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 …


Electrochemical Performance Of Moo2-C Composite Coatings, Quan-Yi Li, Qi Yang, Yan-Hong Zhao Apr 2018

Electrochemical Performance Of Moo2-C Composite Coatings, Quan-Yi Li, Qi Yang, Yan-Hong Zhao

Journal of Electrochemistry

The molybdenum dioxide-carbon(MoO2-C)composite coatings on the surface of Cu foils were prepared by simple knife coating route and followed by sintering in vacuum. The morphology, composition, structure and electrochemical performance of the MoO2-C composite coatings were investigated. The results demonstrated that the MoO2-C composite coatings consist of MoO2 nano-particles with monoclinic crystal structure and amorphous carbon. Some MoO2 nano-particles with a size range of 5-30nm were loaded on the surface of carbon matrices; while some MoO2 nano-particles with a size of ~5nm were encapsulated inside. The composite coatings showed porous structure …


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 Apr 2018

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, …
