With the upgrading of mobile and portable electronic devices, people have higher requirements for the performance of batteries , and anode materials, as one of the factors affecting the electrochemical performance of lithium ion storage, have become a hot spot of widespread concern. This paper illustrates a creative and effective strategy to synthesize four different NiCo-MOFs materials. After studying their respective unique structural features, it was found that, unlike the topologies of NiCo-PTA (terephthalic acid) and NiCo-H 3 BTC (trimesic acid), the substitution of Ni and Co for N occurred in NiCo-EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) and NiCo-BI (benzimidazole). Electrochemical studies show that NiCo-PTA, NiCo-EDTA, NiCo-H 3 BTC, and NiCo-BI all have high initial discharge specific capacities of 1770.41576.11905.1 and 1877.5 mAh/g at a current density of 100 mA/g. When NiCo-EDTA and NiCo-BI are cycled at a current density of 100 mA/g, the specific capacity decreases more slowly than NiCo-PTA and NiCo-H 3 BTC. Similarly, the capacity of NiCo-PTA and NiCo-H 3 BTC almost began to rise at the 70th cycle, the capacity of NiCo-BI began to rise at the 67th cycle, and NiCo-EDTA showed the slowest rise at the 78th cycle, they all showed excellent cycle performance.

Stretchable current collectors are essential components of deformable energy-storage devices. Deposition of a conductive layer on an elastomer surface is a common fabrication strategy for stretchable current collectors, however, facing the challenges of reducing the tensile resistance and film thickness. In this study, by integrating Ti3C2Tx nanosheets with MWCNTs, the authors deposited a staggered conductive network on the surface of an elastic styrene–ethylene–butylene–styrene (SEBS) film and thus created a stretchable hybrid conductor (TMS). The TMS current collector exhibits a low sheet resistance of about 31.3 Ω □−1 and shows relatively minor changes under stretching states. The current collector with a thickness of 144 μm possesses a strain ability of 100% and can recover to the original state when the stress is withdrawn. Besides, the TMS-based coin cell using V2O5 and LiMn2O4 as active materials achieves a reversible capacity of 85.5 mA h g−1 and delivers a high capacity retention of 95.4% (5C, 900 cycles), comparable to performance with the traditional rigid Ti current collectors (97.1%). Furthermore, the assembled coplanar batteries with a thickness of 366 μm can work under bending and stretching states with stable electrochemical performance. Moreover, the power supply tests under various working states demonstrated the ability of the stretchable LIBs to deliver stable power to a red LED, which shows a promising approach for developing thin and deformable energy-storage systems.

Silicon (Si) is a highly promising anode candidate for lithium-ion batteries. However, the huge volume change of Si during the lithiation/delithiation process might cause serious structural damage, thereby restricting its potential application. Herein, a novel self-standing electrode consisting of porous carbon coated Si (Si@p-C) nanoparticles and carbon fibers (Si@p-C/p-CF) is prepared by a facile electrospinning technique. The three-dimensional carbon fiber framework derived from polyacrylonitrile serves as the support for self-standing electrode, which exhibits superior flexibility and satisfactory electrolyte penetration ability. The porous carbon matrix on the surface of Si nanoparticles can effectively buffer the volume expansion of Si during cycling and prevent direct contact between Si and the electrolyte. Attributed to these merits, the obtained (Si@p-C) 0.5 /p-CF electrode exhibits outstanding cycling stability with a specific capacity of 940 mAh g −1 at 0.2 A g −1 after 400 cycles, delivering great application potential.

Reducing the thickness of inorganic solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) can improve both the gravimetric/volumetric energy density due to the decreased weight/thickness of the cells. Unfortunately, the thickness of inorganic SSEs by the powder-pressing method is 500–1000 µm, which brings large internal resistance. In this work, an ultrathin SSE membrane is prepared via a simple solution-infusion method using a ZrO 2 nanowire as the skeleton and Li 3 InCl 6 as the Li-ion conductor. This membrane can be self-standing with a minimum thickness of 25 µm, less than 1/20 in thickness of that electrolyte by the powder-pressing method. Attributed to a high Li 3 InCl 6 loading, the membrane remains a high conductivity. When used as the electrolyte in solid cells, such the membrane can enable a much-reduced resistance compared to the traditional SSE layer. Due to the fact that the electrolyte membrane does not contain any organic components, it exhibits good thermal stability. Benefiting from the soft nature of the halide SSEs, the membrane, without any modification, can close contact with the composite cathode. The LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 O 2 /LiIn cell exhibits a high reversible capacity and the capacity retention is above 80% after 200 cycles.

Ferroelectric Sr 0.6 Ba 0.4 Nb 2 O 6 (SBN) shows typical unfilled tetragonal tungsten bronze structure where 1/6 A sites and all C sites are unoccupied. The presence of such structural vacancy provides the possibility to further modulate the crystal structure and electrical properties. In this work, alkali ions (Li + , Na + , K + ) doped SBN ceramics have been fabricated via solid-solution reaction method. In general, each doping promotes the crystal structure evolves from unfilled toward filled tungsten bronze. However, the different doping ion radius causes the differences in occupying initial structural vacancies, resulting in significantly different electrical properties, Li + doping enhances relaxor characteristic whereas Na + and K + doping lead to normal ferroelectric behavior, accompanying an increase in Curie temperature ( T c ) from 36 °C of SBN to 40, 212, 148 °C of Li + , Na + and K + doping, respectively. Benefiting from improved relaxor degree and high density, the Li + doped SBN displays a good energy storage performance. Since the ratio of Sr/Ba and (Sr + Ba)/Nb has not been changed, this work presents direct evidence for the effect of structural vacancy on crystal structure and properties, as well as inspiration for further work on unfilled tungsten bronze.

The application of Li metal anode in high energy density batteries is hindered by uncontrolled dendrites growth and rapid capacity decline. In this study, 4-aminobenzoic acid (4-ABA) is used as a multifunctional electrolyte additive to effectively stabilise Li anode and extend the cycling life of LiNi 0.8 Co 0.15 Al 0.05 O 2 (NCA) cathode in carbonate electrolyte. It is found that 4-ABA facilitates the desolvation of Li + and increases the Li + transference number, leading to an increase in Li + flux on the surface of the Li anode, and finally the growth of Li dendrites is inhibited. The cycling performance of Li||Li symmetric cell is extended from < 400 h to more than 600 h at 1 mA cm −2 with a capacity of 1 mAh cm −2 . For the NCA cathode, 4-ABA is involved in the formation of a thin and uniform cathode electrolyte interphase (CEI) layer, which is conducive to inhibiting the corrosion of electrolyte on NCA cathode and reducing the dissolution of the transition metals Ni and Co. Thus, the electrochemical performances of the Li||NCA cell with the electrolyte containing 0.5% 4-ABA are significantly improved. In particular, the discharge capacity of the cells with the electrolyte containing 0.5% 4-ABA are still 164.9 and 150.7 mAh g −1 compared to only 126.3 and 116.0 mAh/g for the cells with the baseline electrolyte after 200 cycles at 1C and 5C. This study provides a simple and effective strategy for improving the electrochemical performances of Li anodes and NCA cathodes by optimising the electrolyte.

The solid/liquid Li-S battery shows promise in solving both the polysulfide “shuttle effect” in liquid batteries and the interfacial contact in all-solid-state batteries. However, increasing the interfacial stability of the electrolyte and the solid electrolyte remains a challenge in the solid/liquid batteries. In this work, a high ionic conductivity Li 3 PS 4 solution is synthesized using a nano-Li 2 S precursor, which is then utilized to form a solid electrolyte Li 3 PS 4 @Li 7 P 3 S 11 via dip-coating. The Li 3 PS 4 @Li 7 P 3 S 11 can form a dense protective interface Li 3 PS 4 -DME with the DOL/DME and DME electrolyte. This interface can prevent direct contact between the solid electrolyte and the electrolytes, efficiently inhibiting further solid electrolyte decomposition. The lithium symmetric battery with the solid electrolyte Li 3 PS 4 @Li 7 P 3 S 11 is cycled stably for 1000 h, at a current density of 0.38 mA cm −2 and a capacity of 1.51 mA h cm −2 . The Li-S battery with the solid electrolyte Li 3 PS 4 @Li 7 P 3 S 11 can cycle stably for 300 cycles at 0.2C with a capacity of 600 mA h g −1 remaining.

As a graphite-like material, the LiBC can deliver a high capacity up to 500 mA h g–1 in Li-ion batteries, which is dependent on the carbon precursor, the high-temperature treatment, and the lithium insufficiency. However, the underlying mechanism is still not clear for the electrochemical reactions of LiBC. In this work, the pristine LiBC was reacted with aqueous solutions of different alkalinity, which was delithiated chemically and retained the layered structure. According to the XPS and NMR results, the B–B bond might be produced through the aqueous reaction or the initial charge process, which can be oxidized (charged) and reduced (discharged) in the electrochemical measurements. In the Li-ion battery, the reversible capacity of LiBC increases evidently with the alkalinity of aqueous solution and significantly rises to a similar value of ca. 285 mA h g–1 under 200 cycles. Therefore, the specific capacity of LiBC should be contributed by the active sites of B–B bonds, which can be significantly increased through the reaction with the hydroxyl ions, and this strategy might be adopted to activate more graphite-like materials.

The development of lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries necessitates the creation of efficient cathode materials . By simultaneous phosphating and sulfurating, a spindle-shaped CoP-Co 3 S 4 heterostructure sulfur cathode substrate made up of numerous tiny needle-like structures is created. The benefits of CoP with outstanding conductivity and Co 3 S 4 with great adsorption capacity are combined in the as-prepared CoP-Co 3 S 4 heterostructures, which achieve efficient capture-diffusion-transformation of polysulfides at the interface. The CoP accelerates the redox kinetics toward polysulfide conversion, and the Co 3 S 4 has a considerable adsorption power toward polysulfides. The quick nucleation of polysulfide and increased capture effectiveness are aided by the quick transfer of polysulfide from the Co 3 S 4 surface to the CoP surface. As a result, the CoP-Co 3 S 4 @S cathode battery with a 1.1 mg cm −2 sulfur load achieves a high initial capacity of 1516.9 mAh g −1 at 0.2 C and maintains that capacity after 100 cycles at 750.1 mAh g −1 . After 300 cycles, even the 565.1 mAh g −1 specific capacity can be attained at 1 C.

Metal–CO2 batteries, especially Li–CO2 and Na–CO2 batteries, are regarded as ideal new-generation energy storage systems owing to their high energy density and extraordinary CO2 capture capability. However, the advancement of metal–CO2 batteries is still at an early stage. The problems caused by accumulation of carbonates during charge–discharge cycles, such as large polarization and poor reversibility, restrict their practical application. Therefore, designing efficient catalysts is crucial for promoting the decomposition of carbonate to improve the electrochemical performance of metal–CO2 batteries. Herein, we first adopted sea urchin-like γ-MnO2 as the cathode material for Li/Na–CO2 batteries. Benefiting from the unique structure and excellent catalytic activity of γ-MnO2, the as-prepared Li–CO2 and Na–CO2 batteries can achieve low overpotentials of 1.28 and 1.36 V, respectively, at a current density of 100 mA g–1 with a cutoff capacity of 1000 mA h g–1. The overpotentials are lower than those of most of the state-of-the-art catalysts in previous reports. After 100 and 50 cycles of Li–CO2 and Na–CO2 batteries, respectively, their charging termination voltages remain at around 4.1 and 3.9 V, respectively; such a low charging platform indicates the excellent catalytic activity of the γ-MnO2 cathode on the discharge products. Our findings offer a promising guideline to design efficient electrocatalysts for high-performance metal–CO2 batteries.

Al-Li alloy was prepared by electrodeposition on solid aluminum electrode in a urea-LiCl (77.5:22.5, mol%) molten salt system at 353–393 K. The results of cyclic voltammetry and chronopotentiometry show that underpotential deposition of Li occurs on the Al electrode and forms phases of Al(α) and AlLi(δ) which are confirmed by XRD measurements. Scanning electron microscopy observation of deposits indicates that Al-Li alloy with the thickness of 143 µm was obtained by potentiostatic electrolysis at −0.5 V vs. Li+/Li. The Li content in the alloy obtained at 373 K can reach 6.9 wt%. Galvanostatic electrolysis at 20 A demonstrated that Al-Li alloy coating on aluminum plate can be obtained from urea-LiCl electrolyte at 373 K in the atmosphere.

Recycling and reusing spent lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have gained a lot of attention in recent years, both ecologically and commercially. The carbon nanotube-loaded CoFe2O4(CoFe2O4@CNTs) composite was made using a solvothermal technique utilizing wasted LIBs as the starting material and carbon nanotubes as support, and it was used as an efficient peroxymonosulfate (PMS, HSO5−) activator to degrade chloroquine phosphate (CQP). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), an energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were utilized to characterize the physical and chemical properties of the catalyst generated. The impacts of CoFe2O4@CNTs dosage, PMS concentration, reaction temperature, initial pH value, starting CQP concentration, and co-existing ions have undergone extensive experimental testing. In comparison to bare CoFe2O4, the CoFe2O4@CNTs demonstrated increased catalytic activity, which might be attributed to their super electron transport capacity and large surface area. In ideal conditions, the mineralization efficiency and removal efficiency of 10 mg/L CQP approached 33 and 98.7%, respectively. By employing external magnets, the CoFe2O4@CNTs catalyst may be simply recycled and reused several times. The potential reaction mechanism in the CoFe2O4@CNTs/PMS system was also investigated. In summary, this study indicates that CoFe2O4@CNTs generated from spent lithium-ion batteries have a high potential in PMS activation for CQP and other pollutant degradation.Keywords:spent lithium-ion batteries;peroxymonosulfate activation;CoFe2O4@CNTs;chloroquine phosphate;recycle
