Construction of hybrid bowl-like structures by anchoring NiO nanosheets on flat carbon hollow particles with enhanced lithium storage properties

Abstract

Bowl-like hybrid structures constructed by anchoring NiO nanosheets on flat carbon shells exhibit superior lithium storage properties.

Carbon nanotube template synthesis of hierarchical NiCoO2 composite for non-enzyme glucose detection

“…A c c e p t e d M a n u s c r i p t efficientrouting to growternary nickel cobaltite on highly conductive carbonmaterialis highly challenging but desirable.It is evident that introducing -SO 3 H -groups can lead to a significant increase in hydrophilicity of support material and easilyabsorbthe positively charged precursor ionsthrough theelectrostatic interaction with the negative functional groups, andthen increase the dispersion of metal [27,28]and metal oxide nanostructures [29].Ding and coworkerspreparedvarious of sulfonated polymers (such as polystyrene [30], polydivinylbenzene [15,31,32], etc. )as the stabilizer for the preparation of metal oxidenanosheets, and the resulting metal oxide composite showed much better performance in lithium storage than that in unsulfonated support material.However, to maintain the feature of the metal oxide nanosheets, the pyrolysis temperature of the composite is relative low, leading to that the electron conductivity might not be satisfactory.…”

Improved sodium-ion storage performance of TiO2nanotubes by Ni2+doping

“…[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] The successful application of LIBs is mainly owing to their long cycle life, fast rate capability, excellent energy density, light weight and environmental friendliness. [1][2][3][4] However, lithium will be depleted in the future because of current large-scale applications of LIBs 25 and limited lithium resources.…”

Cubic and octahedral Cu2O nanostructures as anodes for lithium-ion batteries

“…[9][10][11][12][13] Recently, transition metal oxides, such as Cu 2 O, NiO, SnO 2 , and TiO 2 , are regarded as alternative anodes of carbon-based materials with a low production cost, high abundance, nontoxicity, and high capacity. 14,15 Among diverse transition metal oxides, In the lithiation/delithiation process with Cu 2 O as an anode, the Cu nanocrystals that form upon lithiation are dispersed in a Li 2 O matrix and restored to the oxide upon delithiation. However, during the charge/discharge process, the volume expansion of the electrode can result in a reduced electrochemical performance in LIBs.…”
