3D porous carbon networks with highly dispersed SiOx by molecular-scale engineering toward stable lithium metal anodes

Chem Commun (Camb). 2019 May 23;55(43):6034-6037. doi: 10.1039/c9cc01927h.

Abstract

3D porous carbon networks with highly dispersed SiOx have been successfully prepared by molecular-scale engineering with 1D molecular-brush precursors. Benefiting from the high-porosity interconnected structure and the lithiophilic SiOx nanodomains, the as-obtained composites show great advantages as 3D hosts to achieve stable Li plating/stripping.
