Rational design of SnO2@C nanocomposites for lithium ion batteries by utilizing adsorption properties of MOFs†
Abstract
A facile synthetic strategy is developed to prepare mono-dispersed SnO2 particles within three-dimensional porous carbon frameworks by utilizing the adsorption properties of metal–organic frameworks. This composite exhibits a high reversible capacity of 900 mA h g−1 at 100 mA g−1 after 50 cycles, with a stable capacity retention of 880 mA h g−1 at 100 mA g−1 even after 200 cycles.
