The lithium–sulfur (Li–S) battery is an appealing choice for the next-generation high-energy-density energy storage systems . However, side reactions between lithium polysulfides (LiPSs) and Li metal anode cause the growth of Li dendrites, loss of active materials, and safety issues, which severely hinders the practical application of Li–S batteries. Constructing a protection layer on the surface of Li anode is an effective strategy to shield LiPSs and regulate lithium uniform deposition in Li–S batteries. Herein, we design and fabricate a lithiated Nafion protective layer to alleviate the side reactions between LiPSs and the Li anode and guide uniform deposition of Li, in which, their mechanism is investigated. The optimal protective layer effectively protects the Li anode from the detrimental side reactions, which boosts the stability of the Li anode. Li–Li and Li-stainless steel cells with 4 M [S] Li 2 S 8 electrolyte can last for more than 400 cycles and 100 cycles at current density of 1 mA cm −2 . A Li–S full cell also exhibits a high reversible capacity of 791.5 mA h g −1 after 250 cycles at 0.5 C. This work reveals the vital role of the artificial protective layer in enhancing the stability of the Li anode in Li–S batteries.

As a negative electrode material, the main drawbacks of Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 (LTO) are its low electric conductivity and poor Li-ion diffusion coefficient. Fortunately, elements modification to address these problems is an effective method. Herein, we firstly report Ni and F co-modified LTO material which is synthesized via a solid-state reaction. Powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were conducted to investigate the structure and morphology. Afterwards, we surprisingly find that Ni and F co-modification can reduce the overall charge transfer resistance of LTO for part of Ti 4+ converts into Ti 3+ and Ni 2+ ions supply the charge carriers. When test in battery, a superior discharge capacity of 236.1 mAh g −1 at 0.036 A g −1 is obtained, much higher than that of pristine LTO (196.9 mAh g −1 ). Furthermore, it still retains a discharge capacity of 174.6 mAh g −1 after 200 cycles at 0.18 A g −1 and exhibits an excellent rate performance.

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.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are adopted to modify ZnCo 2 O 4 (ZCO) electrode, and a novel porous polyhedral structure ZCO/CNTs composites are prepared by a facile and scalable hydrothermal process, and the pure ZCO with cubic structure is also synthesized for comparison. The as-prepared materials are characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). The results demonstrate that the introduced of CNTs has great effects on the nanostructure and electrochemical performance of the samples. The CNTs among the polyhedral structure ZCO/CNTs composites can provide better mechanical robustness, more contact between Li + and electrodes, and more effective electron transmission than the pure ZCO with cubic structure. When tested as anode materials for lithium ion batteries , the ZCO/CNTs composites exhibit a high initial coulombic efficiency of 83.9%, a high specific capacity of ∼864.6 mAh g −1 at a current rate of 100 mA g −1 after 150 cycles, as well as a good rate capability at elevated current rates, such as, ∼924.3 and ∼605.7 mAh g −1 at current rates of 500 and 2000 mA g −1 , respectively. This work would be meaningful in the preparation of complex oxides/carbon composites with porous nanostructure as anodes for LIBs.

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.

Biomass wastes or biomass derived hard carbon materials with the advantages of green, as well as economic and high reversible capacity have became the promising anode materials for sodium ion batteries (SIBs). Despite this, the poor rate capability hinders their further development. Here, we synthesized lath-shaped hard carbon materials derived from peanut shells by a two-step approach, namely a hydrothermal pretreatment for different treatment time first, and then a carbonized process at 800 °C. Morphology and structural characterizations (SEM, XRD and Raman) prove the hydrothermal pretreatment has a great influence on morphology transformation, the layer spacing, as well as the defect concentration which can enhance the adsorption sites of Na + and shorten the transport route of sodium ions . The PSDHCs-4 (hydrothermal treatment for 4 h) electrode can deliver the highest reversible capacity of 256 ± 5 mAh g −1 , and show the best capacity retention of 97 ± 2% at the current rate of 0.1 C after 100 cycles. More importantly, PSDHCs-4 electrode shows the excellent rate performances with a reversible capacity of 261, 244, 206, 163, 125, and 100 mAh g −1 at the current rates of 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 and 5.0 C, respectively. These remarkable electrochemical properties indicate that PSDHCs-4 material should be a promising anode material for SIBs.

Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) have gained more and more interest for grid-level energy storage applications compared with current lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). In this paper, well-uniform and dispersed spindle-shaped NiCo 2 O 4 particles were synthesized by solvothermal method, and then graphene-encapsulated NiCo 2 O 4 (NiCo 2 O 4 @G) was formed core-shell nanostructures , which greatly enhanced the electronic and ionic (electro-active) conduction and also effectively buffering to accommodate the strain. Benefit from its structure feature, the prepared NiCo 2 O 4 @G core-shell nanostructures composite shows good cycling with a capacity of up to ∼400 mAh g −1 (100 mA g −1 ) in 100 cycles for NIBs anode. The facile synthesis process and excellent SIBs behaviors in this paper are expected to be extended in developing other anode materials in battery system.

The preparation and characterization of Pb 1- x Ba x Li 2 Ti 6 O 14 ( x = 0, 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1) as anode materials for lithium ion batteries are investigated in this research. The structure, morphology and electrochemical properties are compared with each other by changing the Pb/Ba atomic ratio in Pb 1- x Ba x Li 2 Ti 6 O 14 . It can be observed that each sample shows the same orthorhombic structure with Cmca space group. Moreover, it can also be found that the working potential, conductivity, cycling and rate performances of as-received samples gradually change along with the evolution of x in Pb 1- x Ba x Li 2 Ti 6 O 14 ( x = 0, 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1). Electrochemical evaluation shows that the operating potential of the as-received sample gradually decreases with increasing x value in Pb 1- x Ba x Li 2 Ti 6 O 14 and its initial charge capacity increases reversely. Moreover, different Pb/Ba atomic ratio also brings different cycling stability for Pb 1- x Ba x Li 2 Ti 6 O 14 . Especially for Pb 3/4 Ba 1/4 Li 2 Ti 6 O 14 , it presents better electrochemical properties than other samples. After 120 cycles, the reversible capacity of Pb 3/4 Ba 1/4 Li 2 Ti 6 O 14 is maintained at 129.7 mAh g −1 with capacity retention of 88.3%. In addition, its electrochemical reversibility is also demonstrated by in-situ X-ray investigation.

Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs), as next-generation energy storage devices, can be made by a similar production process to lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). The key to accelerating their commercialization is to discover appropriate high-performance electrode materials with low cost, nontoxicity, and simple synthetic features. Herein, layered-structure Na 2 Ti 3 O 7 , with the advantages of appropriate charge/discharge plateaus, superior stability, environmental friendliness, and ease of preparation using cheap raw materials, is selected for assembly in full-cell battery packs to evaluate its suitability for practical application. When evaluated in a coin cell, it has a capacity of 77.2 mAh g −1 at 1 A g −1 after 10 000 cycles with capacity retention of 99.9%, demonstrating its excellent stability. In the case of a soft-pack battery, it retains 22.3 mAh g −1 at 0.1 A g −1 and 18.1 mAh g −1 at 0.05 A g −1 after 50 cycles. After cycling, there is no sodium dendrite formation or active material shedding, further confirming its safety in practical application. Therefore, Na 2 Ti 3 O 7 as another intercalation/deintercalation mechanism material has application potential in the future.

One-dimensional porous Fe 2 O 3 nanotubes with 2 µm length, 220 nm outer diameter and 65 nm wall thickness were firstly synthesized via a low temperature hydrothermal method followed by thermal treatment. As advanced anode for lithium ion batteries , porous Fe 2 O 3 nanotubes exhibit obviously enhanced electrochemical properties in terms of lithium storage capacity (1050.1 mA h g −1 at 100 mA g −1 rate), initial coulombic efficiency (78.4%), cycle performances (90.6% capacity retention at 50th cycle), and rate capability (613.7 mA h g −1 at 1000 mA g −1 rate). This enhancement could be attributed to the one-dimensional nanostructure of porous Fe 2 O 3 nanotubes which could increase contact area between electrolyte and active materials, shorten migration path for Li + ions and electrons, and accommodate the volume variations via additional void space during cycling.
