ABSTRACT

The strategy of material modification for improving the stability of silicon electrodes is laborious and costly, while the conventional binders cannot withstand the repeated massive volume variability of silicon-based materials. Hence, there is a demand to settle the silicon-based materials' problems with green and straightforward solutions. This paper presents a high-performance silicon anode with a binder obtained by in situ thermal cross-linking of citric acid (CA) and ß-cyclodextrin (ß-CD) during the electrode preparation process. The Si electrode with a binder synthesized by the one-pot method shows excellent cycling performance. It maintains a specific capacity of 1696 mAh·g-1 after 200 cycles at a high current of 0.5 C. Furthermore, the carbonylation of ß-CD to carbonyl-ß-CD (c-ß-CD) introduced better water solubility, and the c-ß-CD can generate multidimensional connections with CA and Si, which significantly enhances the specific capacity to 1941 mAh·g-1 at 0.5 C. The results demonstrate that the prepared integrated electrode facilitates the formation of a stable and controllable solid electrolyte interface layer of Si and accommodates Si's repeated giant volume variations.

ABSTRACT

As a non-active material component, the binder can effectively maintain the integrity of battery electrodes. In this work, based on the inspired structure of fishing nets, a three-dimensional mesh adhesive using widely sourced raw materials CMC and ß-CD was designed. These cross-linked cyclodextrins have the advantage of dispersing the stress at the anchor point and moderating the significant volume changes of the Si anode. The Si/ß-CD-CMC electrode maintains a reversible capacity of 1702 mA h g-1 even after 200 cycles at a high current of 0.5C. This work represents a significant step forward in Si anode binders and enables the cross-linked cyclodextrins to have potential applications in energy storage systems.
