Transition metal dissolution is one of the major causes capacity and power fade in lithium-ion batteries employing transition oxides positive electrode. Accelerated testing was accomplished by introducing transition-metal salts electrolyte order to study effects on performance. It shown that a reduction cycle stability full cells. The SEI layer resistance negative electrode cells increases with increasing concentration salts. growth non-uniform believed be caused species leading an increase...
Abstract Lithium is perceived as an ideal anode for next generation batteries with high‐energy density. However, the critical issue of intractable growth Li dendrites, which leads to a poor cycling life, still remains. Herein, hierarchical surface designed and constructed on carbon fiber (CF) using binders in fabricated CF paper (CFP). The lightweight high mechanical properties facilitated establish 3D network structure alternative Cu foil. are transformed into oxygen‐containing amorphous...
We report electrospun Co-carbon nanofibers as an efficient ORR catalyst and a study of active site formation.
Abstract This study explores a facile method to prepare an efficient and durable support for Pt catalyst of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). As candidate, Nb-doped TiO 2 (Nb-TiO ) nanofibers are simply fabricated using electrospinning technique, followed by heat treatment. Doping Nb into the leads drastic increase in electrical conductivity with doping level up 25 at. % (Nb 0.25 Ti 0.75 O ). nanoparticles synthesized on prepared -nanofibers (Pt/Nb-TiO as well commercial...
Enhancing the performance of rechargeable lithium (Li)–sulfur (S) batteries is one most popular topics in a battery field because their low cost and high specific energy. However, S experiences dissolution during its electrochemical reactions; hence, maintaining initial capacity challenging. Protecting cathode with Li ion conducting layer that acts as barrier for polysulfide transport an attractive strategy, but formation such protective layers typically involves significant effort cost....
Abstract Li-ion battery, separator, multicoreshell structure, thermal stability, long-term stability. A nanofibrous membrane with multiple cores of polyimide (PI) in the shell polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF) was prepared using a facile one-pot electrospinning technique single nozzle. Unique multicore-shell (MCS) structure electrospun composite fibers obtained, which resulted from phase-separated polymer solution. Multiple PI core fibrils high molecular orientation were well-embedded across...
Abstract Li-ion batteries dominate portable energy storage due to their exceptional power and characteristics. Yet, various consumer devices electric vehicles demand higher specific with longer cycle life. Here we report a full-cell battery that contains lithiated Si/graphene anode paired selenium disulfide (SeS 2 ) cathode high capacity long-term stability. Selenium, which dissolves from the SeS cathode, was found become component of solid electrolyte interphase (SEI), leading significant...
Although lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries have 5-10 times higher theoretical capacity (1675 mAh g-1) than present commercial lithium-ion batteries, Li-S show a rapid and continuous fading due to the polysulfide dissolution in common electrolytes. Here, we propose use of sulfur-based cathode material, amorphous MoS3 reduced graphene oxide (r-GO) composite, which can be substituted for pure cathodes. In order enhance kinetics stability electrodes, intentionally pulverize microsized sheet into...
Several in-situ preparation methods of gel polymer electrolytes (GPEs) to develop long-lasting and safe lithium ion batteries (LIBs) recently have been reported.
