In this work, we demonstrate that a new mechanical attrition process can be used to prepare nanosilicon powder from metallurgical grade silicon lumps. Composite Li-ion anode made from this nanometer-size powder was found to have a high reversible capacity of 2400 mAh g(-1) and an improved cycling stability compared to micrometer-sized powder. It is proposed that improved battery cycling performance is ascribed to the nanoscale silicon particles which supresses the volume expansion owing to its superplasticity. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V.
