Synthesis of porous layered double hydroxide layer and application to anode of next generation secondary batteries

Abstract

Ever since the inception of primary cells, secondary batteries have assumed a pivotal role in our society by serving as crucial energy storage and supply units across a wide array of devices and systems integral to our daily lives. Against the backdrop of escalating global concerns pertaining to environmental degradation and energy scarcity, there exists an ever-growing imperative for the development of eco-friendly and sustainable energy systems. It is within this context that electric vehicles and large-scale energy storage systems emerge as viable solutions, effectively addressing these imperatives. Nevertheless, to render these technologies more efficient, the attainment of high-energy density, prolonged lifespan, and fast charging capabilities becomes imperative. This article presents a novel approach centered around a 2D nanostructure, encompassing its design and synthesis methodology, with the overarching goal of establishing a stable energy storage system capable of satisfying these aforementioned requisites. The first chapter provides an overview of the prevailing challenges associated with existing secondary battery systems while highlighting the manifold advantages offered by 2D nanomaterials. Building upon this foundation, the second chapter delves into a comprehensive exploration of research endeavors aimed at enhancing electrode stability through the synthesis and implementation of 2D nanomaterials. Furthermore, this paper offers an invaluable compendium of design methodologies and strategic insights pertinent to the integration of 2D nanomaterials within the domain of next-generation secondary battery systems, thereby furnishing an invaluable roadmap for future material advancements in the realm of energy storage systems.
