Abstract:

In order to improve the morphology and structure of silicon/carbon nanofibers and enhance their energy storage performance, Si/TiO2/PAN nanofiber membranes was prepared though electrospinning of the ball milling Si/TiO2 powder and polyacrylonitrile(PAN), and then in an argon or hydrogen atmosphere carbonization treatment was carried out to obtain Si/TiO2 composite carbon nanofibers. The most suitable ratio of Si to TiO2 and carbonization temperature were optimized, the influence of fiber morphology, molecular structure, and element distribution on energy storage performance were analyzed. As a result, Si/TiO2 composite carbon nanofibers with good conductivity were prepared under the conditions of 1∶2 mass ratio between Si and TiO2 and 900 ℃ carbonization temperature. The fiber structure and the formed TiO2 disordered framework were able to ease effectively the volume expansion and agglomeration of silicon, significantly improving the capacity and cycle stability of lithium-ion batteries. At 0.2 mA/g current density and after 120 cycles, the discharge specific capacities of the composite carbon nanofibers prepared by argon and hydrogen carbonization were 942 and 1 212 mA·h/g, respectively. The work showed that the composite carbon nanofibers prepared through hydrogen carbonization have better rate performance.
