Abstract

Two kinds of SnO₂@C composite were successfully prepared by a facile and cost-effective method through one-pot hydrothermal treatment of a mixture of Sn⁴⁺, and different carbohydrates (glucose and starch). The composition and microstructure of resultants were characterized by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), N₂ Adsorption-desorption method and Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM). The electrochemical performance as anode material for lithium-ion batteries was confirmed by galvanostatic charge-discharge test and Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) method. Results show that the pyrolytic carbon derived from carbohydrate precursors forms a stable composite structure with 4~5 nm SnO₂nanocrystals. The large volume variation of SnO₂ during the Li⁺ insertion-extraction process is effectively alleviated by the buffering effect of carbon matrix. Whatsmore, small SnO₂ nanoparticles can also effectively reduce this volume change, improving the electrode structural stability and electrochemical properties. Because the degree of order of glucose pyrolytic carbon is higher than that of starch pyrolytic carbon, correspondingly its composite shows better cycle and rate performance, which can stably release >400 mAh/g specific capacity at high current density of 2 A/g.

Key words: composite tin dioxide pyrolytic hard carbon nanoparticles anode of lithium ion batteries
