Fe(3)O(4)@C microcapsules were prepared using carbon-coated α-FeOOH nanorods as precursors, which were synthesized via two-step hydrothermal reactions. During the subsequent sintering procedure, α-FeOOH was reduced to Fe(3)O(4) by carbon, accompanied by the formation of mesopores. In Fe(3)O(4)@C microcapsules, mesoporous Fe(3)O(4) nanorods are coated with amorphorous carbon layers. The Fe(3)O(4)/C composites with such special structures demonstrate high specific capacity and good cyclic stability as anode materials in Li test cells.
Fe(3)O(4)@C 微胶囊是使用碳包覆的 α-FeOOH 纳米棒作为前体通过两步水热反应合成的。在随后的烧结过程中,α-FeOOH 被碳还原为 Fe(3)O(4),同时形成介孔。在 Fe(3)O(4)@C 微胶囊中,介孔 Fe(3)O(4)纳米棒被非晶态碳层包覆。作为 Li 测试电池的阳极材料,具有这种特殊结构的 Fe(3)O(4)/C 复合材料表现出高比容量和良好的循环稳定性。
