Research into new composites to enhance the performance of lithium-ion battery electrode materials has become a trendy area of study. Cobalt-based composites are particularly prominent due to their exceptional electrochemical performance and unique physicochemical properties. Additionally, Ti 3 C 2 T x MXenes materials are anticipated to replace graphene and other carbonaceous materials since they possess an open structure and low lithium-ion diffusion barrier. In this work, we employed simple hydrothermal method to combine layered Ti 3 C 2 T x with needle-shaped CoOHF. The resulting nanosheets showed an even dispersion of CoOHF in the surface, leading to a remarkable increase in specific capacity. Furthermore, Ti 3 C 2 T x provided a higher number of lithium-ion active sites and improved the lithium-ion migration rate, while also ensuring the structure and stability of CoOHF. This composite material enables stable cycling for 1000 cycles at high current densities of 2 A g −1 and ultimately shows a large capacity of 802.4 mAh g −1 stably. Additionally, CoOHF/MXene composites display exceptional performance rate and cycling stability. This study highlights new feasible strategies for using multilayer Ti 3 C 2 T x in lithium-ion batteries, along with metal hydroxyfluorides in new, highly efficient lithium-ion battery anode materials.

TiNb 2 O 7 (TNO) is a promising anode for lithium-ion batteries owing to its high theoretical capacity, minimal volume expansion, and effective suppression of lithium dendrite formation. Nonetheless, the low electrical conductivity of TNO presents a barrier to practical application. Thus, a Mo 6+ doping strategy was utilized to address the conductivity issue, and TNO- x Mo ( x = 0, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20) anodes were prepared by a solid-state method. The incorporation of Mo 6+ ions result in a charge redistribution, which can elevate electronic conductivity and accelerate ion diffusion. What’s more, by precisely controlling the Mo 6+ ion concentration can regulate the morphologies of the TNO, enabling it to expose more fast-ion conducting (020) facets. The synergistic effect of the above two factors significantly enhances the conductivity and electrochemical properties of the TNO anode. As a result, the optimal TNO-0.05Mo with 2D lamellar structure exhibits a high discharge capacity of 347.6 mAh g −1 at 0.1C, superior rate performance, and an excellent cycle lifespan, with retention of 78% after 1500 cycles at 1.5C/1.5C. Meanwhile, the solid-state battery with TNO-0.05Mo as anode also displays improved rate and cycle performance than the liquid-state battery, indicating the great application potential for the next-generation energy storage devices.

Antimony sulfide (Sb2S3) possesses a high theoretical capacity and excellent reversibility, making it a promising anode material for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, its poor intrinsic conductivity and significant volume changes during charge/discharge cycles severely limit its cycling stability and rate performance. In this study, a novel composite material was synthesized by electrostatically assembling Sb2S3 nanowires (Sb2S3 nw) onto MXene nanosheets as a potential anode material (SbSMX). The introduction of highly conductive MXene substrates enhances electron transfer between the distinct interfaces of Sb2S3 and MXene. Additionally, the constructed 1D–2D structure promotes ion transport within the electrode, while the mechanical flexibility of MXene effectively mitigates the severe volume expansion of Sb2S3. As a result, the SbSMX composite exhibits a high capacity of 813 mA h g–1 at a current of 50 mA g–1, stable cycling performance with a capacity of 735 mA h g–1 after 100 cycles at 100 mA g–1 (88% retention), and excellent rate capability, achieving 466 mA h g–1 at a current of 3 A g–1.

NiCl 2 with high theoretical voltage and thermal decomposition temperature attracts much attention as cathode material for thermal batteries with the requirement of high power density, high energy density and long work time. Unfortunately, the practical utilization of thermal batteries with NiCl 2 cathode is limited by their poor electrochemical performance under large current, even with the conventional LiF-LiCl-LiBr all-lithium molten salt electrolyte which proposes ultrahigh lithium ion conductivity. In this work, an unexpected ionic exchange reaction between NiCl 2 and LiBr in LiF-LiCl-LiBr was found, which would be the main reason for the poor electrochemical behavior of thermal batteries with NiCl 2 cathode and LiF-LiCl-LiBr molten salt. On this basis, LiF-LiCl-Li 2 SO 4 , another all-lithium molten salt free of LiBr, was investigated as the new electrolyte for NiCl 2 cathode. For the single cell of Li(Si)/LiF-LiCl-Li 2 SO 4 /NiCl 2 , a discharge capacity of 377 mA h g −1 (with a cut-off voltage of 1.2 V) was achieved with large current density (500 mA cm −2 ) applied at 520°C, which is almost twice of that of Li(Si)/LiF-LiCl-LiBr/NiCl 2 (190 mA h g −1 ) at the same conditions.

A hydrothermal method was employed to synthesize nitrogen-doped porous carbon spheres (NPCSs), with tetraethoxysilane as the silica source, a phenolic resin , formed by the reacting 3-aminophenol with amphiphilic aliphatic aldehydes , as a carbon source and the self-assembly of imidazole cationic surfactant (1-dodecyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide) as a soft template. The effect of the carbon chain length of the fatty aldehyde on the morphology, pore parameters and electrochemical properties of the synthesized carbon nanomaterials was systematically investigated. Notably, the pyrene probe test shows that aliphatic aldehydes with different hydrophobic chain lengths are solubilized to the fence layer of the surfactant , which may increase the distance between the hydrophilic head groups of the surfactant and lead to collapsing of carbon sphere surfaces. Nonetheless, the synthesized N-doped porous carbon spheres exhibit interconnected pore structures , high surface area (1032–1040 m 2 g −1 ), large pore volume (0.82–1.30 cm 3 g −1 ), large pore size (3.73–6.32 nm) and abundant N content (5.86–6.94 at%). Moreover, Electrochemical tests in 6 M KOH demonstrated impressive electrochemical performance , with specific capacitance as high as 181 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 and an excellent rate capacity of 96% retention after 5000 cycles at 10 A g −1 .

We herein report a facile method for synthesizing a series of metal oxides from the mixture of oleylamine and metal nitrates with heating at 180 °C. Several diverse nanoparticles with various morphologies are gained expectedly: 16.5 nm Mn3O4 nano-capsules, 22 nm CoO nano-cubes, 35 nm NiO nano-flowers and 4 nm Fe3O4 quantum dots. This method is convenient for preparing the dispersed nanoparticles at mild reaction temperature with low-cost metal sources. As-prepared CoO nano-cubes are employed as the electrode material of a pseudocapacitor in terms of implementation. The specific capacitance reaches a stable level of 750 F g−1. This material also exhibits a superior performance in high rate capability and maintains an excellent stability during 9000 recycles. The asymmetric supercapacitor device with a maximum voltage of 1.7 V is fabricated using CoO nano-cubes as the positive and activated carbon as the negative electrode.

In this work, we choose NiO as an example of battery-type materials. We reveal that the electrochemical destabilization of NiO is attributed to the particle merging caused by electrochemical Ostwald ripening. Based on this understanding, we construct a particulate NiO-composed 2D structure coated by a thin carbon layer. Due to the prevention of particle merging by carbon coating and the increase of electrical and ionic conductivities by oxygen vacancies, this structure presents high electrochemical performance and an ultra-long cycling life. This carbon-coated 2D structure of NiO has a high specific capacity of 437.8 C g −1 at low current density and presents excellent high-rate performance (capacity retention of 66% at high current density). It exhibits ultra-high electrochemical stability (capacity retention of 93.5% after an ultra-long cycling of 100,000 cycles). This work demonstrates the success of carbon modification strategy for NiO, also may provide a significant outlet for transforming low-performance battery-type materials into high-performance materials.

A Li 2 MoO 4 -coated LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 O 2 cathode material was successfully synthesized by introducing Mo source during the lithium mixing process. The influence of Li 2 MoO 4 -coating on the structure, morphology, and electrochemical performance related to LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 O 2 has been studied. The results of the cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential voltage curve measurement show that the electrode polarization and irreversible capacity of the modified LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 O 2 are smaller than the virgin material. Meanwhile, the capacity retention of LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 O 2 increases from 64.6 to 90.59% after the 100th cycle at 1 C (1 C=200 mA g −1 ). Additionally, compared with the recycled materials, a thinner solid electrolyte interface (SEI) film was formed on the modified LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 O 2 material. The improvement of the electrochemical performance for LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 O 2 is mainly due to the existence of the Li 2 MoO 4 protective shell that improves the structural stability of the core material, avoids direct contact between the electrolyte and the active material, and suppresses the occurrence of side reaction.

Co-doped Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 nanosheets are synthesized via a facile hydrothermal method assisted by mechanical activation technology. The as-prepared Co-doped Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 is characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscopy. The morphology measurement shows that the Co-doped Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 still maintain the three-dimensional nanosheet structures and good crystallinity after Co doping. As we expected, Co-doped Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 exhibits higher initial discharge specific capacity, improved cycling performance, and impressive rate capability compared with pristine Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 nanosheets. Even under 20 °C charge/discharge rates, the initial discharge capacity of Co-doped Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 is up to 106 mAh g −1 . The electrochemical impedance spectra measurement further displays that the charge-transfer resistance of Co-doped Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 is much lower than that of pristine one after 20 cycles. The improved electrochemical performance of Co-doped Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 is mainly because the Co doping can effectively enlarge the size of the channel by altering the lattice parameter, which can facilitate Li + diffusion and electron transportation.

The tungsten-doped (0.5 and 1.0 mol%) LiNi0.88Co0.09Al0.03O2(NCA) cathode materials are manufactured to systematically examine the stabilizing effect of W-doping. The 1.0 mol% W-doped LiNi0.88Co0.09Al0.03O2(W1.0-NCA) cathodes deliver 173.5 mAh g−1even after 100 cycles at 1 C, which is 95.2% of the initial capacity. While the capacity retention of NCA cathodes cycled in identical conditions is 86.3%. The optimal performances of the W1.0-NCA could be ascribed to the suppression of impendence increase and the decrease in anisotropic volume change, as well as preventing the collapse of structures during cycling. These findings demonstrate that the W-doping considerably enhances the electrochemical performance of NCA, which has potential applications in the development of Ni-rich layered cathode materials that can display high capacity with superior cycling stability.Keywords:tungsten doping;phase transition;structural stability;electrochemical performance;LiNi0.88Co0.09Al0.03O2

Laser annealing is used for preparation of LiMn2O4. The electrochemical characterisation shows that the cycle performance of spinel LiMn2O4 is dependent on the power of the laser and the amount of lithium excess. X-ray diffraction is used to study the phase evolution of laser-annealed LiMn2O4. The morphology of LiMn2O4 particles is observed by scanning electron microscope. Electrochemical tests show that the initial capacity of the laser-annealed LiMn2O4 is less than the untreated LiMn2O4, but the cycle performance improved noticeably.

Long duration energy storage (LDES) technologies are vital for wide utilization of renewable energy sources and increasing the penetration of these technologies within energy infrastructures. Herein, we propose a low-cost alkaline all-iron flow battery by coupling ferri/ferro-cyanide redox couple with ferric/ferrous-gluconate complexes redox couple. The designed all-iron flow battery demonstrates a coulombic efficiency of above 99% and an energy efficiency of ∼83% at a current density of 80 mA cm −2 , which can continuously run for more than 950 cycles. Most importantly, the battery demonstrates a coulombic efficiency of more than 99.0% and an energy efficiency of ∼83% for a long duration (∼12, 16 and 20 h per cycle) charge/discharge process. Benefiting from the low cost of iron electrolytes, the overall cost of the all-iron flow battery system can be reached as low as $76.11 per kWh based on a 10 h system with a power of 9.9 kW. This work provides a new option for next-generation cost-effective flow batteries for long duration large scale energy storage.
