New silicon-hydrogel composite Li-ion anode material shows long cycle life, easy manufacturability

Green Car Congress

A g -1 , the composite electrode exhibited a relatively stable reversible lithium capacity of 1,600 mAh g -1 for 1,000 deep cycles based on the weight of only Si. The electrode can be continuously deep cycled up to 5,000 times without significant capacity decay. Click to enlarge. At a charge/discharge current of 1.0
