Abstract:Graphite is the most commercialized electrode active compound for lithium-ion batteries (LIB). However, its limited theoretical capacity (372 mAh/g) and relatively poor rate performance make it unsuitable for LIB with higher energy density and fast charge ability. Therefore, alternative carbon-based materials, like graphene, have also been explored due to their attractive electrochemical properties.1 Despite having these properties, the low density and the high specific surface area of graphenic materials resu… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
