Synthesis And Electrochemical Performance Of Si/C Composite Modified By Pani, Guang-Hui Zhang, Pei-Kang Shen, Ge Sang, Ren-Jin Xiong
Journal of Electrochemistry
Silicon/carbon (Si/C) composite materials were prepared through high-energy ball milling and high-temperature solid-phase method, and then coated with thin polyaniline (PAni) film by oxidation. The microstructure and component of the composites were characterized by SEM, XRD, IR, TG, and the electrochemical performance was investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and galvanostatic charge-discharge tests. The results showed that the surface of PAni/Si/G/C composite was coating with complete lamellar structure of PAni film. Its reversible capacity was 784 mAh.g-1and 690 mAh.g-1 could be maintained after 50th charge-discharge cycles.

Carbon coated tin power was prepared by decomposing glucose applying a hydrothermal method, and was further used as the active material for negative electrode of lithium secondary battery. Charge-discharge tests show that the carbon coated tin electrode with the addition of 5 wt.% acetylene black as a conductive agent could obtain an initial discharge capacity of 967 mAh.g-1 and a discharge capacity of 362 mAh.g-1 after 50 cycles, which is much higher than that of tin electrode (166 mAh.g-1 after 50 cycles). The coated carbon hinders the agglomeration of tin powder, reduces the irreversible capacity loss of …

Journal of Electrochemistry
Spinel Li4Ti5O12 was prepared by hydrothermal method using commercial anatase (TiO2) and lithium hydroxide (LiOH) as raw materials. The effects of the LiOH concentration of lithium hydroxide, hydrothermal reaction time and calcination temperature on the structure and electrochemical performance of Li4Ti5O12 were investigated. The formation process of Li4Ti5O12 was also proposed. The micro-structure and morphology wereas characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM techniques, and the electrochemical performance was analyzed by galvanostatic charge-discharge test. The results show that the pure phase spinel Li4Ti5O12 can be …
