    Fabrication of AgWO4/CNT nanomaterial for high capacity lithium ion battery
    (Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2022) Brijesh, K.; Prajil, M.K.; Nagaraja, H.S.
    Herein, we report the synthesis of AgWO4 nanomaterial (AWN) and Single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) wrapped AgWO4 nanomaterial (AWNC) via the solvothermal method and is used as an anode material for lithium-ion battery (LIB). The AWNC exhibits, 1202 mAh g?1 discharge capacity at 0.1 A g?1 current density with good cyclic stability and 100% columbic efficiency even after 500 cycles. The AWNC electrode shows a reversible capacity of 594, 521, 252, 143 and 84 mAh g?1 at 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5 and 1 A g?1 respectively. The 543 mAh g?1 reversible capacity recovered at 0.1 A g?1 after cycling at several current densities suggests the good rate performance of the AWNC electrode. The decent electrochemical performance of the AWNC is due to the synergetic effect between AgWO4 and SWCNT. AWNC shows improved rate capability, better cycling stability, reversible capacity and capacity retention than that of AWN. These results suggest that AWNC is an exciting anode material for LIB. © 2020 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.
