Abstract

Si anode materials are essential for the realization of high-energy-density lithium-ion batteries due to their theoretical capacity, which is 10 times higher than that of graphite-based anode materials, which are currently the most widely used. However, Si anode materials have low electrical conductivity, and during lithiation and de-lithiation, cracks and crushing of particles due to significant volume changes occur, resulting in the continuous formation of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer due to electrolyte decomposition reactions, which leads to a rapid decrease in capacity. To overcome these limitations, research has focused on compounding with carbon materials that can provide electrical conductivity and suppress volume expansion. In this paper, we investigate the formation of various types of Si/C composite structures using hydrocarbons as carbon sources and the resulting improvement in electrochemical properties.

Si 음극재는 현재 가장 많이 활용되고 있는 흑연계 음극재보다 10배가량 높은 이론적 용량으로 인해 고에너지 밀도 리튬 이온 배터리 실현을 위해 필수적이다. 그러나 Si 음극재는 전기 전도성이 낮으며, 리튬화 및 탈리튬화 과정에서 상당한 부피 변화로 인한 입자의 균열과 분쇄가 발생하며 이로 인한 지속적인 전해질의 분해 반응에 의한 고체 전해질 계면(SEI) 층 형성이 일어나 급격한 용량 감소가 발생한다. 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위해서, 전기 전도성을 부여하고 부피 팽창을 억제할 수 있는 탄소 소재와의 복합화를 통한 복합 소재 형성에 관한 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 탄화수소를 탄소 원으로써 활용하여 다양한 형태의 Si/C 복합재 구조를 형성하는 연구와 이에 의한 전기 화학 특성 향상에 대하여 탐구한다.
