Lithium-Ion Battery Materials: A Comprehensive Review

Lithium-ion batteries prevail over the market for portable electronics due to their high energy density, long cycle life, and relatively low self-discharge rate. Nonetheless, the demand for lithium-ion batteries in emerging applications such as electric vehicles and grid storage has placed increased pressure on the supply chain of vital battery mat

Synthesis and Characterization of SWCNT-Functionalized Fe3O4 Nanoparticles

In this study, we describe a novel strategy for the synthesis and characterization of single-walled nanotubes (SWCNTs) modified with iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4|Fe2O3|FeO). The preparation process involves a two-step approach, first immobilizing SWCNTs onto a suitable substrate and then depositing Fe3O4 nanoparticles via a hydrothermal method.
