SnS nanoparticles are encapsulated into sulfur-doped graphene bubble film presenting a flake-graphite-like structure. The closely packed SnS@G composite shows much lower specific surface area, smaller irreversible Li+ consumption.

We report on the synthesis of 3D mesoporous fullerene/carbon hybrid materials with ordered porous structure and high surface area by mixing the solution of fullerene and sucrose molecules in the nanochannels of 3D mesoporous silica, KIT-6 via nanotemplating approach. The addition of sucrose molecules in the synthesis offers a thin layer of carbon between the fullerene molecules which enhances not only the specific surface area and the specific pore volume but also the conductivity of the hybrid materials. The prepared hybrids exhibit 3D mesoporous structure and show a much higher specific surface area than that of the pure mesoporous fullerene. The hybrids materials are used as the electrodes for supercapacitor and Li-ion battery applications. The optimised hybrid sample shows an excellent rate capability and a high specific capacitance of 254 F/g at the current density of 0.5 A/g, which is much higher than that of the pure mesoporous fullerene, mesoporous carbon, activated carbon and multiwalled carbon nanotubes. When used as the electrode for Li-ion battery, the sample delivers the largest specific capacity of 1067 mAh/g upon 50 cycles at the current density of 0.1 A/g with stability. These results reveal that the addition of carbon in the mesoporous fullerene with 3D structure makes a significant impact on the electrochemical properties of the hybrid samples, demonstrating their potential for applications in Li-ion battery and supercapacitor devices.

Hollow Li4Ti5O12 nanotubes were synthesized by stirring in a heated oil bath using P25 as titanium source and lithium hydroxide as lithium source. The as-prepared samples displayed a nanotube structure, with diameter of about 20~50 nm and length of 0.4 μm. The specific surface area of as-prepared samples reached 153.2 m2g−1. It is demonstrated that the Li4Ti5O12 nanotubes with improved performance can be obtained by hollow structure and high specific surface area. In consequence, it delivered a high reversible initial discharge capacity of 174.2 mAh g−1 at 0.5 C rate. A stable capacity of 170.9 mAh g−1 was delivered when the rate was reduced back to 0.5 C, suggesting good structural stability of the nanocable, high reversibility even after high rate charge– discharge, and good cycle stability. In addition, a capacity of 134.9 mAh g−1 and 98 mAhg−1 could be retained at a high rate of 5 C and 10 C, indicating excellent rate performances.

Abstract Porous carbon is regarded as one of the most promising anode candidates for Li-ion battery and Na-ion battery. We herein demonstrate a series of nitrogen-doped porous carbon (NPC) by simply carbonizing bimetallic ZnCo-containing zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZnCo-ZIFs). The nitrogen content, specific surface area, pore size distribution and microstructure of prepared NPC are balanced by adjusting Zn2+/Co2+ molar ratio of ZnCo-ZIFs and carbonization process parameters. It is found that the optimized ZnCo-ZIF-derived NPC shows promise for electrochemical Li+/Na+ storage, which could be attributed to the hierarchical porous structure, large specific surface area and relatively high N-doping content.
