A novel electrochemical reconstruction in nickel oxide nanowalls on Ni foam and the fine electrochemical performance as anode for lithium ion batteries

Silver–nickel oxide core–shell nanoflower arrays as high-performance anode for lithium-ion batteries

“…cycles. The phenomena for increased capacity are common for nanostructured transition-metal oxide materials, which can be ascribe to the reversible growth of a polymeric gel-like film resulting from kinetically activated electrolyte degradation [52][53][54][55]. The enhanced lithium storage performance can be ascribed to core-shell nanostructures that can enhance the conductivity and stabilize the structure during the charge/discharge process.…”

Sheath/Core Hybrid FeCO3/Carbon Nanofibers as Anode Materials for Superior Cycling Stability and Rate Performance

“…To improve the cyclic stability of metal‐based anode, a strategy is producing binder‐free electrode, for example, carbon cloth, carbon paper, carbon nanofibers and nickel foam as template to load active anode material. These flexible substrates can buffer the volume change of them during lithiation/delithiation . Ni et al.…”

“…Ni et al. reported a novel electrochemical reconstruction in nickel oxide nanowalls on Ni foam and studied the fine electrochemical performance as anode for LIBs . However, carbon cloth, carbon paper and nickel foam based anode electrode are excellent substrates but they are too heavy and thick to practically used in high energy density LIBs.…”

Facile synthesis of nanocrystalline-assembled nest-like NiO hollow microspheres with superior lithium storage performance

“…5,6 Among those transition mental oxides, nickel oxide (NiO) has been focused on as one of the most promising anode materials for LIBs because of its high theoretical capacity (718 mA h g À1 ), high volumetric energy density, natural abundance, low cost, low toxicity, and superior safety. 7,8 However, the pulverization of NiO particles associated with repeatedly volume expansion and contraction during lithiation/delithiation cycles leads to large irreversible capacity loss and poor cycling stability, which greatly limits its practical application in LIBs. 9,10 A promising solution is to reduce the size of active materials to nanoscale, which can not only shorten the diffusion pathway of both lithium ions and electrons, but also effectively relieve the pressure derived from the volume changes during discharge/charge cycles.…”
