  • Magnetite (FeO)—multiwalled carbon nanotube composite structures with performance as high rate electrode materials for Li-ion batteries
    Patent number: 11349117
    Abstract: 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 ?-? 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).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 17, 2019
    Date of Patent: May 31, 2022
    Assignee: The Research Foundation for the State University of New York
    Inventors: Stanislaus Wong, Lei Wang, Coray McBean, Amy C. Marschilok, Kenneth Takeuchi, Esther S. Takeuchi
  • "Flower-like" LI4TI5O12-Multiwalled Carbon Nanotube Composite Structures With Performance As Highrate Anode-Materials for Li-Ion Battery Applications and Methods of Synthesis Thereof
    Publication number: 20220059819
    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 ?-? interaction strategy to realize the nanocomposite anode material.
