Summary A composite electrode model has been developed for lithium-ion battery cells with a negative electrode of silicon and graphite. The electrochemical interactions between silicon and graphite are handled by two parallel functions for lithium diffusion in silicon and graphite, with separate interfacial current densities from each phase.
We have developed a method which is adaptable and straightforward for the production of a negative electrode material based on Si/carbon nanotube (Si/CNTs) composite for Li-ion batteries.
The performance of the synthesized composite as an active negative electrode material in Li ion battery has been studied. It has been shown through SEM as well as impedance analyses that the enhancement of charge transfer resistance, after 100 cycles, becomes limited due to the presence of CNT network in the Si-decorated CNT composite.
Furthermore, because silicon particles rapidly fracture during cycling, the amount of silicon is normally limited to a small mass fraction, relative to graphite, in the negative electrode for commercial battery cells, e.g. ca. 10% for the LG M50 cells .
It is often blended with graphite to form a composite anode to extend lifetime, however, the electrochemical interactions between silicon and graphite have not been fully investigated. Here, an electrochemical composite electrode model is developed and validated for lithium-ion batteries with a silicon/graphite anode.
