AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) rigidity-reinforced SiO anodes are prepared using the aqueous multicomponent binders to stabilize the performances of lithium-ion batteries. Considering an elastic skeleton, adhesiveness, electrolyte absorption, etc., four kinds of binders [polyacrylamide (PAM), poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE), carboxymethyl cellulose, and styrene butadiene rubber (SBR)] are selected to prepare aqueous multicomponent binders. The SiO anodes with the binder PAM/SBR/PTFE (PSP) exhibit a 3D rigidity-reinforced structure, larger adhesive force, and moderate electrolyte adsorption capacity compared to other anodes with single and multicomponent binders. Specifically, the electrochemical performances of the SiO anodes with the binder PSP663 are stabilized, and a retention capacity of 770 mAh g at 500 mA g after 300 cycles and a rate capacity of 993 mAh g at 1200 mA g are obtained. The enhanced performances are attributed to the good chemical stability of PTFE to protect SiO particles from the electrolyte corrosion and to ensure electrode integrity. SBR acts as the binder backbone due to the strong adhesion force and specific three-dimensional structure. The rigidity of PAM limits the excessive expansion of SiO particles well and shortens the ion migration. These results indicate that the 3D rigidity-reinforced SiO anode with the aqueous binder PSP663 has promising prospects for practical application, and the results also provide a reference for solving the expansion problem of the silicon materials.

We designed a SiO@C/MnO composite material with ultrafine particle size using a simple sol-gel method and calcination process. SiO and MnO components produce a mutual suppression effect during the charge/discharge process to mitigate volume expansion and maintain the long-term stability of composite.

Silicon is utilized as a functional material in various fields such as semiconductors, bio-medicine, and solar energy. To prepare Si materials, researchers have proposed methods including carbothermal reduction, hydrothermal reduction, and magnesiothermal reduction, but these strategies often involve high temperatures or unwanted by-products. Herein, we present a low-temperature ionic liquid reduction system to prepare Si nanospheres based on 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride-aluminum chloride ([Bmim]Cl-AlCl).

Although Silicon monoxide (SiO) is regarded as the most promising next-generation anode material, the large volume expansion, poor conductivity, and low initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE) severely hamper its commercialization application. Designing a multilayer conductive skeleton combined with advanced prelithiation technology is considered an effective approach to address these problems. Herein, a reliable strategy is proposed that utilizes MXene and carbon nanotube (CNT) as dual-conductive skeletons to encapsulate SiO through simple electrostatic interaction for high-performance anodes in LIBs, while also performing chemical prelithiation.

The direct observation of the morphological changes in silicon-based negative electrode (Si-based negative electrode) materials during battery charging and discharging is useful for handling such materials and in electrode plate design. We developed an operando scanning electron microscopy (operando SEM) technique to quantitatively evaluate the expansion and contraction of Si-based negative electrode materials. A small all-solid-state lithium-ion battery was charged and discharged, and the expansion/contraction of particles while harnessing capacity was observed using SEM.

The interfacial reaction of a silicon anode is very complex, which is closely related with the electrolyte components and surface elements' chemical status of the Si anode. It is crucial to elucidate the formation mechanism of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) on the silicon anode, which promotes the development of a stable SEI. However, the interface reaction mechanism on the silicon surface is closely related to the surface components.
