces the energy barriers for Li diffusion in Gr or Gr/Si. The energy stability, structural configuration, bond length between the atoms and layer distances of these structures are also discussed in detail.

Crumpled graphene-encapsulated sulfur for lithium-sulfur batteries.

Project description:Lithium-sulfur batteries are promising technology in electrical vehicles and large-scale energy storage systems. However, their market penetration is seriously impeded by great challenges such as the low electrical conduction of sulfur and lithium sulfides, and lithium polysulfides' shuttling effect. This work shows that such challenges can be partly resolved by encapsulating sulfur in crumpled reduced graphene oxide (S@crGO), which was synthesized by a facile and scalable one-step in situ method. The strong interaction between sulfur and the graphene host, micro- and meso-pore structures, and rich surface functional groups contribute to the high performance of the S@crGO cathode for lithium-sulfur batteries.

Energy storage: pseudocapacitance in prospect.

Project description:The two main types of charge storage devices - batteries and double layer charging capacitors - can be unambiguously distinguished from one another by the shape and scan rate dependence of their cyclic voltammetric current-potential (CV) responses. This is not the case with "pseudocapacitors" and with the notion of "pseudocapacitance", as originally put forward by Conway et al. After insisting on the necessity of precisely defining "pseudocapacitance" as involving faradaic processes and having, at the same time, a capacitive signature, we discuss the modelling of "pseudocapacitive" responses, revisiting Conway's derivations and analysing critically the other contributions to the subject, leading unmistakably to the conclusion that "pseudocapacitors" are actually true capacitors and that "pseudocapacitance" is a basically incorrect notion. Taking cobalt oxide films as a tutorial example, we describe the way in which a (true) electrical double layer is built upon oxidation of the film in its insulating state up to an ohmic conducting state. The lessons drawn at this occasion are used to re-examine the classical oxides, RuO2, MnO2, TiO2, Nb2O5 and other examples of putative "pseudocapacitive" materials. Addressing the dynamics of charge storage-a key issue in the practice of power of the energy storage device-it is shown that ohmic potential drop in the pores is the governing factor rather than counter-ion diffusion as often asserted, based on incorrect diagnosis by means of scan rate variations in CV studies.

Enhanced Cycle Stability of Crumpled Graphene-Encapsulated Silicon Anodes via Polydopamine Sealing.

Project description:Despite silicon being a promising candidate for next-generation lithium-ion battery anodes, self-pulverization and the formation of an unstable solid electrolyte interface, caused by the large volume expansion during lithiation/delithiation, have slowed its commercialization. In this work, we expand on a controllable approach to wrap silicon nanoparticles in a crumpled graphene shell by sealing this shell with a polydopamine-based coating. This provides improved structural stability to buffer the volume change of Si, as demonstrated by a remarkable cycle life, with anodes exhibiting a capacity of 1038 mA h/g after 200 cycles at 1 A/g. The resulting composite displays a high capacity of 1672 mA h/g at 0.1 A/g and can still retain 58% when the current density increases to 4 A/g. A systematic investigation of the impact of spray-drying parameters on the crumpled graphene morphology and its impact on battery performance is also provided.

Traditional Electrodeposition Preparation of Nonstoichiometric Tin-Based Anodes with Superior Lithium-Ion Storage.

Project description:Herein, nonstoichiometric structured tin-based anodes for lithium-ion batteries were directly prepared by a simple and traditional electrodeposition method. These tin-based anodes show high electrode capacity, excellent rate performance, and superior stable cycling stability, which delivers an outstanding reversible capacity of 728 mAh g-1 at the current density of 100 mA g-1 after 400 cycles. When cycled at the current density of 6 A g-1 for 250 cycles, the capacity of the tin-based anode was kept at about 300 mAh g-1. The tin-based anode with its nonstoichiometric structure can effectively overcome the volume expansion, stabilize the electrode structure, and enhance the cyclic stability through structural reconstruction. By improving the traditional preparation method, the excellent electrochemical anode can be obtained, which may greatly promote the commercial application of alloy mechanism anode materials in lithium-ion batteries.

Robust Electrodes for Flexible Energy Storage Devices Based on Bimetallic Encapsulated Core-Multishell Structures.

Project description:Developing flexible electrodes with high active materials loading and excellent mechanical stability is of importance to flexible electronics, yet remains challenging. Herein, robust flexible electrodes with an encapsulated core-multishell structure are developed via a spraying-hydrothermal process. The multilayer electrode possesses an architecture of substrate/reduced graphene oxide (rGO)/bimetallic complex/rGO/bimetallic complex/rGO from the inside to the outside, where the cellulosic fibers serve as the substrate, namely, the core; and the multiple layers of rGO and bimetallic complex, are used as active materials, namely, the shells. The inner two rGO interlayers function as the cement that chemically bind to two adjacent layers, while the two outer rGO layers encapsulate the inside structure effectively protecting the electrode from materials detachment or electrolyte corrosion. The electrodes with a unique core-multishell structure exhibit excellent cycle stability and exceptional temperature tolerance (-25 to 40 °C) for lithium and sodium storage. A combination of experimental and theoretical investigations are carried out to gain insights into the synergetic effects of cobalt-molybdenum-sulfide (CMS) materials (the bimetallic complex), which will provide guidance for future exploration of bimetallic sulfides. This strategy is further demonstrated in other substrates, showing general applicability and great potential in the development of flexible energy storage devices.

Accommodating lithium into 3D current collectors with a submicron skeleton towards long-life lithium metal anodes.

Project description:Lithium metal is one of the most attractive anode materials for electrochemical energy storage. However, the growth of Li dendrites during electrochemical deposition, which leads to a low Coulombic efficiency and safety concerns, has long hindered the application of rechargeable Li-metal batteries. Here we show that a 3D current collector with a submicron skeleton and high electroactive surface area can significantly improve the electrochemical deposition behaviour of Li. Li anode is accommodated in the 3D structure without uncontrollable Li dendrites. With the growth of Li dendrites being effectively suppressed, the Li anode in the 3D current collector can run for 600 h without short circuit and exhibits low voltage hysteresis. The exceptional electrochemical performance of the Li-metal anode in the 3D current collector highlights the importance of rational design of current collectors and reveals a new avenue for developing Li anodes with a long lifespan.

PVDF-supported graphene foam as a robust current collector for lithium metal anodes.

Project description:Lithium metal batteries have drawn much attention due to their ultrahigh energy density. However, the safety hazards and limited lifetime caused by severe lithium dendrite growth during cycling hinder their real application. To address this issue and improve the electrochemical performance of current lithium batteries, a current collector beyond the traditional copper foil for lithium anodes is highly needed. We proposed and prepared a PVDF-supported graphene foam (PSGF) structure as an effective current collector for lithium metal anodes. Because of its structural stability, large surface area, and lithiophilic surface chemistry, the corresponding lithium metal anode (PSGF@Li) shows an extended cycling life (∼1000 h), a decreased voltage hysteresis (∼80 mV) and an improved coulombic efficiency (∼99%). Furthermore, the practical application of the PSGF@Li anode in a full cell system was also demonstrated.
