Exploiting the high-energy density of lithium metal as a negative electrode for lithium batteries is considered a prerequisite to satisfy the continually increasing demand for extended driving range of electric vehicles and fully electrify our mobility and transportation.
We have developed a method which is adaptable and straightforward for the production of a negative electrode material based on Si/carbon nanotube (Si/CNTs) composite for Li-ion batteries.
Thick electrodes whose active materials have high areal density may improve the energy densities of lithium-ion batteries. However, the weakened rate abilities and cycle lifetimes of such electrodes significantly limit their practical applications.
In the context of ongoing research focused on high-Ni positive electrodes with over 90% nickel content, the application of Si-negative electrodes is imperative to increase the energy density of batteries.
During the initial lithiation of the negative electrode, as Li ions are incorporated into the active material, the potential of the negative electrode decreases below 1 V (vs. Li/Li +) toward the reference electrode (Li metal), approaching 0 V in the later stages of the process.
Si/CNT nano-network coated on a copper substrate served as the negative electrode in the Li-ion battery. Li foil was used as the counter electrode, and polypropylene served as the separator between the negative and positive electrodes. The electrolyte was 1 M LiPF6 in ethylene carbonate (EC)/dimethyl carbonate (DMC) (1:1 by volume).
