Electrochemical Characteristics Of Silicon-Based Composites, Xin-Xin Xu, Jun Yang
Journal of Electrochemistry
The nano-porous Si/G/C composite was obtained by two-step ball milling with SiO, Al and graphite, along with HCl acid etching followed by carbon incorparation. This composite demonstrated the reversible capacity of 600 mAh/g with excellent cycling stability, but low initial cycle efficiency is low.A high-temperature treatment after ball-milling of SiO and A1 could promote the complete reduction of SiO. However, the crystalline structure of Al2O3 product changed from γ-phase to α-phase, which it can no longer be etched by HCl. The Si/Al2O3/G/C composite exhibited higher efficiency at the first cycle but relatively poorer …
