One‐Step Synthesis of Si–Graphene Heterostructures via in‐Flight Gas‐Phase Mixing for High‐Capacity Silicon‐Rich Anodes

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A one‐step gas‐phase synthesis directly assembles amorphous Si nanoparticles with few‐layer graphene heterostructures via in‐flight mixing. Compositions with only 15 wt.% FLG deliver ~2800 mAh g−1 (Si + FLG) at 0.05 C and retain ~1400 mAh g−1 after 100 cycles at a high cycling rate of 1 C, enabled by a percolated, strain‐buffering graphene network that

Thermoresponsive Gel Polymer Electrolytes Enabled by Retained Double Bonds for Thermal Shutdown in Lithium‐Ion Batteries

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A smart gel electrolyte with thermal shutdown capability has been proposed enabled by a two‐step cross‐linking strategy, which preserves a high density of unreacted double bonds at room temperature. This strategy brings negligible degradation to room temperature electrochemical performance, while under thermal abuse conditions above 115 °C, the gel ...
