Reduced Graphene Oxide-Wrapped Novel CoIn2S4 Spinel Composite Anode Materials for Li-ion Batteries.

Project description:In this study, we proposed a novel CoIn2S4/reduced graphene oxide (CoIn2S4/rGO) composite anode using a hydrothermal method. By introducing electronic-conductive reduced graphene oxide (rGO) to buffer the extreme volume expansion of CoIn2S4, we prevented its polysulfide dissolution during the lithiation/de-lithiation processes. After 100 cycles, the pristine CoIn2S4 electrode demonstrated poor cycle performance of only 120 mAh/g at a current density of 0.1 A/g. However, the composition-optimized CoIn2S4/rGO composite anode demonstrated a reversible capacity of 580 mAh/g for 100 cycles, which was an improvement of 4.83 times. In addition, the ex situ XRD measurements of the CoIn2S4/rGO electrode were conducted to determine the reaction mechanism and electrochemical behavior. These results suggest that the as-synthesized CoIn2S4/rGO composite anode is a promising anode material for lithium ion batteries.

Sub-micro droplet reactors for green synthesis of Li3VO4 anode materials in lithium ion batteries.

Project description:The conventional solid-state reaction suffers from low diffusivity, high energy consumption, and uncontrolled morphology. These limitations are competed by the presence of water in solution route reaction. Herein, based on concept of combining above methods, we report a facile solid-state reaction conducted in water vapor at low temperature along with calcium doping for modifying lithium vanadate as anode material for lithium-ion batteries. The optimized material, delivers a superior specific capacity of 543.1, 477.1, and 337.2 mAh g-1 after 200 and 1000 cycles at current densities of 100, 1000 and 4000 mA g-1, respectively, which is attributed to the contribution of pseudocapacitance. In this work, we also use experimental and theoretical calculation to demonstrate that the enhancement of doped lithium vanadate is attributed to particles confinement of droplets in water vapor along with the surface and structure variation of calcium doping effect.

Investigating the Electrochemical Performance of MnFe2O4@xC Nanocomposites as Anode Materials for Sodium-Ion Batteries.

Project description:Transition metal oxides (TMOs) are important anode materials in sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) due to their high theoretical capacities, abundant resources, and cost-effectiveness. However, issues such as the low conductivity and large volume variation of TMO bulk materials during the cycling process result in poor electrochemical performance. Nanosizing and compositing with carbon materials are two effective strategies to overcome these issues. In this study, spherical MnFe2O4@xC nanocomposites composed of MnFe2O4 inner cores and tunable carbon shell thicknesses were successfully prepared and utilized as anode materials for SIBs. It was found that the property of the carbon shell plays a crucial role in tuning the electrochemical performance of MnFe2O4@xC nanocomposites and an appropriate carbon shell thickness (content) leads to the optimal battery performance. Thus, compared to MnFe2O4@1C and MnFe2O4@8C, MnFe2O4@4C nanocomposite exhibits optimal electrochemical performance by releasing a reversible specific capacity of around 308 mAh·g-1 at 0.1 A·g-1 with 93% capacity retention after 100 cycles, 250 mAh·g-1 at 1.0 A g-1 with 73% capacity retention after 300 cycles in a half cell, and around 111 mAh·g-1 at 1.0 C when coupled with a Na3V2(PO4)3 (NVP) cathode in a full SIB cell.

Enhanced photocatalytic crystal-violet degradation performances of sonochemically-synthesized AC-CeO2 nanocomposites.

Project description:Semiconductor-based photocatalysis is one of the favorable techniques for the wastewater treatment. Herein, we synthesized the activated carbon-decorated cerium dioxide (AC-CeO2) nanocomposites via the facile ultrasonication method by using the biomass-derived AC nanoflakes and the sonochemically-synthesized CeO2 nanoparticles. The AC-CeO2 nanocomposites exhibited the aggregated morphology with the AC nanoflakes-anchored CeO2 nanoparticles. Since the hybridization of conductive AC and semiconductive CeO2 would lead to the increased photocarrier transport and the reduced photocarrier recombination, during the photocatalytic reaction, the AC-CeO2 nanocomposites showed the enhanced crystal violet dye-degradation efficiency up to 97.9 % within 135 min. The results suggest that the AC-CeO2 nanocomposites hold promise as a prominent photocatalyst for future green environmental technology.

Reutilization of Silicon-Cutting Waste via Constructing Multilayer Si@SiO2@C Composites as Anode Materials for Li-Ion Batteries.

Project description:The rapid development of the photovoltaic industry has also brought some economic losses and environmental problems due to the waste generated during silicon ingot cutting. This study introduces an effective and facile method to reutilize silicon-cutting waste by constructing a multilayer Si@SiO2@C composite for Li-ion batteries via two-step annealing. The double-layer structure of the resultant composite alleviates the severe volume changes of silicon effectively, and the surrounding slightly graphitic carbon, known for its high conductivity and mechanical strength, tightly envelops the silicon nanoflakes, facilitates ion and electron transport and maintains electrode structural integrity throughout repeated charge/discharge cycles. With an optimization of the carbon content, the initial coulombic efficiency (ICE) was improved from 53% to 84%. The refined Si@SiO2@C anode exhibits outstanding cycling stability (711.4 mAh g-1 after 500 cycles) and rate performance (973.5 mAh g-1 at 2 C). This research presents a direct and cost-efficient strategy for transforming photovoltaic silicon-cutting waste into high-energy-density lithium-ion battery (LIB) anode materials.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are well suited precursors for obtaining such templated carbon matrices. Usually these conversions are carried out by energy intensive processes and lead to the presence of toxic transition metal residues. Herein, we demonstrate the green, scalable, microwave-assisted synthesis of a three-dimensional s-block metal based MOF and its efficient transformation into a carbonaceous material. The MOF-derived solid functions as a negative electrode for lithium-ion batteries having moderate low-rate capacities and cycling stability.

Project description:Ramsdellite-type lithium titanate (Li₂Ti₃O₇) powders were synthesized by performing ultrasonic spray pyrolysis, and their chemical and physical properties were characterized by performing Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), powder X-ray Diffraction (XRD), and Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) analyses. The as-prepared Li₂Ti₃O₇ precursor powders had spherical morphologies with hollow microstructures, but an irregularly shaped morphology was obtained after calcination above 900 °C. The ramsdellite Li₂Ti₃O₇ crystal phase was obtained after the calcination at 1100 °C under an argon/hydrogen atmosphere. The first rechargeable capacity of the Li₂Ti₃O₇ anode material was 168 mAh/g at 0.1 C and 82 mAh/g at 20 C, and the discharge capacity retention ratio was 99% at 1 C after the 500th cycle. The cycle performance of the Li₂Ti₃O₇ anode was also highly stable at 50 °C, demonstrating the superiority of Li₂Ti₃O₇ anode materials reported previously.

Metal Oxide Wrapped by Reduced Graphene Oxide Nanocomposites as Anode Materials for Lithium-Ion Batteries.

Project description:The reduced graphene oxide/iron oxide (rGO/Fe2O3) and reduced graphene oxide/cobalt oxide (rGO/Co3O4) composite anodes have been successfully prepared through a simple and scalable ball-milling synthesis. The substantial interaction of Fe2O3 and Co3O4 with the rGO matrix strengthens the electronic conductivity and limits the volume variation during cycling in the rGO/Fe2O3 and rGO/Co3O4 composites because reduced graphene oxide (rGO) helps the metal oxides (MOs) to attain a more efficient diffusion of Li-ions and leads to high specific capacities. As anode materials for LIBs, the rGO/Fe2O3 and rGO/Co3O4 composites demonstrate overall superb electrochemical properties, especially rGO/Fe2O3T-5 and rGO/Co3O4T-5, showcasing higher reversible capacities of 1021 and 773 mAhg-1 after 100 cycles at 100 mAg-1, accompanied by the significant rate performance. Because of their superior electrochemical efficiency, high capacity and low cost, the rGO/Fe2O3 and rGO/Co3O4 composites made by ball milling could be outstanding anode materials for LIBs. Due to the excellent electrochemical performance, the rGO/Fe2O3 and rGO/Co3O4 composites prepared via ball milling could be promising anode materials with a high capacity and low cost for LIBs. The findings may provide shed some light on how other metal oxides wrapped by rGO can be prepared for future applications.

Project description:In recent years, organic materials have been increasingly studied as anode materials in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due to their remarkable advantages, including abundant raw materials, low prices, diverse structures, and high theoretical capacity. In this paper, three types of aromatic Schiff-base polymer materials have been synthesized and examined as anode materials in LIBs. Among them, the polymer [C6H4N = CHC6H4CH=N]n (TTD-PDA) has a continuous conjugated backbone (label as conjugated polymer), while polymers [(CH2)2N=CHC6H4CH=N]n (TTD-EDA) and [C6H4N=CH(CH2)3CH=N]n (GA-PDA) have discontinuous conjugated back-bones (label as nonconjugated polymer). The organic anodes based on TTD-PDA, TTD-EDA, and GA-PDA for LIBs are discovered to represent high reversible specific capacities of 651, 492, and 416 mAh g-1 at a current density of 100 mA g-1 as well as satisfactory rate capabilities with high capacities of 210, 90, and 178 mAh g-1 and 105, 57, and 122 mAh g-1 at current densities of 2 and 10 A g-1, indicating that these Schiff-base polymers are all promising anode materials for LIBs, which broadens the design of organic anode materials with high specific capacity, superior rate performance, and stable cycling stability.
