文摘Silicon stands as a key anode material in lithium-ion battery ascribing to its high energy density.Nevertheless,the poor rate performance and limited cycling life remain unresolved through conventional approaches that involve carbon composites or nanostructures,primarily due to the un-controllable effects arising from the substantial formation of a solid electrolyte interphase(SEI)during the cycling.Here,an ultra-thin and homogeneous Ti doping alumina oxide catalytic interface is meticulously applied on the porous Si through a synergistic etching and hydrolysis process.This defect-rich oxide interface promotes a selective adsorption of fluoroethylene carbonate,leading to a catalytic reaction that can be aptly described as“molecular concentration-in situ conversion”.The resultant inorganic-rich SEI layer is electrochemical stable and favors ion-transport,particularly at high-rate cycling and high temperature.The robustly shielded porous Si,with a large surface area,achieves a high initial Coulombic efficiency of 84.7%and delivers exceptional high-rate performance at 25 A g^(−1)(692 mAh g^(−1))and a high Coulombic efficiency of 99.7%over 1000 cycles.The robust SEI constructed through a precious catalytic layer promises significant advantages for the fast development of silicon-based anode in fast-charging batteries.

文摘A tunable oxidization and reduction strategy was proposed to directly regenerate spent LiFePO_(4)/C cathode materials by oxidizing excessive carbon powders with the addition of FePO_(4).Experimental results indicate that spent LiFePO_(4)/C cathode materials with good performance can be regenerated by roasting at 650℃ for 11 h with the addition ofLi_(2)CO_(3),FePO_(4),V_(2)O_(5),and glucose.V_(2)O_(5) is added to improve the cycle performance of regenerated cathode materials.Glucose is used to revitalize the carbon layers on the surface of spent LiFePO_(4)/C particles for improving their conductivity.The regenerated V-doped LiFePO_(4)/C shows an excellent electrochemical performance with the discharge specific capacity of 161.36 mA·h/g at 0.2C,under which the capacity retention is 97.85%after 100 cycles.

文摘For the diagnostics and health management of lithium-ion batteries,numerous models have been developed to understand their degradation characteristics.These models typically fall into two categories:data-driven models and physical models,each offering unique advantages but also facing limitations.Physics-informed neural networks(PINNs)provide a robust framework to integrate data-driven models with physical principles,ensuring consistency with underlying physics while enabling generalization across diverse operational conditions.This study introduces a PINN-based approach to reconstruct open circuit voltage(OCV)curves and estimate key ageing parameters at both the cell and electrode levels.These parameters include available capacity,electrode capacities,and lithium inventory capacity.The proposed method integrates OCV reconstruction models as functional components into convolutional neural networks(CNNs)and is validated using a public dataset.The results reveal that the estimated ageing parameters closely align with those obtained through offline OCV tests,with errors in reconstructed OCV curves remaining within 15 mV.This demonstrates the ability of the method to deliver fast and accurate degradation diagnostics at the electrode level,advancing the potential for precise and efficient battery health management.

文摘The implementation of ultrahigh-Ni cathodes in high-energy lithium-ion batteries(LIBs)is constrained by significant structural and interfacial degradation during cycling.In this study,doping-induced surface restructuring in ultrahigh-nickel cathode materials is rapidly facilitated through an ultrafast Joule heating method.Density functional theory(DFT)calculations,synchrotron X-ray absorption spectroscopy(XAS),and single-particle force test confirmed the establishment of a stable crystal framework and lattice oxygen,which mitigated H2-H3 phase transitions and improved structural reversibility.Additionally,the Sc doping process exhibits a pinning effect on the grain boundaries,as shown by scanning transmission electron microscopy(STEM),enhancing Li~+diffusion kinetics and decreasing mechanical strain during cycling.The in situ development of a cation-mixing layer at grain boundaries also creates a robust cathode/electrolyte interphase,effectively reducing interfacial parasitic reactions and transition metal dissolution,as validated by STEM and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry(TOF-SIMS).These synergistic modifications reduce particle cracking and surface/interface degradation,leading to enhanced rate capability,structural integrity,and thermal stability.Consequently,the optimized Sc-modified ultrahigh-Ni cathode(Sc-1)exhibits 93.99%capacity retention after 100 cycles at 1 C(25℃)and87.06%capacity retention after 100 cycles at 1 C(50℃),indicating excellent cycling and thermal stability.By presenting a one-step multifunctional modification approach,this research delivers an extensive analysis of the mechanisms governing the structure,microstructure,and interface properties of nickel-rich layered cathode materials(NCMs).These results underscore the potential of ultrahigh-Ni cathodes as viable candidates for advanced lithium-ion batteries(LIBs)in next-generation electric vehicles(EVs).

文摘Nowadays,new energy technologies are developing rapidly,energy storage systems are widely used,and lithium-ion batteries occupy a dominant position among them.Therefore,it is also very important to ensure their performance,safety and service life through thermal management technology.In this paper,the causes of thermal runaway of lithium batteries are reviewed firstly,and three commonly used thermal management technologies,namely,air cooling,liquid cooling and phase change material cooling,are compared according to relevant literature in recent years.Air cooling technology has been widely studied because of its simple structure and low cost,but its temperature control effect is poor.Liquid cooling technology takes away heat through the circulation of liquid medium,which has a good cooling effect,but the system is relatively complex.Phase change material(PCM)cooling technology uses the high latent heat of PCM to absorb and re-lease heat,which can effectively reduce the peak temperature of a battery and improve the temperature uniformity,but the low thermal conductivity and liquid leakage are its main problems.To sum up,lithium-ion battery thermal management technology is moving towards a more efficient,safer and cost-effective direction.Coupled cooling systems,such as those combining liquid cooling and phase change material cooling,show great potential.Future research will continue to explore new materials and technologies to meet the growing demands of society and the market for lithium-ion battery perfor-mance and safety.
文摘Lithium-ion batteries(LIBs)are an electrochemical energy storage technology that has been widely used for portable electrical devices,electric vehicles,and grid storage,etc.To satisfy the demand for user convenience especially for electric vehicles,the development of a fast-charging technology for LIBs has become a critical focus.In commercial LIBs,the slow kinetics of Li+intercalation into the graphite anode from the electrolyte solution is known as the main restriction for fast-charging.We summarize the recent advances in obtaining fast-charging graphite-based anodes,mainly involving modifications of the electrolyte solution and graphite anode.Specifically,strategies for increasing the ionic conductivity and regulating the Li+solvation/desolvation state in the electrolyte solution,as well as optimizing the fabrication and the intrinsic activity of graphite-based anodes are discussed in detail.This review considers practical ways to obtain fast Li+intercalation kinetics into a graphite anode from the electrolyte as well as analysing progress in the commercialization of fast-charging LIBs.

文摘As a negative electrode material for lithium-ion batteries,silicon monoxide(SiO)suffers from dramatic volume changes during cycling,causing excessive stress within the electrode and resulting in electrode deformation and fragmentation.This ultimately leads to a decrease in cell capacity.The trends of volume expansion and capacity change of the SiO/graphite(SiO/C)composite electrode during cycling were investigated via in situ expansion monitoring.First,a series of expansion test schemes were designed,and the linear relationship between negative electrode expansion and cell capacity degradation was quantitatively analyzed.Then,the effects of different initial pressures on the long-term cycling performance of the cell were evaluated.Finally,the mechanism of their effects was analyzed by scanning electron microscope.The results show that after 50 cycles,the cell capacity decreases from 2.556 mAh to 1.689 mAh,with a capacity retention ratio(CRR)of only 66.08%.A linear relationship between the capacity retention ratio and thickness expansion was found.Electrochemical measurements and scanning electron microscope images demonstrate that intense stress inhibits the lithiation of the negative electrode and that the electrode is more susceptible to irreversible damage during cycling.Overall,these results reveal the relationship between the cycling performance of SiO and the internal pressure of the electrode from a macroscopic point of view,which provides some reference for the application of SiO/C composite electrodes in lithium-ion batteries.
文摘Metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)are import-ant as possible energy storage materials.Nitrogen-doped iron-cobalt MOFs were synthesized by a one-pot solvo-thermal method using CoCl_(3)·6H_(2)O and FeCl_(3)·6H_(2)O dis-solved in N,N-dimethylformamide,and were converted into Fe-Co embedded in N-doped porous carbon polyhedra by pyrolysis in a nitrogen atmosphere.During pyrolysis,the or-ganic ligands transformed into N-doped porous carbon which improved their structural stability and also their electrical contact with other materials.The Fe and Co are tightly bound together because of their encapsulation by the carbon nitride and are well dispersed in the carbon matrix,and improve the material’s conductivity and stability and provide additional capacity.When used as the anode for lithium-ion batteries,the material gives an initial capacity of up to 2230.7 mAh g^(-1)and a reversible capa-city of 1146.3 mAh g^(-1)is retained after 500 cycles at a current density of 0.5 A g^(-1),making it an excellent candidate for this purpose.
文摘Electrospinning technology has emerged as a promising method for fabricating flexible lithium-ion batter-ies(FLIBs)due to its ability to create materials with desir-able properties for energy storage applications.FLIBs,which are foldable and have high energy densities,are be-coming increasingly important as power sources for wear-able devices,flexible electronics,and mobile energy applica-tions.Carbon materials,especially carbon nanofibers,are pivotal in improving the performance of FLIBs by increas-ing electrical conductivity,chemical stability,and surface area,as well as reducing costs.These materials also play a significant role in establishing conducting networks and im-proving structural integrity,which are essential for extend-ing the cycle life and enhancing the safety of the batteries.This review considers the role of electrospinning in the fabrication of critical FLIB components,with a particular emphasis on the integration of carbon materials.It explores strategies to optimize FLIB performance by fine-tuning the electrospinning para-meters,such as electric field strength,spinning rate,solution concentration,and carbonization process.Precise control over fiber properties is crucial for enhancing battery reliability and stability during folding and bending.It also highlights the latest research findings in carbon-based electrode materials,high-performance electrolytes,and separator structures,discussing the practical challenges and opportunities these materials present.It underscores the significant impact of carbon materials on the evolution of FLIBs and their potential to shape future energy storage technologies.

文摘Metal-organic frameworks(MOFs),with their ultrahigh specific surface area,uniformly distributed pores,and tunable structures,are promising candidates for next-generation active electrode materials in lithium-ion batteries(LIBs).However,their application is hindered by poor cycling stability due to structural collapse during charge-discharge cycles.To address this issue,we developed an alloy and multi-solvent thermal method strategy to synthesize Co/Zn bimetallic MOFs based on Naphthalenetetracarboxylic acid(NTCA).The resulting petal-like Co/Zn-NTCA MOF demonstrates outstanding electrochemical performance.The incorporation of zinc ions not only significantly enhances cycling stability but also markedly increases the specific capacity of the anode material.At a current density of 200 mA·g^(-1),the Co/Zn(2:1)-NTCA MOF demonstrated an impressive reversible capacity of 956 mA·h·g^(-1) after 150 cycles.Even after 500 cycles,the specific capacity of the electrode remained high,with a value of 438 mA·h·g^(-1) at a current density of 1000 A·g^(-1).

文摘The development of lithium-ion batteries with high-energy densities is substantially hampered by the graphite anode's low theoretical capacity(372 mAh g^(-1)).There is an urgent need to explore novel anode materials for lithium-ion batteries.Silicon(Si),the second-largest element outside of Earth,has an exceptionally high specific capacity(3579 mAh g^(-1)),regarded as an excellent choice for the anode material in high-capacity lithium-ion batteries.However,it is low intrinsic conductivity and volume amplification during service status,prevented it from developing further.These difficulties can be successfully overcome by incorporating carbon into pure Si systems to form a composite anode and constructing a buffer structure.This review looks at the diffusion mechanism,various silicon-based anode material configurations(including sandwich,core-shell,yolk-shell,and other 3D mesh/porous structures),as well as the appropriate binders and electrolytes.Finally,a summary and viewpoints are offered on the characteristics and structural layout of various structures,metal/non-metal doping,and the compatibility and application of various binders and electrolytes for silicon-based anodes.This review aims to provide valuable insights into the research and development of silicon-based carbon anodes for high-performance lithium-ion batteries,as well as their integration with binders and electrolyte.
