The limitations in potential for the electroactive material of the negative electrode are less important than in the past thanks to the advent of 5 V electrode materials for the cathode in lithium-cell batteries. However, to maintain cell voltage, a deep study of new electrolyte–solvent combinations is required.
Hence, the current scenario of electrode materials of Li-ion batteries can be highly promising in enhancing the battery performance making it more efficient than before. This can reduce the dependence on fossil fuels such as for example, coal for electricity production. 1. Introduction
In the case of both LIBs and NIBs, there is still room for enhancing the energy density and rate performance of these batteries. So, the research of new materials is crucial. In order to achieve this in LIBs, high theoretical specific capacity materials, such as Si or P can be suitable candidates for negative electrodes.
Two lines of research can be distinguished: (i) improvement of LiCoO 2 and carbon-based materials, and (ii) replacement of the electrode materials by others with different composition and structure. Concerning the positive electrode, the replacement of lithium cobaltate has been shown to be a difficult task.
However, the use of lithium metal as anode material in rechargeable batteries was finally rejected due to safety reasons. What caused the fall in the application of rechargeable lithium-anode batteries is also well known and analogous to the origin of the lack of zinc anode rechargeable batteries.
This review summarizes the application of silicon-based cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries, summarizes the current research progress from three aspects: binder, surface function of silicon materials and silicon-carbon composites, and looks forward to the future research direction.
