Persistent cyclestability of carbon coated Zn–Sn metal oxide/carbon microspheres as highly reversible anode material for lithium-ion batteries

Significant impact of 2D graphene nanosheets on large volume change tin-based anodes in lithium-ion batteries: A review

“…During the charge/ discharge processes, the volume expansion and particle aggregation would be relieved by the buffering GNSs. (ii) The rich functional groups at the GNS surface can serve as an appealing 2D substrate for the anisotropic growth of various Sn-based materials [100]. (iii) The high intrinsic surface area and outstanding electrical conductivity of GNSs provide an ideal platform for the storage and transportation of lithium ions and electrons [100].…”

(iii) The high intrinsic surface area and outstanding electrical conductivity of GNSs provide an ideal platform for the storage and transportation of lithium ions and electrons [100]. As a result, a lot of effort has been devoted to introducing GNSs into Sn-based anode materials, and a large number of papers have been published based on this idea [101e108].…”

Recent Progress of TiO2-Based Anodes for Li Ion Batteries

“…, relevant mechanical strength, excellent conductivity (5000 W m −1 K −1 ), high optical transmittance (∼97.7%), large theoretical specific surface area (2630 m 2 g −1 ), and superior mechanical strength which make graphene a suitable anode material for LIBs [105][106][107][108][109][110][111]. Besides, the rich functional groups on the surface of graphene make it an appealing 2D substrate for the anisotropic growth of different kinds of active materials [112,113]. For example, Fang el al.…”

In situsynthesis of expanded graphite embedded with amorphous carbon-coated aluminum particles as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries

“…Many organic compounds and polymers can form amorphous carbon materials under high-temperature pyrolysis in an inert atmosphere, which have always been used as carbon coatings for metal anode materials with their excellent electrical conductivity, high mechanical strength and high lithium storage capacity. Carbon-coated metal anode materials [8][9][10][11] have become a hot-spot research at present. Expanded graphite (EG) [12][13][14] possesses a long-rangeordered layered structure, a larger interlayer lattice distance (>0.34 nm) and extraordinary properties such as good flexibility, great chemical tolerance, high electrical and thermal conductivities and outstanding thermal shock resistance.…”
