  • Publication number: 20250079457
    Abstract: A silicon-carbon composite material, a preparation method thereof, an anode, and a lithium-ion battery are provided. The silicon-carbon composite material includes a matrix and a coating layer. The matrix is a carbon nanotube doped with titanium and nitrogen and has an outer surface and an inner surface. The coating layer coats the outer surface and the inner surface, and the coating layer includes a silicon oxide layer. In one aspect, the polarization of the silicon-carbon composite material is significantly reduced. In another aspect, the silicon oxide layer coating the outer surface and the inner surface of the matrix may be anchored by forming chemical bonds such as N—O—Si and Ti—O—Si with nitrogen and titanium doped into the carbon nanotube, thereby improving the cycle stability of the silicon-carbon composite material. The lithium-ion battery has the advantages of high specific discharge capacity, stable cycle performance, and good rate performance.

  • Patent number: 9711789
    Abstract: A method for synthesizing lithium titanate includes preparing a supercritical fluid from water; reacting a solution containing lithium and titanium with the supercritical fluid under a condition that maintains the supercritical fluid in its supercritical state to produce a reaction mixture comprising the lithium titanate; and collecting the lithium titanate. The supercritical fluid is prepared at a temperature of 375-500° C. and a pressure of 22-35 MPa. The solution containing lithium and titanium is prepared by mixing a solution containing lithium, prepared by dissolving a lithium source in a selected solvent, and a solution containing titanium, prepared by dissolving a titanium source in the selected solvent, wherein a molar ratio of lithium:titanium is between 4.0:5.0 and 4.5:5.0. The lithium source is lithium hydroxide, lithium carbonate, lithium acetate, lithium oxalate, lithium nitrate, or lithium oxide, and the titanium source is tetrabutyl titanate.
