Abstract
Searching for new cheap encapsulating materials to decrease the solubility of organic small molecules as the cathode materials in electrolytes and improve the performance of organic lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is very important and highly desirable. In this research, we found that a novel cheap biomass carbon (named as PPL), prepared by pyrolyzing calyxes of Physalis Peruviana L, can efficiently encapsulate calix[4]quinone to form composites, which can be used as cathodes in LIBs. The initial discharge capacity of the as-fabricated battery was 437 mAh g-1 and could maintain 228 mAh g-1 after 100 cycles. Even at 1 C, the discharge capacity was still 217 mAh g-1 .
