Core-Double-Shell TiO 2@Fe 3O 4@C Microspheres with Enhanced Cycling Performance as Anode Materials for Lithium-Ion Batteries. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 17:2543. [PMID: 38893808 PMCID: PMC11173600 DOI: 10.3390/ma17112543] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2024] [Revised: 05/18/2024] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024]
Abstract
Due to the volume expansion effect during charge and discharge processes, the application of transition metal oxide anode materials in lithium-ion batteries is limited. Composite materials and carbon coating are often considered feasible improvement methods. In this study, three types of TiO2@Fe3O4@C microspheres with a core-double-shell structure, namely TFCS (TiO2@Fe3O4@C with 0.0119 g PVP), TFCM (TiO2@Fe3O4@C with 0.0238 g PVP), and TFCL (TiO2@Fe3O4@C with 0.0476 g PVP), were prepared using PVP (polyvinylpyrrolidone) as the carbon source through homogeneous precipitation and high-temperature carbonization methods. After 500 cycles at a current density of 2 C, the specific capacities of these three microspheres are all higher than that of TiO2@Fe2O3 with significantly improved cycling stability. Among them, TFCM exhibits the highest specific capacity of 328.3 mAh·g-1, which was attributed to the amorphous carbon layer effectively mitigating the capacity decay caused by the volume expansion of iron oxide during charge and discharge processes. Additionally, the carbon coating layer enhances the electrical conductivity of the TiO2@Fe3O4@C materials, thereby improving their rate performance. Within the range of 100 to 1600 mA·g-1, the capacity retention rates for TiO2@Fe2O3, TFCS, TFCM, and TFCL are 27.2%, 35.2%, 35.9%, and 36.9%, respectively. This study provides insights into the development of new lithium-ion battery anode materials based on Ti and Fe oxides with the abundance and environmental friendliness of iron, titanium, and carbon resources in TiO2@Fe3O4@C microsphere anode materials, making this strategy potentially applicable.

Abstract
Tin disulfide is considered to be a promising anode material for Li ion batteries because of its high theoretical capacity as well as its natural abundance of sulfur and tin. Practical implementation of tin disulfide is, however, strongly hindered by inferior rate performance and poor cycling stability of unoptimized material. In this work, carbon-encapsulated tin disulfide nanoplates with a (101) plane orientation are prepared via a facile hydrothermal method, using polyethylene glycol as a surfactant to guide the crystal growth orientation, followed by a low-temperature carbon-coating process. Fast lithium ion diffusion channels are abundant and well-exposed on the surface of such obtained tin disulfide nanoplates, while the designed microstructure allows the effective decrease of the Li ion diffusion length in the electrode material. In addition, the outer carbon layer enhances the microscopic electrical conductivity and buffers the volumetric changes of the active particles during cycling. The optimized, carbon coated tin disulfide (101) nanoplates deliver a very high reversible capacity (960 mAh g-1 at a current density of 0.1 A g-1), superior rate capability (796 mAh g-1 at a current density as high as 2 A g-1), and an excellent cycling stability of 0.5 A g-1 for 300 cycles, with only 0.05% capacity decay per cycle.

Abstract
Fe3O4 has been regarded as a promising anode material for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due to its high theoretical capacity, low cost, and environmental friendliness. In this work, we present a one-pot reducing-composite-hydroxide-mediated (R-CHM) method to synthesize in situ carbon-coated Fe3O4 (Fe3O4@C) at 280 °C using Fe(NO3)3 · 9H2O and PEG800 as raw materials and NaOH/KOH as the medium. The as-prepared Fe3O4 octahedron has an average size of 100 nm in diameter, covered by a carbon layer with a thickness of 3 nm, as revealed by FESEM and HRTEM images. When used as anode materials in LIBs, Fe3O4@C exhibited an outstanding rate capability (1006, 918, 825, 737, 622, 455 and 317 mAh g-1 at 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 0.8, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 A g-1). Moreover, it presented an excellent cycling stability, with a retained capacity of 261 mAh g-1 after 800 cycles under an extremely high specific current density of 2.0 A g-1. Such results indicate that Fe3O4@C can provide a new route into the development of long-life electrodes for future rechargeable LIBs. Importantly, the R-CHM developed in our work can be extended for the synthesis of other carbon-coated electrodes for LIBs and functional nanostructures for broader applications.

Abstract
Nano- (or micro-scale) metal-organic frameworks (NMOFs), also known as coordination polymer particles (CPPs), have received much attention because of their structural diversities and tunable properties. Besides the direct use, NMOFs can be alternatively used as sacrificial templates/precursors for the preparation of a wide range of hybrid inorganic nanomaterials in straightforward and controllable manners. Distinct advantages of using NMOF templates are correlated to their structural and functional tailorability at molecular levels that is rarely acquired in any other conventional template/precursor. In addition, NMOF-derived inorganic nanomaterials with distinct chemical and physical properties are inferred to dramatically expand the scope of their utilization in many fields. In this review, we aim to provide readers with a comprehensive summary of recent progress in terms of synthetic approaches for the production of diverse inorganic hybrid nanostructures from as-synthesized NMOFs and their promising applications.
