Abstract

Herein, flexible carbon fiber cloth (CFC) is modified by embedding Ni nanoparticles via a thermal reduction strategy, and it is used as a suitable anode material for lithium-ion batteries. Benefitting from the elemental interaction between Ni and carbon, the Ni-embedded CFC displayed higher lithium storage properties than pristine CFC and Ni-free porous CFC.
