Popis: | Progress in the performance of high-capacity silicon anodes has been made with a variety of material designs. In this study, a new design on polymeric binder is proposed for the high-capacity anodes. The effective addition of conductive aniline oligomers to adhesive alginate-graft-polyacrylamide binder improves the performance of the silicon/graphite composite electrodes. To do this, three-step in situ polymerization is adopted to synthesize adhesive and conductive alginate-graft-poly(acrylamide-co-acrylamide aniline tetramer). A small amount of aniline tetramer added to the binder, of 1.25 wt%, is enough to enhance electronic and ionic transport through the silicon-based anode, while maintaining electrode adhesion. Consequently, the silicon/graphite electrode containing the alginate-graft-poly(acrylamide-co-acrylamide aniline tetramer) binder shows 701.2 mAh g−1 after 200 cycles with excellent cyclic stability. This is significantly greater performance than that of the commercial graphite electrodes. |
