Abstract
The successful utilization of silicon nanoparticles (Si-NPs) to enhance the performance of Li-ion batteries (LIBs) has demonstrated their potential as high-capacity anode materials for next-generation LIBs. Additionally, the availability and relatively low cost of sodium resources have a significant influence on developing Na-ion batteries (SIBs). Despite the unique properties of Si-NPs as SIBs anode material, limited study has been conducted on their application in these batteries. However, the knowledge gained from using Si-NPs in LIBs can be applied to develop Si-based anodes in SIBs by employing similar strategies to overcome their drawbacks. In this review, a brief history of Si-NPs' usage in LIBs is provided and discuss the strategies employed to overcome the challenges, aiming to inspire and offer valuable insights to guide future research endeavors.

Three-dimensional network of nitrogen-doped carbon matrix-encapsulated Si nanoparticles/carbon nanofibers hybrids for lithium-ion battery anodes with excellent capability. Sci Rep 2022; 12:16002. [PMID: 36163350 PMCID: PMC9512820 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-20026-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2022] [Accepted: 09/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/01/2022] Open
Abstract
Three-dimensionally structured silicon (Si)–carbon (C) nanocomposites have great potential as anodes in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Here, we report a Nitrogen-doped graphene/carbon-encapsulated Si nanoparticle/carbon nanofiber composite (NG/C@Si/CNF) prepared by methods of surface modification, electrostatic self-assembly, cross-linking with heat treatment, and further carbonization as a potential high-performance anode for LIBs. The N-doped C matrix wrapped around Si nanoparticles improved the electrical conductivity of the composites and buffered the volume change of Si nanoparticles during lithiation/delithiation. Uniformly dispersed CNF in composites acted as conductive networks for the fast transport of ions and electrons. The entire tightly connected organic material of NG/C@Si and CNF prevented the crushing and shedding of particles and maintained the integrity of the electrode structure. The NG/C@Si/CNF composite exhibited better rate capability and cycling performance compared with the other electrode materials. After 100 cycles, the electrode maintained a high reversible specific capacity of 1371.4 mAh/g.

Abstract
Various nanoscale SiO2 and their composites have demonstrated superior electrochemical performance as anodes for lithium-ion batteries. However, both the battery production and real applications require the integration of nanoscale SiO2 into micrometer-sized secondary particles while preserving their excellent stability and conductivity, which remains a great challenge. In this work, a unique carbon yarn-ball structure is successfully synthesized that entangles nanoscale SiO2 together to build a micrometer-sized secondary particle. The hook-like carbon wires closely adhere to individual SiO2 nanoparticles, which constitute the basic unit of the yarn-ball structure. The entangled carbon wires create a network of electron conduction highways for SiO2 , and the yarn-ball structure provides a resilient 3D matrix that can effectively buffer the anisotropic volume changes of SiO2 during Li ion insertion/extraction. Under 0.1 A g-1 , the carbon yarn-ball-entangled SiO2 can deliver a 1297 mAh g-1 discharge capacity with a small irreversible capacity of 82 mAh g-1 . The entangled carbon yarn ball firmly maintains its structural integrity during high-rate cycling (1 A g-1 ), which gives rise to a large accessible capacity (709 mAh g-1 , 90.7% retention for 500 cycles), superior coulombic efficiency (>99.9%), and excellent structural stability.

Abstract
Developing green materials applied in lithium-ion batteries is of significant importance for the present-day society. Herein, a feasible strategy to construct Fe3O4nanoparticles (NPs) embedded in three-dimensional (3D) honeycomb biochar derived from pleurotus eryngii was proposed. The obtained material consists of Fe3O4NPs (35-85 nm) encapsulated in 3D honeycomb biochar possesses a high specific capacity of 723 mAh g-1at 1.5 A g-1after 1000 cycles. The effectively enhanced cycling life of Fe3O4@C nanocomposites can be ascribed to the small Fe3O4NPs provide lower degree of cracking and high specific capacity, while the honeycomb biochar function like a cage to inhibit huge volume change of Fe3O4NPs during the charge-discharge process.
