A facile route for growth of CNTs on Si@hard carbon for conductive agent incorporating anodes for lithium-ion batteries

Abstract

Conductive agent incorporating Si anodes consisting of directly grown carbon nanotubes on hard carbon encapsulating Si nanoparticles were prepared by a one-pot chemical vapour deposition process. Owing to this fabulous structure, Si-based anodes exhibit excellent cycle retention and rate capability with a high-mass-loading of 3.5 mg cm−2.
