Abstract

A free-standing Fe3O4/rebar graphene (FRG) composite film was obtained through solvothermal method. The microstructure, phases, electrochemical performance of the composite used as anode in lithium ion battery have been characterized by SEM, TEM, XRD, Raman, FT-IR and electrochemical measurements. In rebar graphene (RG), the single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and graphene are interconnected via π–π stacking and covalent bonding. SWCNTs can keep the graphene in RG from fracture and maintain the integrity of the composite electrodes during lithiation/delithiation. The absence of additive and conductive agent can enhance electrochemical performance of FRG composite by losing redundant weight. The FRG composite exhibits an outstanding rate capability with an excellent cycling performance (1038 mAh g−1 after 100 cycles at 100 mA g−1).
