Carbon nanotube (CNT) has been intensively studied as supercapacitor electrode materials due to their high mechanical strength and excellent electrical conductivity. However, CNT with limited accessible surface area has low specific capacitance, which limits its application and development in supercapacitor. Herein, we have designed a thin N-doped porous carbon layer-modified CNT nanocomposite by template-free method. In this process, 3-aminophenol and formaldehyde rapidly self-assemble on the CNT in the presence of cationic surfactant CTAB, forming the composite of 3-aminophenol/formaldehyde (3-AF) resin and CNT. Due to the different polymerization degree of inside 3-AF resin, the soluble 3-AF resin oligomer was removed by acetone to form porous 3-AF resin and CNT@N-doped porous carbon (CNT@N-PC) was obtained by annealing process. The CNT@N-PC exhibited abundant porous structure, high specific surface area of 940 m 2 g −1 , excellent specific capacitance value of 224 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 and good cycle stability, demonstrating its potential as supercapacitor electrode materials.

In this communication, we designed and synthesized a novel calcium–organic framework and presented it as an anode material for sodium-ion batteries. The results show that it delivers a reversible capacity of higher than 140 mA h g−1 even after 300 cycles. The remarkable performance is attributed to the high structural stability and extremely low solubility of the calcium–organic framework in electrolytes.

Among the tin-based composites, stannous sulfide (SnS) is a prospective material to serve as an anode for lithium-ion batteries (LiBs) owing to its high theoretical-capacity, layer-structure for fast Li+ diffusion paths, and low toxicity. However, severe volume expansion/shrinkage exfoliates the electrode coating, leading to the severe loss of active materials. Herein, free volume was introduced into SnS to relieve the sequelae of volume expansion/shrinkage creatively, which effectively improved the cyclability of the SnS-based anode. The as-synthesized SnS/G-15% exhibited overall optimal electrochemical performances, i.e., the highest reversible capacity and best cyclability over pure SnS, SnS/G-5% and SnS/G-25%. Ex situ scanning electron microscopy images also illustrated that no cracks were generated in the cycled SnS/G-15% electrode. This work highlights an efficient and cost effective approach for the synthesis of long-cycle life and high-cyclability anodes.

We prepared Ti 1.4 V 0.6 Ni ribbons by arc-melting and subsequent melt-spinning techniques. Ti 1.4 V 0.6 Ni + x Mg ( x = 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5 and 3, wt.%) composite alloys were obtained by the mechanical ball-milling method. The structures and hydrogen storage properties of alloys were investigated. Ti 1.4 V 0.6 Ni + x Mg composite alloys contained icosahedral quasicrystalline phase, Ti 2 Ni-type phase, β-Ti solid-solution phase and metallic Mg. The electrochemical and gaseous hydrogen storage properties of alloys were improved with Mg addition. Ti 1.4 V 0.6 Ni + 2 Mg alloy showed maximum electrochemical discharge capacity of 282.5 mAh g −1 as well as copacetic high-rate discharge ability of 82.3% at the discharge current density of 240 mA g −1 compared with that of 30 mA g −1 , and the cycling life achieved above 200 mAh g −1 after 50 consecutive cycles of charging and discharging. The hydrogen absorption/desorption properties of Ti 1.4 V 0.6 Ni + x Mg ( x = 1, 2 and 3, wt.%) alloys were better than Ti 1.4 V 0.6 Ni. Ti 1.4 V 0.6 Ni + 3 Mg alloy also exhibited a favorable hydrogen absorption capacity of 1.53 wt.%. The improvement in the hydrogen storage characteristics caused by adding Mg may be ascribed to better hydrogen diffusion and anti-corrosion ability.

As important ingredients in lithium-ion battery, the Coulombic efficiency and power density greatly impact the electrochemical performances. Although recent literatures have reported nano-porous materials to enhance the specific capacities, intrinsic drawbacks such as poor initial Coulombic efficiency and low volumetric capacity could not be avoided. Herein, we propose a strategy to prepare carbon supported MoO 2 spheres used for lithium-ion battery with high volumetric capacity density. A high initial Coulombic efficiency of 76.5% is obtained due to limited solid electrolyte interface film formed on the exposed surface. Meantime, the sample with an optimal carbon content and a proper structural strength reveals a higher reversible capacity of 956 mA h g −1 than the theoretical capacity of crystalline MoO 2 (838 mA h g −1 ) and a high capacity retention ratio of 96.4% after 100 cycles at 0.5 A g −1 . And an effective compaction capacity density (under 5 MPa) of 670 mA h cm −3 of the spheres proves its potential value in practical applications.

The extended cyclability of LiNi 0.5 Mn 1.5 O 4 (LNMO) electrodes featuring different water-based binders is here reported. LNMO electrodes with guar gum (GG) binders show a relatively stable cycle performance at 0 °C and room temperature. However, water-based binders exhibit higher capacity fade than those with polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF) binder at 50 °C. Although PVdF binder has a lower adhesion force than CMC and GG; PVdF-based electrodes exhibit better capacity retention than those with water-based binders at 50 °C over 1000 cycles. Finally, operando Differential Electrochemical Mass Spectrometry (DEMS) experiments were carried out to analyze the evolution of volatile decomposition products formed over cycling at 1C and 30 °C of CMC-, GG- and PVdF-based LNMO electrodes. CO 2 and H 2 gas evolutions increase remarkably at both high temperatures and high potentials, i.e., ~ 4.7 V.

High-energy-density Li-ion batteries are urgently demanded in the development of electric vehicles and smart power grids. Owing to the high theoretical capacity, silicon (Si) has been considered as one of the most promising anode materials for next-generation Li-ion batteries. However, Si anode materials undergo huge volume change during charge and discharge processes, which severely impairs the cycle stability of Si anodes. Herein, to stabilize the Si anodes, a low-cost and eco-friendly network binder coupling hardness with softness was designed through in-situ cross-linking of guar gum (GG) and carboxylated acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber (XNBR). The rigid and high-viscosity GG functions as a skeleton to withstand the expansion of Si active materials, and the elastic XNBR can effectively buffer the residual stress. The mass ratio of GG and XNBR was systematically studied to achieve superior cycling stability of Si anodes. Especially, the Si@X4G6 electrode shows excellent cycle stability, remaining a capacity of 1929 mAh g − 1 at 1000 mA g − 1 after 100 cycles. Interestingly, such an effective strategy not only works well in Si anodes but also does well in Si/C anodes and LiFePO 4 cathodes.

The construction of effective nano-microstructures electrode has been a tireless pursuit in the energy storage field. Herein, Controllable construction of diversified morphologies NiCo 2 O 4 nanomaterials by tuning the dielectric constant and viscosity of the mixed solvent. We employed different solvent compositions as deionized water (DI), DI:Ethanol (1:1), DI: Isopropanol (1:1), DI: Propylene glycol (1:1), DI: Butanediol (1:1). In mixed aqueous solvents with low dielectric constants of ethanol and isopropanol, metal ions diffuse well and the nanomaterials tend to construct sheet-like nanostructures whereas high viscosity of the propylene glycol and butanediol solution will slow down the rate of metal ion diffusion, which only grow uni-directionally to form rod-like nanostructures. The formed ear-shaped NiCo 2 O 4 nanostructures in V propylene glycol : V H2O = 1 : 1 mixed solvent have a large specific surface area and provide more electrochemically active sites, which facilitates effectively access electrolytes and thus accelerates the redox reaction rate. The resulting NiCo 2 O 4 nanoears exhibits favorable capacity of 251 mAh g −1 and excellent rate performance with a 73.0% capacity retention at 20 A g −1 . More importantly, the asymmetric supercapacitors assembled with the preferred NiCo 2 O 4 nanoears and active carbon (AC) reveal excellent electrochemical performance at operating potential of 1.6 V, great specific capacity (58.0 mAh g −1 ), energy and power density of 46.4 Wh kg −1 at 801 W kg −1 and a specific capacity retention rate of 90.7% after 5000 cycles. This work provides a new perspective for the controllable construction of new micro-nanostructure materials.

It is recognized that the thermal performances of the molten salt based nanocomposite can be significantly enhanced. However, there were rare investigations regarding its stability under practical operating thermal environments . In this study, both of the specific heat capacity and thermal diffusivity of the molten salt based nanocomposite were experimentally evaluated under various operating conditions, including that of exposure to constant high temperature and low-high temperature circulation. The typical solar salt based nanofluid was prepared via the modified two-step method. The selected nanoparticle was SiO 2 with an average diameter of 30 nm. Experimental results indicated that both the heat treatments could significantly decrease the thermophysical properties , which would result in poor thermal stability. In comparison with the samples exposing to constant high temperature, the thermal cycled samples showed a more stable thermal property. Further investigations on the SiO 2 particle morphology transition in the process of the heat treatments revealed that the impact of both temperature field and natural convection on particle agglomeration should be responsible for the decrease in thermophysical properties of nanofluid.

Transition to aqueous electrode fabrication of lithium ion batteries (LIBs) with green binder is certainly profitable and imperative in terms of economic benefit and environmental wellness. However, aqueous processing of cathode in LIB, especially the ternary LiNi x Co y Mn z O 2 (NCM), is still problematic and novel water-soluble binder should be developed to boost the electrochemical performances of cathode. In this regard, commercially available white latex (WL), cooperating with CMC (carboxymethyl cellulose), is employed as water-processable binder mixture for manufacturing NCM cathode. Interestingly, the prepared NCM cathode assisted by WL/CMC mixture exhibits improved electrochemical performances including better initial reversible capacity of 161.7 mAh g −1 at 0.5 C current density, long-term cyclability with a reversible capacity of 155 mAh g −1 along with high-capacity retention of around 96% after cycling 200 times, and even excellent rate capability, which are superior to those of the conventional counterpart base on polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF). Moreover, the NCM|graphite full cell, which is absolutely based on this novel WL binder, also demonstrates the outstanding electrochemical behaviors.

All-solid-state Li–S batteries (ASSLSBs) offer an opportunity to realize both high energy density , safety and reliability, via eliminating the polysulfides shuttle effect and flammable liquid electrolyte. However, the sluggish kinetics of S and Li 2 S solid conversion results in low discharge capacity at high active material loading, which is critical for ASSLSBs to implement the high energy density potential. Herein, nitrogen doped-carbon (NC) coated Li 2 S (Li 2 S@NC composite) is developed for ASSLSBs that highly improves electrochemical performance. A thin and uniform nitrogen doped-carbon layer is coated on Li 2 S via pyrolysis deposition approach to prepare Li 2 S@NC. The as obtained Li 2 S@NC composite exhibits greatly enhanced electrochemical performance with high reversible capacity, high coulombic efficiency of ~100%, good rate capability and cycling stability. Particularly, outstanding electrochemical performance with high capacity of 931 mAh g −1 can also be obtained at both high Li 2 S content (43%) and high areal Li 2 S loading (10.4 mg cm −2 ).
