The invention discloses a method for preparing nanometer
anode materials for
lithium and
selenium batteries. The method includes steps of (1),
coating a layer of carbon-containing polymers on
selenide; (2),
drying the
selenide coated with the carbon-containing polymers, then placing the
selenide in a furnace, filling the furnace with
inert gas and carbonizing the selenide to generate carbon-coated selenide; (3), carrying out reaction on the carbon-coated selenide and solution with oxidizing substances (such as trivalent Fe<3+> ions), oxidizing
selenium ions in the selenide to obtain elemental
selenium and
drying the elemental selenium to obtain the carbon-coated selenium
electrode material with redundant internal spaces. The method has the advantages that sufficient spaces can be provided for selenium lithiation by selenium / cavity / carbon composite structures, polyselenide of
lithium can be constrained in carbon spaces, and the electric
conductivity and the
electron transport performance of the materials can be improved by carbon
layers; the problems of
volume expansion of selenium and shuttling of poly-
selenium compound in
charge and discharge procedures can be effectively solved by the aid of the method, the cycle stability and the rate capability of the
lithium and selenium batteries can be greatly improved, the volume
energy density of the batteries can be increased, and the method has extremely high application potential.
