“…The upper plateau at about 1.5 V is associated to the lithiation process of Sb 2 Se 3 directly to Sb and Li 2 Se [19]. And the other plateau at about 0.9 V is attributed to the alloying reaction of metallic Sb to Li 3 Sb [20]. These results confirm the global reactions (2) and (3) based on the simple equations, which suggests that a lithium insertion could take place [21][22][23].…”

The good crystalline Sb2Se3 nanorods have been successfully synthesized through a simple polyol process. The detailed morphological and structural characterizations reveal that nanorods are composed of Sb2Se3 single crystals oriented along the [120] orientation; the tiny Sb2Se3 nanorods are found to display a higher crystallinity with respect to thick Sb2Se3 nanorods. The nanorods have been applied as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries, with tiny Sb2Se3 nanorod anodes delivering the relatively high discharge capacity of 702 mAh g−1 at 0.1 C and could maintain the capacity of 230 mAh g−1 after 100 cycles. A more stable cycling performance is also demonstrated on tiny Sb2Se3 nanorods, which is ascribed to their more pronounced one-dimensional nanostructure.

“…These difficulties can be mitigated by nanostructuring, particularly when the active material is embedded in an elastic and conductive network that helps to enhance electronic transport and reduce the cycling instability caused by volumetric changes in the conversion-alloying-type anode material 36,46,47 . Specifically, in the last few years, extensive effort has focused on various forms of nanostructured Sb 2 S 3 , such as Sb 2 S 3 nanowires 24,[48][49][50][51] , nanorods 45,52,53 , nanoparticles (NPs) 37,54-57 , nanocables 58 , and Sb 2 S 3 /C nanocomposites 23 , to maximize the anodic charge-storage capacity and improve the cycling performance. Notably, the electrochemical performance of highly uniform colloidal Sb 2 S 3 NPs has not been reported.…”

To maximize the anodic charge storage capacity of Li-ion and Na-ion batteries (LIBs and SIBs, respectively), the conversion-alloying-type Sb 2 S 3 anode has attracted considerable interest because of its merits of a high theoretical capacity of 946 mAh g −1 and a suitable anodic lithiation/delithiation voltage window of 0.1-2 V vs. Li + /Li. Recent advances in nanostructuring of the Sb 2 S 3 anode provide an effective way of mitigating the challenges of structure conversion and volume expansion upon lithiation/sodiation that severely hinder the Sb 2 S 3 cycling stability. In this context, we report uniformly sized colloidal Sb 2 S 3 nanoparticles (NPs) as a model Sb 2 S 3 anode material for LIBs and SIBs to investigate the effect of the primary particle size on the electrochemical performance of the Sb 2 S 3 anode. We found that compared with microcrystalline Sb 2 S 3 , smaller ca. 20-25 nm and ca. 180-200 nm Sb 2 S 3 NPs exhibit enhanced cycling stability as anode materials in both rechargeable LIBs and SIBs. Importantly, for the ca. 20-25 nm Sb 2 S 3 NPs, a high initial Li-ion storage capacity of 742 mAh g −1 was achieved at a current density of 2.4 A g −1. At least 55% of this capacity was retained after 1200 cycles, which is among the most stable performance Sb 2 S 3 anodes for LIBs.

“…11 To address these issues, some methods have been applied that can be summarized as follows: (1) the design of a unique morphology or porous materials, such as bundle-like Sb 2 S 3 (ref. 12) and owerlike Sb 2 S 3 , 13 to alleviate the volume changes and (2) combining Sb 2 S 3 with carbon materials or other conductive materials (graphite, 9 graphene, 14 polypyrrole, 10 and carbon ber 15 ).…”

Recently, Sb 2 S 3 has drawn extensive interest in the energy storage domain due to its high theoretical capacity of 946 mA h g À1 . However, the inherent disadvantages of serious volume expansion and poor conductivity restrict the development of Sb 2 S 3 for its application in SIBs. In addition, chemical synthesis is a main method to prepare Sb 2 S 3 , which is commonly accompanied by environmental pollution and excessive energy consumption. Herein, the natural stibnite mineral was directly applied in SIBs after modification with graphite via an effective and facile approach. The novel composites exhibited excellent electrochemical properties with higher reversible capacity, better rate capability and more outstanding cycling stability than the bare natural stibnite mineral. Briefly, this study is anticipated to provide a reference for the development of natural minerals as first-hand materials in energy storage and a new approach to improve natural stibnite mineral composites for their application as anodes in SIBs.
