A sulfur/graphene oxide/multiwalled carbon nanotube
(S/GO/MWNT) composite was synthesized via a simple
ultrasonic mixing method followed by heat treatment. By taking
advantage of this solution-based self-assembly ...
A novel stacking sheet-like carbon (SSC) has been
synthesized by carbonizing the corn stalks and composited
with sulfur to prepare a cathode for lithium/sulfur batteries.
Scanning electronic microscopy observations ...

Lithium sulfur (Li-S) batteries offer higher theoretical specific capacity, lower cost and enhanced safety compared to current Li-ion battery technology. However, the multiple reactions and phase changes in the sulfur ...
Carbon-encapsulated cobalt (Co@C) nanoparticles, with a tunable structure, were synthesized by chemical vapor deposition using Co nanoparticles as the catalyst and supported on a water-soluble substrate (sodium chloride), ...
Hexagonal ZnO nanoplates were synthesized via simple one-pot hydrothermal reaction of Zn(CH3COO)2 and CO(NH2)2. XRD, SEM, and HRTEM were used to investigate the composition and microstructure of the material. Together with ...
A hierarchical MoS2 architecture composed
of nanosheet-assembled microspheres with an
expanded interplanar spacing of the (002) planes was
successfully prepared via a simple hydrothermal
reaction. Electron microscopy ...

Lithium sulphur (Li/S) batteries are currently receiving significant attention as an alternative power source for
zero-emission vehicles and advanced electronic devices due to the very high theoretical specific capacity ...
ZnO nanorods directly grown on copper foil substrate were obtained via hydrothermal method without using templates. Structure and morphology of the as-prepared ZnO nanorods were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning ...
