Title: Organometallic Precursor-Derived SnO2/Sn-Reduced Graphene Oxide Sandwiched Nanocomposite Anode with Superior Lithium Storage Capacity. Author: Sui X, Huang X, Wu Y, Ren R, Pu H, Chang J, Zhou G, Mao S, Chen J. Journal: ACS Appl Mater Interfaces; 2018 Aug 08; 10(31):26170-26177. PubMed ID: 29995381. Abstract: Benefiting from the reversible conversion reaction upon delithiation, nanosized SnO2, with its theoretical capacity of 1494 mA h g-1, has gained special attention as a promising anode material. Here, we report a self-assembled SnO2/Sn-reduced graphene oxide (rGO) sandwich nanocomposite developed by organometallic precursor coating and in situ transformation. Ultrafine SnO2 nanoparticles with an average diameter of 5 nm are sandwiched within the rGO/carbonaceous network, which not only greatly alleviates the volume changes upon lithiation and aggregation of SnO2 nanoparticles but also facilitates the charge transfer and reaction kinetics of SnO2 upon lithiation/delithiation. As a result, the SnO2/Sn-rGO nanocomposite exhibited a superior lithium storage capacity with a reversible capacity of 1307 mA h g-1 at a current density of 80 mA g-1 in the potential window of 0.01-2.5 V versus Li+/Li and showed a reversible capacity of 767 mA h g-1 over 200 cycles at a current density of 400 mA g-1. When cycling at a higher current density of 1600 mA g-1, the SnO2/Sn-rGO nanocomposite showed a highly stable capacity of 449 mA g-1 without obvious decay after 400 cycles.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
