Potentiodynamic and galvanostatic cycling in 1 M ethylene carbonate-dimethyl carbonate solution of LiClO 4 were used to study electrolytic tin fi lms deposited from complex (tartrate, citrate, and citrate-trilonate) electrolytes. It was shown that the nature of a ligand strongly affects the electrochemical characteristics, specifi c capacity of tin fi lms, and effi ciency of their cycling in lithium power sources. The most stable charge-discharge characteristics are inherent in tin fi lms deposited from the citrate electrolyte.
Electrolytic deposits of tin-nickel alloys as anodes for lithium ion batteries were investigated by potentiodynamic and galvanostatic cycling methods in solutions of ethylene carbonate, dimethyl carbonate, and LiClO 4 (1 mol/L). It has been shown that the deposits of tin-nickel alloys obtained from alkaline tar trate-trilonate electrolytes in the first cycles are characterized by a high specific capacity of up to 700 mA h/g, which decreases to 500 mA h/g during the cycling. The tin-nickel alloys obtained are able to ensure high charge-discharge current densities without mechanical destruction.
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.
