Abstract
Energy storage systems, particularly rechargeable batteries, play a crucial role in establishing a sustainable energy infrastructure. Today, researchers focus on improving battery energy density, cycling stability, and rate performance. This involves enhancing existing materials or creating new ones with advanced properties for cathodes and anodes to achieve peak battery performance. Graphene aerogels (GAs) possess extraordinary attributes, including a hierarchical porous and lightweight structure, high electrical conductivity, and robust mechanical stability. These qualities facilitate the uniform distribution of active sites within electrodes, mitigate volume changes during repeated cycling, and enhance overall conductivity. When integrated into batteries, GAs expedite electron/ion transport, offer exceptional structural stability, and deliver outstanding cycling performance. This review offers a comprehensive survey of the advancements in the preparation, functionalization, and modification of GAs in the context of battery research. It explores their application as electrodes and hosts for the dispersion of active material nanoparticles, resulting in the creation of hybrid electrodes for a wide range of rechargeable batteries including lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), Li-metal-air batteries, sodium-ion batteries (SIBs), zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) and zinc-air batteries (ZABs), aluminum-ion batteries (AIBs) and aluminum-air batteries and other.

Abstract
In this work, carbon-coated bimetallic tin-nickel selenide heterostructures loaded on reduced graphene oxide composites were prepared through a metal-organic framework-assisted strategy. The carbon coating mitigates the volume expansion and maintains the structural stability, while the introduction of reduced graphene oxide and heterojunction enhances electrical conductivity and reaction kinetics, thereby together contributing to the enhanced lithium-ion storage performance. As expected, the optimal material delivers excellent lithium-ion storage performance in terms of a high reversible capacity of 1033.4 mAh g-1 at 0.2 A g-1, outstanding rate capability, and long-term cyclability with the capacity of 726.2 mAh g-1 after 500 cycles at 1.0 A g-1 and 452.4 mAh g-1 after 1000 cycles at 2.0 A g-1. Furthermore, the electrochemical reaction mechanism of the composite is analyzed.

MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 17:3819. [PMID: 39124484 PMCID: PMC11312968 DOI: 10.3390/ma17153819] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2024] [Revised: 07/17/2024] [Accepted: 07/31/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024]
Abstract
A new two-dimensional (2D) non-MXene transition metal carbide, Mo3C2, was found using the USPEX code. Comprehensive first-principles calculations show that the Mo3C2 monolayer exhibits thermal, dynamic, and mechanical stability, which can ensure excellent durability in practical applications. The optimized structures of Lix@(3×3)-Mo3C2 (x = 1-36) and Nax@(3×3)-Mo3C2 (x = 1-32) were identified as prospective anode materials. The metallic Mo3C2 sheet exhibits low diffusion barriers of 0.190 eV for Li and 0.118 eV for Na and low average open circuit voltages of 0.31-0.55 V for Li and 0.18-0.48 V for Na. When adsorbing two layers of adatoms, the theoretical energy capacities are 344 and 306 mA h g-1 for Li and Na, respectively, which are comparable to that of commercial graphite. Moreover, the Mo3C2 substrate can maintain structural integrity during the lithiation or sodiation process at high temperature. Considering these features, our proposed Mo3C2 slab is a potential candidate as an anode material for future Li- and Na-ion batteries.

Abstract
Semi-solid lithium-ion batteries (SSLIBs) based on "slurry-like" electrodes hold great promise to enable low-cost and sustainable energy storage. However, the development of the SSLIBs has long been hindered by the lack of high-performance anodes. Here the origin of low initial Coulombic efficiency (iCE, typically <60%) is elucidated in the graphite-based semi-solid anodes (in the non-flowing mode) and develop rational strategies to minimize the irreversible capacity loss. It is discovered that Ketjen black (KB), a nanoscale conductive additive widely used in SSLIB research, induces severe electrolyte decomposition during battery charge due to its large surface area and abundant surface defects. High iCEs up to 92% are achieved for the semi-solid graphite anodes by replacing KB with other low surface-area, low-defect conductive additives. A semi-solid full battery (LiFePO4 vs graphite, in the non-flowing mode) is further demonstrated with stable cycle performance over 100 cycles at a large areal capacity of 6 mAh cm-2 and a pouch-type semi-solid full cell that remains functional even when it is mechanically abused. This work demystifies the SSLIBs and provides useful physical insights to further improve their performance and durability.

ADVANCED SCIENCE (WEINHEIM, BADEN-WURTTEMBERG, GERMANY) 2024:e2403530. [PMID: 38975809 DOI: 10.1002/advs.202403530] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2024] [Revised: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 07/09/2024]
Abstract
High Li-storage-capacity particles such as alloying-based anodes (Si, Sn, Ge, etc.) are core components for next-generation Li-ion batteries (LIBs) but are crippled by their intrinsic volume expansion issues. While pore pre-plantation represents a mainstream solution, seldom do this strategy fully satisfy the requirements in practical LIBs. One prominent issue is that porous particles reduce electrode density and negate volumetric performance (Wh L-1) despite aggressive electrode densification strategies. Moreover, the additional liquid electrolyte dosage resulting from porosity increase is rarely noticed, which has a significant negative impact on cell gravimetric energy density (Wh kg-1). Here, the concept of judicious porosity control is introduced to recalibrate existing particle design principles in order to concurrently boost gravimetric and volumetric performance, while also maintaining the battery's cycle life. The critical is emphasized but often neglected role that intraparticle pores play in dictating battery performance, and also highlight the superiority of closed pores over the open pores that are more commonly referred to in the literature. While the analysis and case studies focus on silicon-carbon composites, the overall conclusions apply to the broad class of alloying anode chemistries.

Abstract
Electrode stability can be controlled to a large extent by constructing suitable composite structures, in which the heterojunction structure can affect the transport of electrons and ions through the effect of the interface state, changed band gap width, and the electric field at the interface. As a promising electrode material, the Ga-based material has a conversion between solid and liquid phases in the electrochemical reaction process, which endows it with self-healing properties with the structure and morphology. Based on these, the Ga2O3/MnCO3 composite was successfully synthesized with a heterogeneous structure by introducing a Ga source in the hydrothermal process. Benefitting from the acceleration effect of the internal electric field and the narrower band gap at the interface, a high-capacity Ga2O3/MnCO3 composite electrode (1112 mAh·g-1 after 225 cycles at 0.1 A·g-1 and 457.1 mAh·g-1 after 400 cycles at 1 A·g-1) can be achieved for lithium-ion batteries. The results can provide a reference for the research and preparation of electrode materials with high performance.

Abstract
Graphite is a revolutionary material, and the development of synthetic graphite could potentially solve the shortage of natural graphite in the future. In this paper, the formation of core-shell-structured synthetic graphite prepared from an anthracite-FeO mixture was systematically investigated by a two-step method. First, heat treatment was performed on a layer of almandine (3FeO·Al2O3·3SiO2) particles to obtain a large quantity of uniform-sized glass-phase spheroids. Second, the deashed anthracite was graphitized on the surface of the obtained spheroids to prepare core-shell-structured graphite. Furthermore, the obtained graphite products were systematically characterized by XRD, Raman spectroscopy, SEM-EDS, and TEM. Finally, a model was proposed to illustrate the formation mechanism of the core-shell structure during graphitization of the anthracite-almandine mixture. Under lower temperatures, almandine started to melt into spheroids. Under higher temperatures, the volatile components in the anthracite turned into the gas phase, and the carbon matrix started to bend on the surface of the core material and deposit layer by layer, thus forming the core-shell-structured graphite. The findings could provide theoretical guidance for the synthetic graphite industry and have meaningful implications for the coal chemistry field.

Abstract
Organics are gaining significance as electrode materials due to their merits of multi-electron reaction sites, flexible rearrangeable structures and redox reversibility. However, organics encounter finite electronic conductivity and inferior durability especially in organic electrolytes. To circumvent above barriers, we propose a novel design strategy, constructing conductive network structures with extended π-π superposition effect by manipulating intermolecular interaction. Tetralithium 1,4,5,8-naphthalenetetracarboxylate (LNTC) interwoven by carbon nanotubes (CNTs) forms LNTC@CNTs composite firstly for Li-ion storage, where multiple conjugated carboxyls contribute sufficient Li-ion storage sites, the unique network feature enables electrolyte and charge mobility conveniently combining electron delocalization in π-conjugated system, and the enhanced π-π superposition effect between LNTC and CNTs endows laudable structural robustness. Accordingly, LNTC@CNTs maintain an excellent Li-ion storage capacity retention of 96.4 % after 400 cycles. Electrochemical experiments and theoretical simulations elucidate the fast reaction kinetics and reversible Li-ion storage stability owing to the electron delocalization and π-π superposition effect, while conjugated carboxyls are reversibly rearranged into enolates during charging/discharging. Consequently, a dual-ion battery combining this composite anode and expanded graphite cathode exhibits a peak specific capacity of 122 mAh g-1 and long cycling life with a capacity retention of 84.2 % after 900 cycles.

Abstract
Metal-Organic Polymers (MOPs) have attracted growing attention for lithium-ion battery (LIB) applications due to their merits in orderly ionic transportation and robust structure stability in electrochemical reactions. However, they suffer from poor electronic conductivity. In this work, we apply first-principles density functional theory to explore the potential of three one-dimensional (1D) electrically conductive C6H2S4TM (TM = Fe, Co, and Ni) MOPs with the π-d conjugated coordination as anode materials for Li+ ions storage. Our theoretical results reveal that these 1D MOPs possess a superior theoretical capacity of over 748 mA h g-1. In particular, the 1D C6H2S4Ni MOP shows an exceptional theoretical specific capacity of 1110 mA h g-1 based on the three-electron transferring reaction, which significantly outperforms the traditional graphite-based anode material in LIBs. Moreover, the resonant charge transfer between Ni metal and ligand within the 1D C6H2S4Ni MOP reduces the diffusion energy barrier of the Li atoms when they migrate on the surface of the MOP. The ultrahigh theoretical specific capacity of the C6H2S4Ni MOP predicts that it can be a promising anode material for LIBs.

Abstract
Magnetic hyperthermia therapy (MHT) has garnered immense interest due to its exceptional spatiotemporal specificity, minimal invasiveness and remarkable tissue penetration depth. Nevertheless, the limited magnetothermal heating capability and the potential toxicity of metal ions in magnetic materials based on metallic elements significantly impede the advancement of MHT. Herein, we introduce the concept of nonmetallic materials, with graphite (Gra) as a proof of concept, as a highly efficient and biocompatible option for MHT of tumors in vivo for the first time. The Gra exhibits outstanding magnetothermal heating efficacy owing to the robust eddy thermal effect driven by its excellent electrical conductivity. Furthermore, being composed of carbon, Gra offers superior biocompatibility as carbon is an essential element for all living organisms. Additionally, the Gra boasts customizable shapes and sizes, low cost, and large-scale production capability, facilitating reproducible and straightforward manufacturing of various Gra implants. In a mouse tumor model, Gra-based MHT successfully eliminates the tumors at an extremely low magnetic field intensity, which is less than one-third of the established biosafety threshold. This study paves the way for the development of high-performance magnetocaloric materials by utilizing nonmetallic materials in place of metallic ones burdened with inherent limitations.

[PMID: 38322955 PMCID: PMC10844573 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e25426] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2023] [Revised: 01/12/2024] [Accepted: 01/26/2024] [Indexed: 02/08/2024] Open
Abstract
Si-based anode materials have a relatively high theoretical specific capacity and low operating voltage, greatly enhancing the energy density of rechargeable lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, their practical application is seriously hindered by the instability of active particles and anode electrodes caused by the huge swelling during cycling. How to maintain the stability of the charge transfer network and interface structure of Si particles is full of challenges. To address this issue, we have developed a novel Si@Fe3O4/AC/CNR anode by in-situ growing one-dimensional high elastic carbon nano-ribbons to wrap Si nanoparticles. This special structure can construct fast channels of electron transport and lithium ion diffusion, and stabilize the surface structure of Si nanoparticles during cycling. With these promising architectural features, the Si@Fe3O4/AC/CNR composite possesses a high specific capacity of 1279.4 mAh/g at 0.5 A/g, and a superior cycling life with 80 % capacity retention after 700 cycles. Even at a high current density of 20.0 A/g, the composite still delivers a capacity of 621.2 mAh/g. The facile synthetic approach and high performance of Si@Fe3O4/AC/CNR anodes provide practical insight into advanced anode materials with large volume expansion for high-energy-density LIBs.

Abstract
Silicon-based materials have been considered potential anode materials for next-generation lithium-ion batteries based on their high theoretical capacity and low working voltage. However, side reactions at the Si/electrolyte interface bring annoying issues like low Coulombic efficiency, sluggish ionic transport, and inferior temperature compatibility. In this work, the surface Al2 O3 coating layer is proposed as an artificial solid electrolyte interphase (SEI), which can serve as a physical barrier against the invasion of byproducts like HF(Hydrogen Fluoride) from the decomposition of electrolyte, and acts as a fast Li-ion transport pathway. Besides, the intrinsically high mechanical strength can effectively inhibit the volume expansion of the silicon particles, thus promoting the cyclability. The as-assembled battery cell with the Al2 O3 -coated Si-C anode exhibits a high initial Coulombic efficiency of 80% at RT and a capacity retention ratio up to ≈81.9% after 100 cycles, which is much higher than that of the pristine Si-C anode (≈74.8%). Besides, the expansion rate can also be decreased from 103% to 50%. Moreover, the Al2 O3 -coated Si-C anode also extends the working temperature from room temperature to 0 °C-60 °C. Overall, this work provides an efficient strategy for regulating the interface reactions of Si-based anode and pushes forward the practical applications at real conditions.

SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2024; 20:e2305639.

Abstract
Prelithiation is an essential technology to compensate for the initial lithium loss of lithium-ion batteries due to the formation of solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) and irreversible structure change. However, the prelithiated materials/electrodes become more reactive with air and electrolyte resulting in unwanted side reactions and contaminations, which makes it difficult for the practical application of prelithiation technology. To address this problem, herein, interphase engineering through a simple solution treatment after chemical prelithiation is proposed to protect the prelithiated electrode. The used solutions are carefully selected, and the composition and nanostructure of the as-formed artificial SEIs are revealed by cryogenic electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The electrochemical evaluation demonstrates the unique merits of this artificial SEI, especially for the fluorinated interphase, which not only enhances the interfacial ion transport but also increases the tolerance of the prelithiated electrode to the air. The treated graphite electrode shows an initial Coulombic efficiency of 129.4%, a high capacity of 170 mAh g-1 at 3 C, and negligible capacity decay after 200 cycles at 1 C. These findings not only provide a facile, universal, and controllable method to construct an artificial SEI but also enlighten the upgrade of battery fabrication and the alternative use of advanced electrolytes.

Abstract
Rechargeable batteries are widely used as power sources for portable electronics, electric vehicles and smart grids. Their practical performances are, however, largely undermined under extreme conditions, such as in high-altitude drones, ocean exploration and polar expedition. These extreme environmental conditions not only bring new challenges for batteries but also incur unique battery failure mechanisms. To fill in the gap, it is of great importance to understand the battery failure mechanisms under different extreme conditions and figure out the key parameters that limit battery performances. In this review, the authors start by investigating the key challenges from the viewpoints of ionic/charge transfer, material/interface evolution and electrolyte degradation under different extreme conditions. This is followed by different engineering approaches through electrode materials design, electrolyte modification and battery component optimization to enhance practical battery performances. Finally, a short perspective is provided about the future development of rechargeable batteries under extreme conditions.

Abstract
Microcrystalline graphite (MG), as a kind of natural graphite (NG), holds great potential for use as an anode material for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due to low raw material cost, good electrolyte compatibility, and relatively long cycle life. Nevertheless, the relatively low reversible capacity and poor initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE) of the MG anode largely limit its practical application in LIBs. In order to improve the lithium storage capacity of MG, three kinds of oxidant intercalators are applied to treat the original MG, and the as-obtained MG is further modified by a thin carbon layer. The results indicate that using H2SO4-C2H2O4 as oxidant intercalators and subsequent carbon coating layer modification are the optimum techniques, and they can increase the interlayer distance, introduce defects to decrease the volume expansion, and generate channels for fast Li+ diffusion. Meanwhile, the carbon coating layer can reduce the specific surface area of graphite and greatly improve the ICE and cycling performance. Especially, the OEMGC-2 anodes prepared by the dual modification strategies represent a high reversible capacity of 349.4 mA h g-1 at 0.2C with a satisfactory ICE of 90.2%, indicating that the MG can also be considered as a high performance and low-cost anode material of LIBs.

Abstract
Downsizing the electrochemically active materials in both cathodic and anodic electrodes commonly brings about enhanced lithium-ion storage performances. It is particularly meaningful to explore simplified and effective strategies for exploiting nanosized electrode materials in the advanced lithium-ion batteries. In this work, the spontaneous reaction between few-layered graphene oxide (GO) and metallic cobalt (Co) foils in mild hydrothermal condition is for the first time employed to synthesize a reduced graphene oxide (RGO) supported nanosized cobalt monoxide (CoO) anode material (CoO@RGO). Furthermore, the CoO@RGO sample is converted to nanosized lithium cobalt oxide cathode material (LiCoO2, LCO) by taking the advantages of the self-templated effect. As a result, both the CoO@RGO anode and the LCO cathode exhibit inspiring lithium-ion storage properties. In half-cells, the CoO@RGO sample maintains a reversible capacity of 740.6 mAh·g-1 after 300 cycles at the current density of 1000 mA·g-1 while the LCO sample delivers a reversible capacity of 109.1 mAh·g-1 after 100 cycles at the current density of 100 mA·g-1. In the CoO@RGO//LCO full-cells, the CoO@RGO sample delivers a reversible capacity of 553.9 mAh·g-1 after 50 cycles at the current density of 200 mA·g-1. The reasons for superior electrochemical behaviors of the samples have been revealed, and the strategy in this work can be considered to be straightforward and effective for engineering both anode and cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries.

Abstract
Spent carbon cathode (SCC) is a hazardous waste from the aluminum electrolysis industry. It is commonly used as a carbon source in the current disposal and recovery strategies, such as combustion, or as a reductant for smelting. The novelty of this study is to propose a strategy for recycling SCC as a graphite resource and to investigate the unique structural characteristics and adsorption properties of graphene oxide produced from this low temperature graphitized carbon. The adsorption kinetics and isotherms of SCC-GO on methylene blue (MB) were studied and compared with the GO prepared from natural flake graphite (NFG) and artificial graphite (AG). The results show that SCC-GO exhibits the highest adsorption rate and adsorption capacity (647.83 mg/g) for MB, which is much higher than NFG-GO (451.22 mg/g) and AG-GO (533.12 mg/g). The analysis of the spectroscopy and morphology confirmed that SCC-GO has a high degree of crystal defects, oxidation, and surface wrinkle. Overall, this study reveals the unique structure of SCC-GO and highlights its significant scientific and application potential as an ultra-low temperature graphitized carbon. This research is also significant for recycling aluminum electrolytic cathode solid waste in the form of a graphite source.

Abstract
Solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) is regarded as a key factor to enable high power outputs of Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Herein, we demonstrate a modified electrolyte consisting of a novel electrolyte additive, 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyltrimethoxysilane (FTMS) to construct a highly robust and stable SEI on a graphite anode for LIBs to enhance its rate performance. With 2% FTMS, the anode presents an improved capacity retention from 77.6 to 91.2% at 0.5 C after 100 cycles and an improved capacity from 86 to 229 mAh g-1 at 2 C. Experimental characterizations and theoretical calculations reveal that FTMS is preferentially absorbed and reduced on graphite to construct an interface chemistry with uniform fluoride-containing organic lithium salt and silicon-containing polymer, which exhibits high flexibility and conductivity and endows the SEI with high robustness and stability. This work provides an effective way to address the issue of slow lithium insertion/desertion kinetics of graphite anodes.

Abstract
Lithium metal batteries (LMBs) are expected to upgrade their energy density to meet the growing battery market demand; however, intractable lithium dendrites and prominent electrode-electrolyte interface problems have been the stumbling block to their practical applications. Electrolytes play a crucial role in LMBs and are directly involved in the establishment of the electrode-electrolyte interface. In particular, low-concentration electrolytes (LCEs) can significantly save electrolyte costs, but the interface issue is more noteworthy. Here, multifunctional acetamide (N-methyl-N-(trimethylsilyl)-trifluoroacetamide, MTA) and lithium nitrate (LiNO3) additives were introduced together to enhance the performance of LMBs in LCEs. The MTA additive effectively removes the trace water and corrosive HF from the electrolyte, thus suppressing lithium salt decomposition and enhancing the stability of LCEs. Moreover, the MTA additive can construct an inorganic-rich interphase layer on the cathode/anode surface to protect the electrode. Especially, MTA can cooperate with LiNO3 additive to suppress lithium dendrites and reduce interfacial impedance, thus effectively enhancing lithium metal anode stability. Benefiting from the introduction of MTA and LiNO3 additives in the LCEs, the Li||NMC811 metal battery still has a capacity of 110 mA h g-1 after 500 cycles at room temperature, while the reference batteries have failed. The rate capacity and high temperature (50 °C) performance of the Li||NCM811 batteries have also been significantly improved. Significantly, this research explores a cost-effective method of using multifunctional additives to enhance LMBs' stability in LCEs.

Abstract
Potassium-ion batteries (KIBs) have recently attracted considerable attention owing to their resource abundance, low cost and environmental friendliness. Graphite as a mature commercial anode material for lithium-ion batteries, has been proved as a promising anode candidate for KIBs by reversible forming potassium-graphite intercalation compounds. However, large volume expansion and sluggish K+ kinetics caused by the incompatibility between large radius of K+ and the small interlayer spacing of graphite, result in the poor cycle stability and rate performances, hindering its practical application. Extensive research efforts have focused on improving the potassium storage performance of graphite anodes. This review provides an overview of recent advances in addressing these challenges and optimizing the electrochemical performance of graphite anodes for KIBs. Various strategies to improve the electrochemical performance of graphite and graphitic carbon anodes, such as microcrystalline regulation, heteroatom doping, morphological adjustment, and coating modification, are discussed, while the critical issues and challenges associated with graphite anodes and the prospects for their advancement in KIBs are highlighted. The review offers valuable guidelines for rational structural design and promotes the commercial development of high-performance graphite anode materials for KIBs.

Abstract
Metal hydrides have been demonstrated as one of the promising high-capacity anode materials for Li-ion batteries. Herein, we report the electrochemical properties and lithium storage mechanism of a Li-rich complex metal hydride (Li3AlH6). Li3AlH6 exhibits a lithiation capacity of ∼1729 mAh/g with a plateau potential of ∼0.33 V vs. Li+/Li at the first discharge cycle. Experimental results demonstrate that Li3AlH6 is converted into LiH and LiAl in the initial electrochemical lithiation process. In addition, Li3AlH6 also possesses a good cycling stability that 71 % of the second discharge capacity is retained after 20 cycles. More importantly, the cycling performance of Li3AlH6 can be improved to 100 cycles via adjusting electrolyte composition. This study provides a new approach for developing the lithium storage properties of anode materials for Li-ion batteries.

Abstract
We investigate the reassembly techniques for utilizing fine graphite particles, smaller than 5 µm, as high-efficiency, high-rate anode materials for lithium-ion batteries. Fine graphite particles of two sizes (0.4-1.2 µm and 5 µm) are utilized, and the mixing ratio of the two particles is varied to control the porosity of the assembled graphite. The packing characteristics of the assembled graphite change based on the mixing ratio of the two types of fine graphite particles, forming assembled graphite with varying porosities. The open porosity of the manufactured assembled graphite samples ranges from 0.94% to 3.55%, while the closed porosity ranges from 21.41% to 26.51%. All the assembled graphite shows improved electrochemical characteristics properties compared with anodes composed solely of fine graphite particles without granulation. The sample assembled by mixing 1.2 µm and 5 µm graphite at a 60:40 ratio exhibits the lowest total porosity (27.45%). Moreover, it exhibits a 92.3% initial Coulombic efficiency (a 4.7% improvement over fine graphite particles) and a capacity of 163.4 mAh/g at a 5C-rate (a 1.9-fold improvement over fine graphite particles).

[PMID: 37884441 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202314509] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2023] [Revised: 10/20/2023] [Accepted: 10/23/2023] [Indexed: 10/28/2023]
Abstract
The pulverization of alloying anodes significantly restricts their use in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). This study presents a dual-phase solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) design that incorporates finely dispersed Al nanoparticles within the LiPON matrix. This distinctive dual-phase structure imparts high stiffness and toughness to the integrated SEI film. In comparison to single-phase LiPON film, the optimized Al/LiPON dual-phase SEI film demonstrates a remarkable increase in fracture toughness by 317.8 %, while maintaining stiffness, achieved through the substantial dissipation of strain energy. Application of the dual-phase SEI film on an Al anode leads to a 450 % enhancement in cycling stability for lithium storage in dual-ion batteries. A similar enhancement in cycling stability for silicon anodes, which face severe volume expansion issues, is also observed, demonstrating the broad applicability of the dual-phase SEI design. Specifically, homogeneous Li-Al alloying has been observed in conventional LIBs, even when paired with a high mass loading LiNi0.5 Co0.3 Mn0.2 O2 cathode (7 mg cm-2 ). The dual-phase SEI film design can also accelerate the diffusion kinetics of Li-ions through interface electronic structure regulation. This dual-phase design can integrate stiffness and toughness into a single SEI film, providing a pathway to enhance both the structural stability and rate capability of alloying anodes.

Abstract
LiVO3 as a prospective anode for lithium-ion batteries has drawn considerable focus based on its superior ion transfer capability and relatively elevated specific capacity. Nevertheless, the inherent low electrical conductivity and sluggish reaction kinetics hindered its commercial application. Herein, C-doped LiVO3 honeycombs (C-doped LiVO3 HCs) are designed via introducing low-cost and scalable biomass carbon as a template, and the influence of the structure on the lithium storage property is systematically studied. The prepared C-doped LiVO3 HC electrode delivers a high reversible capacity of 743.7 mA h g-1 at 0.5 A g-1 after 400 cycles and superior high-rate performance with an average discharge capacity of 420.8 mA h g-1 even at 5.0 A g-1. The remarkable comprehensive electrochemical performance is attributed to the high electrical conductivity caused by carbon doping and rapid ion transport triggered by the honeycomb structure. This work may offer a rational design on both the hierarchical structure and doping engineering of future battery electrodes.

Abstract
Graphitic carbon-based anodes for lithium-ion batteries have seen remarkable development and commercial acceptance during the past three decades. Still, the performance of these materials is limited due to the low surface area, stacking of layers, poor porosity, and meager conductivity. To overcome these limitations, we propose using polystyrene as a core and small-sized zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) particles as decorators to develop a highly porous three-dimensional graphitic carbon material. The developed material is optimized with the carbonization temperature for the best anodic performance of LIBs. The pyridinic nitrogen content in the material carbonized at 700 °C makes it high performing and more stable than the samples treated at 600, 800, and 900 °C. The packed coin cell exhibited an initial discharge capacity of 775 mA h g-1 at a current density of 50 mA g-1, which increases to 806 mA h g-1 after testing the material at different current densities for 55 cycles. The packed half-cell exhibited a highly stable performance of about 96% even after testing for 2000 cycles at 1 A g-1.

Abstract
Activated carbon supports for Si deposition with different porosities were prepared, and the effect of porosity on the electrochemical characteristics was investigated. The porosity of the support is a key parameter affecting the Si deposition mechanism and the stability of the electrode. In the Si deposition mechanism, as the porosity of activated carbon increases, the effect of particle size reduction due to the uniform dispersion of Si was confirmed. This implies that the porosity of activated carbon can affect the rate performance. However, excessively high porosity reduced the contact area between Si and activated carbon, resulting in poor electrode stability. Therefore, controlling the porosity of activated carbon is essential to improving the electrochemical characteristics.

Abstract
Recently, carbon nitrides and their carbon-based derivatives have been widely studied as anode materials of lithium-ion batteries due to their graphite-like structure and abundant nitrogen active sites. In this paper, a layered carbon nitride material C3N3 consisting of triazine rings with an ultrahigh theoretical specific capacity was designed and synthesized by an innovative method based on Fe powder-catalyzed carbon-carbon coupling polymerization of cyanuric chloride at 260 °C, with reference to the Ullmann reaction. The structural characterizations indicated that the as-synthesized material had a C/N ratio close to 1:1 and a layered structure and only contained one type of nitrogen, suggesting the successful synthesis of C3N3. When used as a lithium-ion battery anode, the C3N3 material showed a high reversible specific capacity up to 842.39 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1, good rate capability, and excellent cycling stability attributed to abundant pyridine nitrogen active sites, large specific surface area, and good structure stability. Ex situ XPS results indicated that Li+ storage relies on the reversible transformation of -C=N- and -C-N- groups as well as the formation of bridge-connected -C=C- bonds. To further optimize the performance, the reaction temperature was further increased to synthesize a series of C3N3 derivatives for the enhanced specific surface area and conductivity. The resulting derivative prepared at 550 °C showed the best electrochemical performance, with an initial specific capacity close to 900 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 and good cycling stability (94.3% capacity retention after 500 cycles at 1 A g-1). This work will undoubtedly inspire the further study of high-capacity carbon nitride-based electrode materials for energy storage.

Abstract
Graphene derivative materials are widely used as anode component in lithium-ion batteries. However, there is still a lack of reliable and foresighted guides helpful for designing high-performance graphene-based electrode materials. To this end, we strategically chose challenging graphite fluoride as starting material for the derivatization of graphene in order to exclude interference factors. As a result, graphene framework was functionalized with oxygen-containing carboxylate and sulfonate groups and oxygen-free aniline units at a similar functionalization degree. Due to the strong effect of lithiation, out-of-plane p-aminobenzoic acid blocks boosted the lithium-storage capacity of graphene matrix to 636 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A/g, and sulfanilic acid blocks maximized this value to 873 mAh g-1. Sadly, oxygen-free aniline functionalized graphene material only delivered a specific capacity of 88 mAh g-1. Meanwhile, spatial lithiated carboxylate and sulfonate units endowed graphene framework with better rate capability and cycling stability. Such a structure-performance relationship established herein was beneficial for the design and preparation of high-performance graphene derivative electrode materials.

Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28062775. [PMID: 36985749 PMCID: PMC10057254 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28062775] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2023] [Revised: 03/14/2023] [Accepted: 03/17/2023] [Indexed: 03/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Traditional graphite anode material typically shows a low theoretical capacity and easy lithium decomposition. Molybdenum disulfide is one of the promising anode materials for advanced lithium-ion batteries, which possess low cost, unique two-dimensional layered structure, and high theoretical capacity. However, the low reversible capacity and the cycling-capacity retention rate induced by its poor conductivity and volume expansion during cycling blocks further application. In this paper, a collaborative control strategy of monodisperse MoS2/graphite composites was utilized and studied in detail. MoS2/graphite nanocomposites with different ratios (MoS2:graphite = 20%:80%, 40%:60%, 60%:40%, and 80%:20%) were prepared by mechanical ball-milling and low-temperature annealing. The graphite sheets were uniformly dispersed between the MoS2 sheets by the ball-milling process, which effectively reduced the agglomeration of MoS2 and simultaneously improved the electrical conductivity of the composite. It was found that the capacity of MoS2/graphite composites kept increasing along with the increasing percentage of MoS2 and possessed the highest initial discharge capacity (832.70 mAh/g) when MoS2:graphite = 80%:20%. This facile strategy is easy to implement, is low-cost, and is cosmically produced, which is suitable for the development and manufacture of advance lithium-ion batteries.

Abstract
We report on the facile and scalable catalytic conversion of natural graphite and MoS2 minerals into α-MoO3 nanoribbons incorporated into hexagonal MoS2 and graphene nanosheets, and evaluate the structural, morphological and electrochemical performances of the hybrid nanostructured material obtained. Mechanochemical treatment of raw materials, followed by catalytic molten salt treatment leads to the formation of nanostructures with promising electrochemical performances. We examined the effect of processing temperature on the electrochemical performance of the products. At 1100 °C, an excellent Li-ion storage capacity of 773.5 mAh g−1 is obtained after 180 cycles, considerably greater than that of MoS2 (176.8 mAh g−1). The enhanced capacity and the rate performance of this electrode are attributed to the well-integrated components, characterized by the formation of interfacial molybdenum oxycarbide layer during the synthesis process, contributing to the reduced electrical/electrochemical resistance of the sample. This unique morphology promotes the charge and ions transfer through the reduction of the Li-ion diffusion coefficient (1.2 × 10−18 cm2 s−1), enhancing the pseudocapacitive performance of the electrode; 59.3% at the scan rate of 0.5 mV s−1. This article provides a green and low-cost route to convert highly available natural graphite and MoS2 minerals into nanostructured hybrid materials with promising Li-ion storage performance.

Abstract
In the field of lithium-based batteries, there is often a substantial divide between academic research and industrial market needs. This is in part driven by a lack of peer-reviewed publications from industry. Here we present a non-academic view on applied research in lithium-based batteries to sharpen the focus and help bridge the gap between academic and industrial research. We focus our discussion on key metrics and challenges to be considered when developing new technologies in this industry. We also explore the need to consider various performance aspects in unison when developing a new material/technology. Moreover, we also investigate the suitability of supply chains, sustainability of materials and the impact on system-level cost as factors that need to be accounted for when working on new technologies. With these considerations in mind, we then assess the latest developments in the lithium-based battery industry, providing our views on the challenges and prospects of various technologies.

Abstract
Hofmann metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a variety of hybrid inorganic-organic polymers with a stable framework, plentiful adjustable pore size, and redox active sites, which display great application potential in energy storage. Unfortunately, the rapid and uncontrollable rate of coordination reaction results in a large size and an anomalous morphology, and the low electrical conductivity also severely limited further development, so there are few literature studies on Hofmann MOFs as anode materials for rechargeable batteries. Introducing graphene oxide can not only greatly facilitate the formation of a continuous conductive network but also effectively anchor and disperse MOF particles by utilizing the two-dimensional planar structure, thus reducing the sizes and agglomeration of particles. In this work, various mass ratios of graphene oxide with 3D Hofmann Ni-Pz-Ni MOFs were prepared via a simple one-pot solvothermal method. Benefiting from the gradually increasing capacitance characteristic during the continuous charge/discharge process, the Ni-Pz-Ni/GO-20% electrode exhibits a great reversible capacity of 896.1 mAh g-1 after 100 cycles and excellent rate capability, which will lay a theoretical foundation for exploring the high-performance Hofmann MOFs in the future.

Abstract
Silicon (Si), have been considered as promising anode material for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), due to its high theoretical specific capacity of 4200 mAh g-1. However, the poor electrical conductivity and large volume change during lithiation/delithiation process, resulting in poor cycling stability, and seriously hindered the practical application in LIBs. Herein, a multiple Si/FexSiy@NC/CNTs composite is synthesized and investigated as advanced anode materials for LIBs via a simple one-step method. Such multiple Si/FexSiy@NC/CNTs composite has several merits including the FexSiy can not only accommodate the huge volume change of Si nanoparticles, but also enhance the conductivity upon discharge/charge process. Furthermore, the in-situ growth CNTs may help establish a long-range conductivity, and the Nitrogen-doped carbon (NC) layer can further improve the conductivity of Si, as well as inhibit the direct contract between electrolyte and Si during cycling process. Accordingly, the Si/FexSiy@NC/CNTs-1 exhibits excellent cycling stability (a high capacity of 994.4 mAh g-1 is maintained at 1.0 A g-1 after 600cycles) and outstanding rate capability (a suitable capacity of 441.7 mAh g-1 was obtained even at 5.0 A g-1). Moreover, the assembled full cell can achieve a capacity of 141.4 mAh g-1 after 65 cycles at 1.0C, exhibiting outstanding cycling stability. This work provides a prospective way for the commercial production of high-performance Si-based anode materials for LIBs.

Abstract
In this study, cuboid-like anhydrous CoC2 O4 particles (CoC2 O4 -HK) are synthesized through a potassium citrate-assisted hydrothermal method, which possess well-crystallized structure for fast Li+ transportation and efficient Li+ intercalation pseudocapacitive behaviors. When being used in lithium-ion batteries, the as-prepared CoC2 O4 -HK delivers a high reversible capacity (≈1360 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 ), good rate capability (≈650 mAh g-1 at 5 A g-1 ) and outstanding cycling stability (835 mAh g-1 after 1000 cycles at 1 A g-1 ). Characterizations illustrate that the Li+ -intercalation pseudocapacitance dominates the charge storage of CoC2 O4 -HK electrode, together with the reversible reaction of CoC2 O4 +2Li+ +2e- →Co+Li2 C2 O4 on discharging and charging. In addition, CoC2 O4 -HK particles are also used together with carbon-sulfur composite materials as the electrocatalysts for lithium-sulfur (Li-S) battery, which displays a gratifying sulfur electrochemistry with a high reversibility of 1021.5 mAh g-1 at 2 C and a low decay rate of 0.079% per cycle after 500 cycles. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations show that CoC2 O4 /C can regulate the adsorption-activation of reaction intermediates and therefore boost the catalytic conversion of polysulfides. Therefore, this work presents a new prospect of applying CoC2 O4 as the high-performance electrode materials for rechargeable Li-ion and Li-S batteries.

Abstract
The monitoring and prediction of the health status and the end of life of batteries during the actual operation plays a key role in the battery safety management. However, although many related studies have achieved exciting results, there are few systematic and comprehensive reviews on these prediction methods. In this paper, the current prediction models of remaining useful life of lithium-ion batteries are divided into mechanism-based models, semi-empirical models and data-driven models. Their advantages, technical obstacles, improvement methods and prediction performance are summarized, and the latest research results are shown by comparison. We highlight that the fusion models of convolution neural network, long short term memory network and so on, which have great practical application prospects because of their outstanding computing efficiency and strong modeling ability. Finally, we look forward to the future work in simplifying the model and improving its interpretability.
