Optimizing Pyrolysis of Sugar Carbons for Use as Anode Materials in Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Abstract

Table sugar was pyrolyzed under various conditions. Carbons of pyrolyzed sugar demonstrated high capacity for Li intercalation, exceeding that of graphite. Experiments were carried out to search for optimal pyrolyzing conditions. The electrochemical behavior of these carbons was found to depend on the pyrolysis temperature, heating rate, argon gas flow rate, and morphology of the precursors. Pyrolysis of sugar was also carried out under vacuum, which is equivalent to a high argon gas flow. Carbons of pyrolyzed sugar under optimal conditions showed large reversible capacity, ≈650 mAh/g, small irreversible capacity, ⩽170 mAh/g, and small hysteresis between discharge and charge in carbon/Li metal electrochemical test cells. Pyrolyzed sugar carbons are therefore potential candidates as anode materials in Li‐ion batteries.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
