Effect of particle size distribution on the electrochemical performance of micro-sized silicon-based negative materials.

Si has been extensively examined as a potential alternative to carbonaceous negative materials, because it shows exceptional gravimetric capacity and abundance. In recent years, the strategy of using nano-structured silicon materials as building blocks to build micro-sized silicon-based materials has been widely studied. In this work, a commercialized and benchmark micro-sized silicon-based material (denoted as SiO /C) is used as research target and three groups of materials with different particle size distributions (PSDs) were obtained by simply mechanical sieving.
