SnS2/graphene nanocomposite：A high rate anode material for lithium ion battery

摘要

In this work,via a facile solvothermal route,we synthesized an anode material for lithium ion batteries(LIBs)—SnS_2 nanoparticle/graphene(SnS_2 NP/GNs) nanocomposite.The nanocomposite consists of SnS_2nanoparticles with an average diameter of 4 nm and graphene nanosheets without restacking.The SnS_2 nanoparticles are firmly anchored on the graphene nanosheets.As an anode material for LIBs,the nanocomposite exhibits good Li storage performance especially high rate performance.At the high current rate of 5,10,and 20 A/g,the nanocomposite delivered high capacities of 525,443,and 378 mAh/g,respectively.The good conductivity of the graphene nanosheets and the small particle size of SnS_2contribute to the electrochemical performance of SnS_2 NP/GNs.
