Li4Ti5O12/carbon black composite anode materials (LTO/CB) with various amounts of carbon black (CB) as an extra carbon source are synthesized by the sol–gel method for use in LIBs.
The electrochemical performance results show that the highest capacities, 208 (0.2 C), 198 (0.5 C), 189 (1 C), 179 (2 C), 157 mA h g−1 (5 C), are obtained from the LTOV06 electrode, which are higher than those of the LTO electrodes reported.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
