Sn/WC/graphene (Sn/WC/G) triple layered composite in which Sn thin-layer (3–10 nm) enwrapped in-between WC (tungsten carbide) substrate and few-layer graphene is prepared via a simple two-step ball-milling approach. The as prepared triple layered composite exhibits superior cyclability with high capacity and rate capability in lithium-ion half cells, i.e., ca. retains 91% of its initial capacity (400 mAh g−1) after 100 cycles and delivers a high capacity of ∼200 mAh g−1 at a very high rate of 8 C (4000 mA g−1). The improvement in the electrochemical performance can be attributed to the triple layered structure in which the inner WC and outer graphene conductive buffer matrix not only can buffer the volume changes of the Sn thin-layer during cycling, but also ensure good electrical contact of the electro-active particles. Furthermore, a full cell coupled with spinel LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 cathode in this paper demonstrates full utilization of the Sn anode and an expected energy density value of 530 Wh kg−1, showing a prospect for practical lithium-ion battery applications.
A Sn/WC/graphene triple layered composite synthesized via a simple ball-milling approach shows excellent cycling stability and rate capability when used as anode for lithium-ion batteries. Also a (Sn/WC/G)/LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 full cell exhibits a discharge capacity of 399 mAh (g of Sn/WC/G anode)−1 with superior cyclability, demonstrates full utilization of the anode and an expected energy density value of 530 Wh kg−1, showing a prospect for practical lithium-ion battery applications.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slide
