Özet

In this study, innovative electrode materials for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) were developed and characterized, demonstrating significant performance enhancements. Initially, NMC622@TiO2 was synthesized using a wet-chemical method with titanium(IV) ethoxide as the Ti source. Advanced structural investigations confirmed the successful formation of a core@shell structure with negligible cation mixing (Li+/Ni2+) at the NMC622 surface, contributing to enhanced electrochemical performance. Subsequently, carbon-based anode materials were produced from biomass, specifically figure seeds, and subjected to high-temperature heat treatment. The resulting powders exhibited dominant graphitic properties, evidenced by a Raman I D/I G ratio of 0.5. Electrochemical evaluations of both electrode materials were conducted using half-cell configurations. The optimization of the TiO2 coating process was assessed through half-cell performance metrics and diffusion rates calculated from galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT) experiments. The final phase focused on full-cell design, employing a prelithiation strategy for anodes using a direct contact technique. Optimization of the prelithiation process led to the assembly of full cells combining NMC622/prelithiated figure-seed anodes and NMC622@TiO2/prelithiated figure-seed anodes. The results revealed that TiO2-coated NMC622, paired with prelithiated carbon anodes derived from figure seeds, delivered superior performance compared to uncoated NMC622 full cells. This study underscores the potential of biomass-derived carbon anodes and TiO2 coatings in enhancing the efficiency and performance of LIBs.
