Abstract
The electrochemical behavior of poly(phenylvinylsilylcarbodiimide)-derived SiCN ceramics as anode material for lithium-ion batteries is reported here for the first time. The novel carbon-rich silicon carbonitride (SiCN) ceramics have been synthesized by the thermal treatment of poly(phenylvinylsilylcarbodiimide) under argon atmosphere at five temperatures, namely 1100, 1300, 1500, 1700 and 2000 °C. The SiCN electrodes were prepared without any conducting additives and were tested in electrochemical two electrodes cell using cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic techniques. The capacity of the carbon-rich SiCN samples was found to be stable upon galvanostatic cycling and reaches almost 300 mAh/g for the sample prepared at 1300 °C with oxygen as the impurity. The dependence of the microstructure, especially of the crystallinity of the segregated carbon phase and of the oxygen impurities on the electrochemical behavior of the SiCN material, was analysed. At all temperatures of thermolysis, the free carbon phase has been identified as “soft carbon”.
