ChemInform Abstract: Porous Co₃O₄ Nanorods as Anode for Lithium‐Ion Battery with Excellent Electrochemical Performance.

Abstract

Mesoporous Co3O4 nanorods as high performance anode for Li‐ion batteries are prepared by a two‐step approach comprising hydrothermal processing of CoCl2 and urea (autoclave, 100 °C, 12 h) followed by calcination in air (300 °C, 2 h).

Electrochemical performance of Mn 3 O 4 nanorods by N‐doped reduced graphene oxide using ultrasonic spray pyrolysis for lithium storage

“…Conversely, one‐dimensional (1D) nanorods or nanorod structures have many advantages for LIB applications because materials with a well‐defined 1D structure can allow for a large electrode‐electrolyte interface area, and a large degree of interconnection among 1D materials improves conductivity 11,28‐32 . More importantly, the interior voids in nanorods can further accommodate volume changes to preserve their structures and tolerate fast Li + diffusion 32‐34 .…”
