Carbon nanotube network modified carbon fibre paper for Li-ion batteries

Abstract

Here we report on the direct deposition of large quantities of highly porous carbon nanotube networks onto a carbon fibre paper support; subsequently utilised as the anode in a Li-ion battery application showing improved long-term performance and chemical stability with a significant fully reversible capacity of 546 mAh g À1 .

Ultrafast synthesis of MoS2 or WS2-reduced graphene oxide composites via hybrid microwave annealing for anode materials of lithium ion batteries

“…Thus far, various candidates have been investigated as a replacement for graphite including carbon-based materials [3,4], metal oxides [5,6], and metal-based alloys [7,8]. Single-and multi-walled carbon nanotubes show relatively higher capacity of 340e546 mA h g À1 compared to commercial graphite [3,4].…”

Admicellar Polymerization and Its Application in Textiles

“…The higher the I G /I D ratios, fewer are the defects in the CNT structure. 73 The I G /I D ratios of both the as-received CNTs and PAN-coated CNTs were in the region of 0.4, indicating that ADPM did not add any significant defect to the original CNT structure. The PAN-coated CNT/PAN composites were also studied using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) (refer to Table IV).…”

Electrospun carbon-based nanostructured electrodes for advanced energy storage – A review

“…Freestanding electrodes that do not need binder and active carbon can guarantee effective intimate electric contact between the current collector and the active material [145], enabling a good rate and cycling life as well as high power density [146]. A significant approach of using electrospun CNF film to support SnO x particles can obtain a freestanding composite electrode (Fig.…”
