Free-standing molybdenum disulfide/graphene composite paper as a binder-and carbon-free anode for lithium-ion batteries
Two dimensional nanosheets, such as graphene and metal disulfides, have attracted a great deal of attention as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries, owing to their unique capability for lithium-ion storage. In this work, we integrate graphene and MoS2 nanosheets into a free standing film form using a simple vacuum filtration method. As-prepared composite film could be readily employed as a binder- and carbon-free anode for lithium-ion batteries, removing the polymeric binders and conductive carbon additives that are required for the preparation of conventional electrodes. In addition, the interconnected structure of graphene and MoS2 sheets provide a good electrical conductivity to the entire film electrode. When tested electrochemical performance as an anode for lithium-ion batteries, the composite film electrode exhibits superior performance compared to the exfoliated MoS2 electrode, such as 65.8% capacity retention at a high current rate of 1000 mA g(-1) and 91.1% capacity retention after 100 cycles.
