J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 669:740-753. [PMID: 38739966 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.05.044] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2024] [Revised: 05/03/2024] [Accepted: 05/07/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024]
Abstract
Biochar is regarded as a promising lithium-ion batteries anode material, owing to its high cost-effectiveness. However, the poor specific capacity and cycling stability have limited its practical applications. A straightforward and cost-efficient solvothermal method is presented for synthesizing Mn3O4/biochar composites in this study. By adjusting solvothermal temperatures, Mn3O4 with different morphology is prepared and anchored on the biochar surface (MKAC-T) to improve the electrochemical performance. Due to the morphological effect of nanospherical Mn3O4 on the biochar surface, the MKAC-180 anode material demonstrates outstanding reversible capacity (992.5 mAh/g at 0.2 A/g), significant initial coulombic efficiency (61.1 %), stable cycling life (605.3 mAh/g at 1.0 A/g after 1000 cycles), and excellent rate performance (385.8 mAh/g at 1.6 A/g). Moreover, electro-kinetic analysis and ex-situ physicochemical characterizations are employed to illustrate the charge storage mechanisms of MKAC-180 anode. This study provides valuable insights into the "structure-activity relationship" between Mn3O4 microstructure and electrochemical performance for the Mn3O4/biochar composites, illuminating the industrial utilization of biomass carbon anode materials.

[PMID: 38295700 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.01.198] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/10/2023] [Revised: 01/21/2024] [Accepted: 01/27/2024] [Indexed: 02/27/2024]
Abstract
Olivine FePO4 is widely regarded as an optimal cathode material for sodium-ion batteries due to its impressive theoretical capacity of 177.7 mAh g-1. Nonetheless, the material's limited application stems from its intrinsic low electronic and ionic conductivities and ion diffusion rate. Previously, most modifications of olivine FePO4 are conducted through electrochemical or ion exchange processes in organic solvents, which severely restricted its potential for large-scale applications. In this research, a novel water-based ion exchange method is proposed for the synthesis of Ni-doped, Mn-doped, and Ni, Mn co-doped FePO4@C, which is non-toxic, cost-effective, and demonstrating promising prospects for various applications. Fe2.7Mn0.2Ni0.1PO4@C (0.2Mn0.1Ni-FP@C) is synthesized by a straightforward ion exchange method in aqueous media. The material exhibits a discharge capacity of 154.4 mAh g-1 at 0.1C rate. After 300 cycles at 1C, the capacity retention rate remains at 70.7 %. Numerous tests and calculations conducted in this study demonstrate that 0.2Mn0.1Ni-FP@C, modified through Mn3+ and Ni3+ co-doping, exhibits superior electrochemical performance due to its enhanced electronic conductivity and ion diffusion rate.

Abstract
Advancing the lithium-ion battery technology requires the understanding of electrochemical processes in electrode materials with high resolution, accuracy, and sensitivity. However, most techniques today are limited by their inability to separate the complex signals from slurry-coated composite electrodes. Here, we use a three-dimensional "Swiss-roll" microtubular electrode that is incorporated into a micrometer-sized lithium battery. This on-chip platform combines various in situ characterization techniques and precisely probes the intrinsic electrochemical properties of each active material due to the removal of unnecessary binders and additives. As an example, it helps elucidate the critical role of Fe substitution in a conversion-type NiO electrode by monitoring the evolution of Fe2O3 and solid electrolyte interphase layer. The markedly enhanced electrode performances are therefore explained. Our approach exposes a hitherto unexplored route to tracking the phase, morphology, and electrochemical evolution of electrodes in real time, allowing us to reveal information that is not accessible with bulk-level characterization techniques.

Abstract
Lithium metal is considered as an ideal anode candidate for next generation Li battery systems since its high capacity, low density, and low working potential. However, the uncontrollable growth of Li dendrites and infinite volume expansion impede the commercialized applications of Li-metal anodes. In this work, we rationally designed and constructed a hierarchical porous hollow carbon nanofiber decorated with diverse metal sulfides (MS-ZS@PHC). This composite scaffold has three advantages: First, the synergistic effect of multiple-size lithiophilic phases (nano ZnS and micro MoS2) can regulate Li ions nuclei and grow up homogenously on the scaffold. Second, the enlarged interplanar spacing of MoS2 microsphere on the fibers can provide abundant channels for Li ions transportation. Third, the porous scaffold can confine the volume expansion of Li metal anode during cycling. Therefore, in a symmetrical cell, the MS-ZS@PHC host presents a homogenous Li plating/stripping behavior and runs steadily for 1100 h at 5 mA cm-2 with a capacity of 5 mAh cm-2 and even for 700 h at 10 mA cm-2 with a capacity of 1 mAh cm-2. A full cell using MS-ZS@PHC /Li composite as anode and coupled with LiFePO4 as cathode delivers an excellent cyclic and rate performances.

Abstract
Organic-ligand-based solution processes of metal and transition metal oxide (TMO) nanoparticles (NPs) have been widely studied for the preparation of electrode materials with desired electrical and electrochemical properties for various energy devices. However, the ligands adsorbed on NPs have a significant effect on the intrinsic properties of materials, thus influencing the performance of bulk electrodes assembled by NPs for energy devices. To resolve these critical drawbacks, numerous approaches have focused on developing unique surface chemistry that can exchange bulky ligands with small ligands or remove bulky ligands from NPs after NP deposition. In particular, recent studies have reported that the ligand-exchange-induced layer-by-layer (LE-LbL) assembly of NPs enables controlled assembly of NPs with the desired interparticle distance, and interfaces, dramatically improving the electrical/electrochemical performance of electrodes. This emerging approach also demonstrates that efficient surface ligand engineering can exploit the unique electrochemical properties of individual NPs and maximize the electrochemical performance of the resultant NP-assembled electrodes through improved charge transfer efficiency. This report focuses on how LE-LbL assembly can be effectively applied to NP-based energy storage/conversion electrodes. First, the basic principles of the LE-LbL approach are introduced and then recent progress on NP-based energy electrodes prepared via the LE-LbL approach is reviewed.

Abstract
Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) have attracted wide attention because of their prospects for grid-scale electrical regulation and cost effectiveness of sodium. In this regard, iron oxides (FeOx) are considered as one of the most promising anode candidates due to their high theoretical capacity and low cost. Unfortunately, the utilization of FeOx anodes suffers from sluggish reaction kinetics and significant lattice variation, causing insufficient rate performance and fast capacity degradation during the sodiation/desodiation process. In this study, Mn ions are incorporated through interstitial sites into a Fe3O4 lattice to form the Mn-incorporated Fe3O4/graphene (M-Fe3O4/G) composites through a facile hydrothermal method. Confirmed by XRD Rietveld refinement and the first-principles calculation, Mn occupation into the body structure can effectively condense the electron density around the Fermi level and thus contributes to the increased electrical conductivity and improved electrochemical properties. Accordingly, the M0.1Fe2.9O4/G composite demonstrates a high reversible capacity of 439.8 mA h g-1 at a current density of 100 mA g-1 over 200 cycles. Even at a high current density of 1 A g-1, the M-Fe3O4/G composites remain stable for over 1200 cycles, delivering a capacity of 210 mA h g-1. Coupled with a Na3V2(PO4)3-type cathode, the Mn-incorporated Fe3O4/G composites demonstrate good suitability in full SIBs (161.2 mA h g-1 at the current density of 1 A g-1 after 100 cycles). The regulation of Mn ions in the Fe3O4 lattice provides insights into the optimization of metal oxide anode candidates for their application in SIBs.

Abstract
Transition-metal selenides have captured sustainable research attention in energy storage and conversion field as promising anodes for sodium-ion batteries. However, for the majority of transition metal selenides, the potential windows have to compress to 0.5-3.0 V for the maintenance of cycling and rate capability, which largely sacrifices the capacity under low voltage and impair energy density for sodium full batteries. Herein, through introducing diverse metal ions, transition-metal selenides consisted of different composition doping (CoM-Se2@NC, M = Ni, Cu, Zn) are prepared with more stable structures and higher conductivity, which exhibit superior cycling and rate properties than those of CoSe2@NC even at a wider voltage range for sodium ion batteries. In particular, Zn2+ doping demonstrates the most prominent sodium storage performance among series materials, delivering a high capacity of 474 mAh g-1 after 80 cycles at 500 mA g-1 and rate capacities of 511.4, 382.7, 372.1, 339.2, 306.8, and 291.4 mAh g-1 at current densities of 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 1.4, 1.8, and 2.0 A g-1, respectively. The composition adjusting strategy based on metal ions doping can optimize electrochemical performances of metal selenides, offer an avenue to expand stable voltage windows, and provide a feasible approach for the construction of high specific energy sodium-ion batteries.

Abstract
Carbon coating is an effective method to enhance the lithium storage of metal oxides, which, however, suffers from harsh conditions in high-temperature hydrolysis of organic mass at inert atmosphere and compromised capacity due to the presence of low-capacity carbon. We herein report a direct assembly of ultrathin amorphous MnO2 nanosheets with thickness less than 3 nm over Fe2O3 nanospindle backbones at 95 °C as a mild-condition, short-process, and upscalable alternative to the classic carbon-coating method. The assembly of the amorphous MnO2 nanosheets significantly increases the electrical conductivity of Fe2O3 nanospindles. When evaluated as an anode for lithium-ion batteries, the Fe2O3@amorphous MnO2 electrode shows enhanced capacity retention compared to that of the Fe2O3 nanospindle electrode. In situ transmission electron microscopy and in situ X-ray diffraction observations of the electrochemically driven lithiation/delithiation of the Fe2O3@amorphous MnO2 electrode indicate that the assembled amorphous MnO2 nanosheets are in situ transformed into a Fe-Mn-O protection layer for better electrical conductivity, uncompromised Li+ penetration, and enhanced structural integration. The Fe2O3@amorphous MnO2 electrode therefore has a reversible capacity of 555 mAh g-1 after 100 galvanostatic charge/discharge cycles at 1000 mA g-1, comparable with that of the Fe3O4@C electrode derived via the classic carbon-coating route.

Abstract
The low electrical conductivity and ordinary lithium-ion transfer capability of Li4Ti5O12 restrict its application to some degree. In this work, dual-phase Li4Ti5O12-TiO2 (LTOT) was modified by composite zirconates of Li2ZrO3, Li6Zr2O7 (LZO) to boost the rate capabilities and cyclability. When the homogeneous mixture of LiNO3, Zr(NO3)4·5H2O and LTOT was roasted at 700 °C for 5 h, the obtained composite achieved a superior reversible capacity of 183.2 mAh g-1 to the pure Li4Ti5O12 after cycling at 100 mA g-1 for 100 times due to the existence of a scrap of TiO2. Meanwhile, when the composite was cycled by consecutively doubling the current density between 100 and 1600 mA g-1, the corresponding reversible capacities are 183.2, 179.1, 176.5, 173.3, and 169.3 mAh g-1, signifying the prominent rate capabilities. Even undergoing 1400 charge/discharge cycles at 500 mA g-1, a reversible capacity of 144.7 mAh g-1 was still attained, denoting splendid cyclability. From a series of comparative experiments and systematic characterizations, the formation of LZO meliorated both the Li+ migration kinetics and electrical conductivity on account of the concomitant superficial Zr4+ doping, responsible for the comprehensive elevation of the electrochemical performance.

Abstract
Interconnected macro/mesoporous structures of mixed metal oxide (MMO) are developed on nickel foam as freestanding anodes for Li-ion batteries. The sustainable production is realized via a wet chemical etching process with bio-friendly chemicals. By means of divalent iron doping during an in situ recrystallization process, the as-developed MMO anodes exhibit enhanced levels of cycling efficiency. Furthermore, this atomic-scale modification coherently synergizes with the encapsulation layer across a micrometer scale. During this step, we develop a quasi-gel-state tri-copolymer, i.e., F127-resorcinol-melamine, as the N-doped carbon source to regulate the interfacial chemistry of the MMO electrodes. Electrochemical tests of the modified Fe xNi1- xO@NC-NiF anode in both half-cell and full-cell configurations unravel the favorable suppression of the irreversible capacity loss and satisfactory cyclability at the high rates. This study highlights a proof-of-concept modification strategy across multiple scales to govern the interfacial chemical process of the electrodes toward better reversibility.

Abstract
CoFe2O4-coated polypyrrole (PPy) nanotubes (CFO-PPy-NTs) with three-dimensional (3-D) interconnected networks have been prepared through a simple hydrothermal method. The application has been also studied for sodium ion batteries (SIBs). The finely crystallized CoFe2O4 nanoparticles (around 5 nm in size) are uniformly grown on the PPy nanotubes. When tested as anode materials for SIBs, the CFO-PPy-NT electrode maintains a discharge capacity of 400 mA h g-1 and a stable Coulombic efficiency of 98% after 200 cycles at 100 mA g-1. Even at a higher current density of 1000 mA g-1, the composite can still retain a discharge capacity of 220 mA h g-1 after 2000 cycles. The superior electrochemical performance could be mainly ascribed to the uniform distribution of CoFe2O4 on the 3-D matrix of PPy interconnected nanotubes, which favors the diffusion of sodium ions and electronic transportation and also buffers the large volumetric expansion during charge/discharge. Thereby our study suggests that such CFO-PPy-NTs have great potential as an anode material for SIBs.

Abstract
One of the key challenges of aqueous supercapacitors is the relatively low voltage (0.8-2.0 V), which significantly limits the energy density and feasibility of practical applications of the device. Herein, this study reports a novel Ni-Mn-O solid-solution cathode to widen the supercapacitor device voltage, which can potentially suppress the oxygen evolution reaction and thus be operated stably within a quite wide potential window of 0-1.4 V (vs saturated calomel electrode) after a simple but unique phase-transformation electrochemical activation. The solid-solution structure is designed with an ordered array architecture and in situ nanocarbon modification to promote the charge/mass transfer kinetics. By paring with commercial activated carbon anode, an ultrahigh voltage asymmetric supercapacitor in neutral aqueous LiCl electrolyte is assembled (2.4 V; among the highest for single-cell supercapacitors). Moreover, by using a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-LiCl electrolyte, a 2.4 V hydrogel supercapacitor is further developed with an excellent Coulombic efficiency, good rate capability, and remarkable cycle life (>5000 cycles; 95.5% capacity retention). Only one cell can power the light-emitting diode indicator brightly. The resulting maximum volumetric energy density is 4.72 mWh cm-3 , which is much superior to previous thin-film manganese-oxide-based supercapacitors and even battery-supercapacitor hybrid devices.

Abstract
TiO2 is a promising and safe anode material for lithium ion batteries (LIBs). However, its practical application has been plagued by its poor rate capability and cycling properties. Herein, we successfully demonstrate a novel structured TiO2 anode with excellent rate capability and ultralong cycle life. The TiO2 material reported here shows a walnut-like porous core/shell structure with hybridized anatase/amorphous phases. The effective synergy of the unique walnut-like porous core/shell structure, the phase hybridization with nanoscale coherent heterointerfaces, and the presence of minor carbon species endows the TiO2 material with superior lithium storage properties in terms of high capacity (∼177 mA h g-1 at 1 C, 1 C = 170 mA g-1), good rate capability (62 mA h g-1 at 100 C), and excellent cycling stability (∼83 mA h g-1 was retained over 10 000 cycles at 10 C with a capacity decay of 0.002% per cycle).

Abstract
Because of its promising properties, honeycomb macroporous pattern (HMP) film has attracted increasing attention. It has been realized in many artificial nanomaterials, but the formation of these HMPs was attributed to templates or polymer/supermolecule/surfactant assistant assembly. Pure metal HMP film has been difficult to produce using a convenient colloidal template-free method. In this report, a unique template-free approach for preparation of Au HMP film with high transparency and conductivity is presented. Ultrathin Au nanowires, considered a linear polymer analogue, are directly assembled into HMP film on various substrates using a traditional static breath figure method. Subsequent chemical cross-linking and oxygen plasma treatment greatly enhance the stability and conductivity of the HMP film. The resulting HMP film exhibits great potential as an ideal candidate for transparent flexible conductive nanodevices.

Abstract
An advanced cathode material, nitrogen-doped carbon-coated Na3V2(PO4)3 hybriding with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) composite, namely double-nanocarbon synergistically modified Na3V2(PO4)3 of sodium ion battery, was fabricated through a simple sol-gel approach. According to the systemical analysis of experimental results on this composite structure, it is found that N-doping not only increases Na-ion migration velocity across the carbon-coated layer but also improves the electric conductivity of the carbon layer. More importantly, the CNTs 3D conducting network could significantly accelerate the electron transport between multiple particles of Na3V2(PO4)3, due to the intimate contacts between active materials and CNTs. Consenquently, the electrochemical properties of this double-nanocarbon-modified Na3V2(PO4)3 are significantly enhanced, especially the high-rate capability and long cycle life. For instance, its initial capacity of 94.5 mAh g(-1) at 0.2 C decreases to 70 mAh g(-1) at 70 C, and the capacity retention is 74%. Moreover, when dischage rate increases to a higher 30 C, the capacity retention is still as high as 87% after 300 cycles.

Employing Synergetic Effect of Doping and Thin Film Coating to Boost the Performance of Lithium-Ion Battery Cathode Particles. Sci Rep 2016; 6:25293.

Abstract
Atomic layer deposition (ALD) has evolved as an important technique to coat conformal protective thin films on cathode and anode particles of lithium ion batteries to enhance their electrochemical performance. Coating a conformal, conductive and optimal ultrathin film on cathode particles has significantly increased the capacity retention and cycle life as demonstrated in our previous work. In this work, we have unearthed the synergetic effect of electrochemically active iron oxide films coating and partial doping of iron on LiMn1.5Ni0.5O4 (LMNO) particles. The ionic Fe penetrates into the lattice structure of LMNO during the ALD process. After the structural defects were saturated, the iron started participating in formation of ultrathin oxide films on LMNO particle surface. Owing to the conductive nature of iron oxide films, with an optimal film thickness of ~0.6 nm, the initial capacity improved by ~25% at room temperature and by ~26% at an elevated temperature of 55 °C at a 1C cycling rate. The synergy of doping of LMNO with iron combined with the conductive and protective nature of the optimal iron oxide film led to a high capacity retention (~93% at room temperature and ~91% at 55 °C) even after 1,000 cycles at a 1C cycling rate.

Abstract
MnO2 is shown for the first time to be electrochemically active as a conversion anode for Na-ion batteries (NIBs). Space-confined ultrafine (UF)-MnO2, with an average crystal size of 4 nm, synthesized using a porous silicon dioxide templated hydrothermal process exhibits a high reversible sodiation capacity of 567 mA h g(-1), in contrast to the negligible activity shown by the aggregates of larger (14 nm) MnO2 nanocrystallites. The remarkably enhanced sodiation activity of the UF-MnO2 is attributable to its greatly reduced crystal size, which facilitates diffusion of Na ions, along with high surface energy arising from extensive heterogeneous interfacial bonding with the SiO2 surrounding. The UF-MnO2 anode exhibits an exceptional rate and cycle performance, exhibiting >70% capacity retention after 500 cycles. In operando synchrotron X-ray absorption near-edge structural analysis reveals combined charge-storage mechanisms involving conversion reaction between Mn(III) and Mn(II) oxides, Mn(III)-O1.5 + Na(+) + e(-)- ↔ 1/2Na2O + Mn(II)-O, and non-Mn-centered redox reactions. The finding suggests a new strategy for "activating" the potential electrochemical electrode materials that appear inactive in the bulk form.

Abstract
Constructing three-dimensional (3 D) nanostructures with excellent structural stability is an important approach for realizing high-rate capability and a high capacity of the electrode materials in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Herein, we report the synthesis of hydrangea-like amorphous mixed-valence VOx microspheres (a-VOx MSs) through a facile solvothermal method followed by controlled calcination. The resultant hydrangea-like a-VOx MSs are composed of intercrossed nanosheets and, thus, construct a 3 D network structure. Upon evaluation as an anode material for LIBs, the a-VOx MSs show excellent lithium-storage performance in terms of high capacity, good rate capability, and long-term stability upon extended cycling. Specifically, they exhibit very stable cycling behavior with a highly reversible capacity of 1050 mA h g(-1) at a rate of 0.1 A g(-1) after 140 cycles. They also show excellent rate capability, with a capacity of 390 mA h g(-1) at a rate as high as 10 A g(-1) . Detailed investigations on the morphological and structural changes of the a-VOx MSs upon cycling demonstrated that the a-VOx MSs went through modification of the local VO coordinations accompanied with the formation of a higher oxidation state of V, but still with an amorphous state throughout the whole discharge/charge process. Moreover, the a-VOx MSs can buffer huge volumetric changes during the insertion/extraction process, and at the same time they remain intact even after 200 cycles of the charge/discharge process. Thus, these microspheres may be a promising anode material for LIBs.

Abstract
The recycling of industrial materials could reduce their environmental impact and waste haulage fees and result in sustainable manufacturing. In this work, commercial poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) sponges are recycled into a macroporous carbon matrix to encapsulate size-tunable SnO2 nanocrystals as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) through a scalable, flash-combustion method. The hydroxyl groups present copiously in the recycled PVA sponges guarantee a uniform chemical coupling with a tin(IV) citrate complex through intermolecular hydrogen bonds. Then, a scalable, ultrafast combustion process (30 s) carbonizes the PVA sponge into a 3D carbon matrix. This PVA-sponge-derived carbon could not only buffer the volume fluctuations upon the Li-Sn alloying and dealloying processes but also afford a mixed conductive network, that is, a continuous carbon framework for electrical transport and macropores for facile electrolyte percolation. The best-performing electrode based on this composite delivers a rate performance up to 9.72 C (4 A g(-1) ) and long-term cyclability (500 cycles) for Li(+) ion storage. Moreover, cyclic voltammograms demonstrate the coexistence of alloying and dealloying processes and non-diffusion-controlled pseudocapacitive behavior, which collectively contribute to the high-rate Li(+) ion storage.

Abstract
A carbon/SnO2 composite (C-SnO2) with hierarchical photonic structure was fabricated from the templates of butterfly wings. We have investigated for the first time its application as the anode material for lithium-ion batteries. It was demonstrated to have high reversible capacities, good cycling stability, and excellent high-rate discharge performance, as shown by a capacitance of ∼572 mAh g(-1) after 100 cycles, 4.18 times that of commercial SnO2 powder (137 mAh g(-1)); a far better recovery capability of 94.3% was observed after a step-increase and sudden-recovery current. An obvious synergistic effect was found between the porous, hierarchically photonic microstructure and the presence of carbon; the synergy guarantees an effective flow of electrolyte and a short diffusion length of lithium ions, provides considerable buffering room, and prevents aggregation of SnO2 particles in the discharge/charge processes. This nature-inspired strategy points out a new direction for the fabrication of alternative anode materials.
