A Sn/SnOx/MoS2/C composite material with superior performance was developed as an anode for lithium-ion batteries via a facile and scalable ball-milling method using a three-dimensional (3D) self-assembly of NaCl particles as a template.
Li1.17Mn0.50Ni0.16Co0.17O2 assembled microspheres deliver excellent electrochemical performances due to the fast Li-ion movement during the sintering process.
