Conductive Inks Based on a Lithium Titanate Nanotube Gel for High-Rate Lithium-Ion Batteries with Customized Configuration
Solution-processable inks based on lithium titanate with a conductive network architecture, toward high-rate lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) with a customized confi guration are developed. The inks, with tunable viscosity, are compatible for on-demand coating techniques. The lithium titanate electrode derived from these inks exhibits excellent highrate capacity (approximate to 124 mA h g(-1) at 90 degrees C, 15.7 A g(-1)) after 1000 cycles.
