The state-of-the-art development progress of the fabrication, design, modification, and applications of TiO2-B-based hierarchical nanostructures with a well-controlled size and morphology in lithium-ion battery (LIB) applications has been summarized and discussed. Based on studying on lithiation/delithiation on mechanisms of a typical metal oxide nanomaterials, along with doping with foreign atoms (metal or non-metal), using electronically conductive additives (graphene/graphene derivatives), as well as designing and using hierarchical anode-material nanostructures (hybrids/composites) containing two or more constituents in LIB applications, these strategies have provided many great o... |
To enhance the performance of lithium-ion batteries, zinc oxide (ZnO) has generated interest as an anode candidate owing to its high theoretical capacity. However, because of its limitations such as its slow chemical reaction kinetics, intense capacity fading on potential cycling, and low rate capability, composite anodes of ZnO and other materials are manufactured. In this study, we introduce binary and ternary composites of ZnO with other metal oxides (MOs) and carbon-based materials. Most ZnO-based composite anodes exhibit a higher specific capacity, rate performance, and cycling stability than a single ZnO anode. The synergistic effects between ZnO and the other MOs or carbon-base... |
