Title: “Flower-like” Li₄Ti₅O₁₂-multiwalled carbon nanotube composite structures with performance as highrate anode-materials for li-ion battery applications and methods of synthesis thereof

Abstract

A method of fabricating nanocomposite anode material embodying a lithium titanate (LTO)-multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT) composite intended for use in a lithium-ion battery includes providing multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNTs), including nanotube surfaces, onto which functional oxygenated carboxylic acid moieties are arranged, generating 3D flower-like, lithium titanate (LTO) microspheres, including thin nanosheets and anchoring the acid-functionalized MWNTs onto surfaces of the 3D LTO microspheres by π-π interaction strategy to realize the nanocomposite anode material.

Herein we highlight the significance of nanoscale attachment modality as an important determinant of observed electrochemical performance. Specifically, controlled loading ratios of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) have been successfully anchored onto the surfaces of a unique “flower-like” Li₄Ti₅O₁₂ (LTO) micro-scale sphere motif, for the first time, using a number of different and distinctive preparative approaches, including (i) a sonication method, (ii) an in situ direct-deposition approach, (iii) a covalent attachment protocol, as well as (iv) a π-π interaction strategy. In terms of structural characterization, the composites generated by physical sonication as well as non-covalent π-π interactions retained the intrinsic hierarchicalmore » « less

Magnetite (Fe₃O₄)—multiwalled carbon nanotube composite structures with performance as high rate electrode materials for Li-ion batteries

Patent Wong, Stanislaus; Wang, Lei; McBean, Coray; ...

A method of synthesizing an electrode material for lithium ion batteries from Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) to yield (Fe₃O₄-NWNTs) composite heterostructures. The method includes linking the Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles and multiwalled carbon nanotubes using a π-π interaction synthesis process to yield the composite heterostructure electrode material. Since Fe₃O₄ has an intermediate voltage, it can be considered an anode (when paired with a higher voltage material) or a cathode (when paired with a lower voltage material).

Doped motifs offer an intriguing structural pathway toward improving conductivity for battery applications. Specifically, Ca-doped, three-dimensional “flower-like” Li_4–xCa_xTi₅O₁₂ (“x” = 0, 0.1, 0.15, and 0.2) micrometer-scale spheres have been successfully prepared for the first time using a simple and reproducible hydrothermal reaction followed by a short calcination process. The products were experimentally characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) mapping, inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and galvanostatic charge–discharge testing.

In the present work, we report synthesis of MgCo₂O₄ (MCO)/Li₄Ti₅O₁₂ (LTO) composites for Li-ion battery anodes by a co-precipitation method. The objective here is to replace expensive Co with Mg and also to exploit advantages of both MCO and LTO. Three samples of MCO/LTO particles with different MCO proportion have various average particle sizes of 38.1, 56.9, and 58.5 nm, confirmed by scanning electron microscopy. Electrochemical studies show that a MCO/LTO anode offers a discharge capacity of ca. 300 mAh g^-1, which is two times higher than that achieved by pristine LTO. The MCO/LTO anode also retains 75% of itsmore » « less
