Abstract

The silicon/carbon (Si/C) composite material was prepared, and the electrochemical performance was investigated as a promising anode material for lithium ion batteries. The results show that the binder in the electrode acts as an important role for improving the reversible capacity of the Si/C materials during cycling. The Si/C electrode with CMC/SBR binder possesses a better cycle performance than that with PVDF binder. The Si/C composite material shows an initial reversible capacity of more than 700 mAh·g-1 and remains a reversible capacity of 597 mAhg-1 after 40 cycles.
