Mikrostrukturierung von metalloxid-basierten tubulären Nanokompositen hergestellt durch Biotemplating von nanokristallinen supramolekularen Architekturen aus Cellulose
Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
A new type of Co3O4 hybrid particles was successfully synthesized via a facile wet-chemical route and their electrochemical performance and structure stability as anode material for lithium-ion batteries were studied. Cyclic voltammetry measurements showed an enhanced cycle stability for electrodes prepared with Na-alginate binder. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements confirmed the improved electrode performance. It could be shown that a changed electrode structure results in a decreased charge-transfer resistance, which is an indicator for a facile charge transfer at the active material/electrolyte interface. The improved electrochemical performance can be attributed to the new binder system, that leads to a homogeneous distribution of the active material and thus to more stability and an increased charge transfer. This new strategy is low-cost, effective and environment friendly and could be transferred to other anode materials for lithium-ion batteries.
