▎ 摘  要

NOVELTY - Electrode comprises a nanocomposite of graphene oxide and a silicon-based polymer matrix. USE - The electrode is useful as an anode in lithium-ion battery (claimed), an electric car, a hybrid electromotive car, a mobile phone or a personal computer. ADVANTAGE - The electrode: exhibits a capacity of 800 mAh/g when the lithium-ion battery cycles at C-rate of C/20 for at least 500 cycles, a capacity retention of at least 100 mAh/g when the lithium-ion battery cycles at C-rate of 100 C for at least 500 cycles, a capacity retention of at least 85% after the lithium-ion battery runs for 1000 cycles under a 0.01-3 V voltage-window at C/5 rate, a capacity retention of at least 90% after the lithium-ion battery runs for 1000 cycles under a 0.01-3 V voltage-window at C/10 rate, a superlative power density of at least 250 kW/kg after the lithium-ion battery runs for at least 100 cycles under a 0.01-2.5 V voltage-window at a rate of 6000 C, and a recovery of at least 95% charge capacity after the lithium-ion battery runs for at least 500 cycles under a 0.01-2.5 V voltage-window at a rate of 2000 C; has superior performance; exhibits a high energy density of 800 mAh/g reversible capacity, a high and good stability and a robust resistance to failure; provides high specific area for reaction; and has extremely high specific charge capacity. The methods are safe and more environmentally friendly.
