Özet

As an essential class of anode materials, the synthesis and characterization of CoS@ZIF-12-C composite anode materials are reported. The two-step synthesis of CoS nanoparticles embedded in N-doped porous carbon by using a metal-organic framework (MOF) as the template. After structural characterization of CoS@ZIF-12-C composite materials, the main phase was found as CoS with symmetry of P63mmc. Benefiting from the CoS embedded in porous carbon structure, the half Li-ion battery cell tests of CoS@ZIF-12-C composite materials were performed by a 2-electrode method using CR2032 cells, and the capacities of the cells were measured for 200 cycles using 300 mAg(-1) and 500 cycles using 1000 mAg(-1). The first discharge capacities of the cells for 1000 mAg(-1) were found as 458, 1178, and 815 mAhg(-1) for CoS@ZIF-12-C-T, T = 700, 800, and 900 degrees C, respectively. An unexpected capacity increase was observed for the CoS@ZIF-12-C-700 and CoS@ZIF-12-C-900 half cells during the cycling. Ex-situ x-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), and cyclic voltammetry (CV) analysis were performed after cycling of the cells for explanations of the capacity increase. Ex-situ XRD analysis of these cells showed phase transitions from crystalline to amorphous type structure, and ex-situ FTIR proves the preservation of the CoS phase during the cycling. A redox reaction mechanism was suggested to explain the cells' battery performance by ex-situ XRD analysis.
