摘要
Graphite, widely employed as an anode in LIBs, is limited by a theoretical capacity of 372 mA h g(-1). Progress in nanoscience and energy storage systems has brought attention to nano-sized alpha-Fe2O3 as next generation anodes, providing capacities up to three times higher than graphite. However, mass-market application remains challenging due to a long-term cycling capacity loss, the intrinsic low conductivity and safety concerns regarding the "nano-nature" of alpha-Fe2O3 nanoparticles. Promising solution concepts include the embedding of alpha-Fe2O3 into conductive sp(2) derived carbons with volume-buffer capabilities. This review article presents the current status of alpha-Fe2O3/carbon nanocomposites with superior electrochemical performance based on 2D graphene, 1D carbon nanofibers and 1D carbon nanotubes.
