Article Abstract
Due to their small interlayer spacing and a low lithiation potential close to Li deposition, current graphite anodes suffer from weak kinetics, and lithium deposition in a fast-charging process, hindering their practical application in high-power lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). In this work, expanded graphite incorporated with LiTiO nanoparticles (EG/LTO) was synthesized moderate oxidization of artificial graphite following a solution coating process. The EG/LTO has sufficient porosity for fast Li diffusion and a dense LiTiO layer for decreased interface reaction resistance, resulting in excellent fast-charging properties. EG/LTO presented a high reversible capacity of 272.8 mA h g at 3.74 A g (10C), much higher than that of the original commercial graphite (50.1 mA h g at 10C) and even superior to that of hard carbon. In addition, EG/LTO exhibited capacity retention rate of 98.4% after 500 cycles at 10C, demonstrating high structural stability during a long cycling process. This study provides a protocol for a solution chemistry method to prepare fast-charging graphite anode materials with high stability for high-power LIBs.

Silicon is considered as a promising anode material for lithium-ion batteries due to its high capacity. However, its huge volume expansion during lithium de-embedding and low Li/electron diffusion pose a great challenge for practical applications, while carbon coatings are important strategies to enhance the cycling performance of Si anode. Herein, three kinds of carbon coatings are designed with different microstructures and evaluated the relationship between microstructure and electrochemical behaviors.

Photoinduced phase transition holds the key to realizing novel states of matter and transition pathways that do not exist otherwise. An example is ultrafast graphitization of diamond using femtosecond soft X-ray laser pulses, for which the structural transformation pathways have not been fully explored. Using first-principles nonadiabatic quantum molecular dynamics simulations, we found a progression from order-to-order (diamond-to-graphite) to order-to-disorder (diamond-to-amorphous) phase transitions at elevated laser intensities.

In this work, we combined expanded graphite (ExG) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) to fabricate composite phase change materials (CPCMs) with effective photo/electrothermal conversion and storage, potentially applied to thermotherapy. The CPCMs were studied with varying contents of PEG (60, 70, 80, and 90%), showing good leakage-proof ability at a PEG content of up to 90% and high crystallization fractions of 94.4-98.

Biomass-derived carbon materials, known for their low cost and high carbon yield, are considered as promising precursors for hard carbon (HC) anodes in sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). Designing the closed pores plays a critical role in improving the sodium storage capacity of HC anode. Herein, the pore structure of durian shell-derived HC is regulated by optimizing the concentration of pore-forming template nano-ZnO which is in-situ generated from zinc gluconate (ZG) during pretreatment.

Rational regulation of hollow magnetic-dielectric composites is becoming a leading strategy for achieving superior electromagnetic (EM) wave absorption. However, the simple fabrication of such composites remains a challenge. Herein, a confined diffusion engineering strategy is exploited to prepare hollow magnetic-dielectric microcages, specifically FeCoNi@NCMs-CT.
