Preparations And Electrochemical Performances Of Carbon Coated Silicon/Graphite Composites, Tian-Yi Gao, Zheng-Liang Gong Jun 2018

Preparations And Electrochemical Performances Of Carbon Coated Silicon/Graphite Composites, Tian-Yi Gao, Zheng-Liang Gong

Journal of Electrochemistry

In this work, the carbon coated silicon (Si@C) composite materials were synthesized based on the industrial silicon powder (600 meshes) via a high energy ball milling combing with in-situ carbon coating (carbonization) method. The Si@C/graphite (Si/C) composite anode materials were prepared by a simple mechanical ball-milling approach. The effects of carbon coating and the ratio of Si to graphite on electrochemical performances of Si/graphite composite materials were investigated systematically. Compared with the nano-Si/graphite composites, the Si/C composites showed higher reversible capacity, better rate capability and cycle performance. The Si@C materials composited of amorphous carbon and crystal silicon with the primary …

Synthesis And Electrochemical Properties Of Li3V2(Bo3)3/C Anode Materials For Lithium-Ion Batteries, You Wang, Yi-Wen Zeng, Xing Zhong, Xing Liu, Quan Tang

Journal of Electrochemistry

The Li3V2(BO3)3/C (LVB/C) composite materials were successfully synthesized in two steps:Firstly, a stoichiomertric mixture of Li2C2O4, V2O5, H3BO3, H2C2O4•H2O and ethanol was thoroughly ball-milled to get the precursors. Secondly, the precursors were post-calcinated to get the ultimate products. The calcination temperatures of 750 ℃, 800 ℃ and 850 ℃ were selected based on TG-DTA analyses. The crystal structures, surface morphologies and carbon contents of the samples calcinated at five conditions, …
