SiO<em><sub>x</sub></em> is currently considered a promising anode material due to its exceptionally high capacity for LIBs. However, the significant volumetric changes of SiO<em><sub>x</sub></em> during cycling and its initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE) complicate its use, whether alone or in combination with graphite materials. In this study, a three-dimensional conductive binder network with high electronic conductivity and robust elasticity for graphite/SiO<em><sub>x</sub></em> blended anodes was proposed by chemically anchoring carbon nanotubes and carboxymethyl cellulose binders using tannic acid as a chemical cross-linker. In addition, a dehydrogenation-based prelithiation strategy employing lithium hydride was utilized to enhance the ICE of SiO<em><sub>x</sub></em>. The combination of these two strategies increased the CE of SiO<em><sub>x</sub></em> from 74% to 87% and effectively mitigated its volume expansion in the graphite/SiO<em><sub>x</sub></em> blended electrode, resulting in an efficient electron-conductive binder network. This led to a remarkable capacity retention of 94% after 30 cycles, even under challenging conditions, with a high capacity of 550 mA h g<sup>−1</sup> and a current density of 4 mA cm<sup>−2</sup>. Furthermore, to validate the feasibility of utilizing prelithiated SiO<em><sub>x</sub></em> anode materials and the conductive binder network in LIBs, a full cell incorporating these materials and a single-crystalline Ni-rich cathode was used. This cell demonstrated a ∼27.3% increase in discharge capacity of the first cycle (∼185.7 mA h g<sup>−1</sup>) and exhibited a cycling stability of 300 cycles. Thus, this study reports a simple, feasible, and insightful method for designing high-performance LIB electrodes.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15728,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Energy Chemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":13.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142530534","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although some empirical methods have been employed in some of the studies to address this issue, their effectiveness has been limited. Our CMD research, supported by quantum chemical calculations and experimental data, reveals that the solvation structure is influenced not only by the charge model but also by the polarization description. Previous empirical approaches that focused solely on adjusting ion-solvent interaction strengths overlooked the importance of polarization effects. Building on this insight, we propose integrating the Drude polarization model into mainstream force fields and verify its feasibility in carbonate, ether, and nitrile electrolytes.
