The effect of particle size on the structure and electrochemical characteristics of cotton stalk biochar as an anode material for lithium-ion batteries was investigated. The study found that by changing the particle size of cotton stalk, the structure of biochar can be controlled effectively, offering a low-energy and environmentally friendly method for the preparation of carbon materials in the future.
Cotton stalk biochar (CSCs) as anode material of lithium-ion battery (LIB) is studied. The effect of particle size on structural and electrochemical characteristics of derived carbon materials were investigated. There was a sig-nificant change on the structural characteristics of pyrolytic carbon when the cotton stalk particle size was less than 200 mu m, especially the pore below 4 nm. The carbonized products obtained from cotton stalk with particle size of 100-200 and 450-2000 mu m reached the maximal interlayer spacing (0.388 nm) and pore volume (0.285 cm3g-1). Meanwhile, the better tubular structure existed in the pyrolytic carbon produced from cotton stalk with larger particle size. The biochar prepared from cotton stalk with the particle size of 450-2000 mu m exhibited the largest Li+ diffusion coefficient (1.47 x 10(-11) cm(2) s(-1)), and the best electrochemical performance, which showed a larger specific capacity of 271.7 mAh g(-1) after 100 cycles at 0.1 Ag-1. The structure of biochar can be effectively controlled through changing the particle size of cotton stalk, which provides a more low-energy and environ-mentally friendly idea for the preparation carbon materials in the future.
