  • Publication number: 20250033977
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method of preparing a hard carbon anode material and use thereof. Starch is mixed with nano-silica, the obtained mixture is heat treated at 150° C. to 240° C. under an inert atmosphere, the obtained first-sintered product is heat treated at 180° C. to 220° C. under an oxygen-containing atmosphere, the second-sintered product is cyclonically separated to remove nano-silica to obtain pre-oxidized starch-based microspheres, and the pre-oxidized starch-based microspheres are performed carbonization treatment under an inert atmosphere to obtain the hard carbon anode material. In the present invention, the silica particles can be adsorbed on the surface of the starch raw material, and cross-linking occurs between the starch molecular chains during the heat treatment process, and under the barrier of the silicon dioxide, the starch particles will not be cross-linked but fused to form a spherical structure.

  • Patent number: 12170372
    Abstract: The invention belongs to the technical field of material synthesis, and discloses a nitrogen-doped hollow cobaltosic oxide and a preparation method and application thereof. A chemical formula of the nitrogen-doped hollow cobaltosic oxide is Co3O4—COF-T-D@C—N; and the COF-T-D is a covalent organic framework. Due to an open hollow structure, the nitrogen-doped hollow cobaltosic oxide of the invention has a large specific surface area, thus having a large contact area with an electrolyte, which is convenient for lithium ions to transport therein. The open hollow structure also prevents a volume effect from being generated during charging and discharging, and nitrogen is introduced for doping, so that granules can be gradually activated to increase the specific surface area and active sites, a discharge (cycle) stability of the material is improved, and a rate performance of the material is improved.

  • Publication number: 20240372083
    Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a preparation method for a silicon/carbon composite anode material and use of thereof. The preparation method includes the following steps: heating a hypercrosslinked polymer in an inert atmosphere for carbonization to obtain a porous carbide; mixing the porous carbide with a silicon-containing solution to obtain a silicon-containing porous carbide suspension; and adding a complexing agent, a metal salt, and a reducing agent to the silicon-containing porous carbide suspension to allow a reaction, and after the reaction is completed, conducting solid-liquid separation to obtain a solid, and heating the solid in an inert atmosphere to obtain the silicon/carbon composite anode material. In the present disclosure, the metal salt is reduced with the reducing agent under an action of the complexing agent through a metal-embedded-into-silicon treatment, such that a metal layer is formed on a silicon layer adsorbed on the porous carbide.
