Their structural properties are investigated by XRD, FTIR, SEM, TEM, BET and XPS analysis, and Fe/ Co/S@NPC-T composite materials, heat treated at different temperatures, are used as anode materials in rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. According to XRD results, the heat treatment of the Fe/Co@ZIF-12/S heat treated at 900 ? leads to the formation of the FeCoS2 phase (66 %) along with CoS (33 %) phase impurity. The heat treatment of the Fe/Co@ZIF-12/S heat treated at 800 ? causes the formation of the main phase of FeCoS2 with minor impurity phases of CoS and FeS2. However, pyrolysis of the Fe/Co@ZIF-12/S heat treated at 700 & DEG;C leads to the formation of the FeCoS2, CoS, FeS, and FeS2 phases. Among the samples, the highest BET surface area is 53.4 m2/g for the Fe/Co/S@NPC-90 0 sample. The CV analysis of the battery cell shows anodic and cathodic redox peaks, which belong to the redox reaction of CoS, FeS2, and FeS. The first dis-charge capacities of the cells for Fe/Co/S@NPC-70 0, Fe/Co/S@NPC-80 0 and Fe/Co/S@NPC-90 0 are 395, 963, 574 mA h/g at 300 mA/g, and 229, 835 and 1024 mA h/g at 1000 mA/g, respectively.
