Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to a method for preparing vanadium oxyphosphate nanosheets and their applications, belonging to the field of materials preparation. Background Technology
[0002] Lithium metal anodes have extremely high theoretical specific capacity (3860 mAh g). -1 Its extremely low electrochemical potential (-3.04V vs. standard hydrogen electrode) makes it the preferred anode material for next-generation high-energy-density lithium batteries. With the development of large electronic devices such as electric vehicles, further improving the energy density and power density of lithium-ion batteries has become a top priority. However, the currently widely used cathode materials are mainly lithium transition metal oxides, with actual capacities typically ranging from 140 to 170 mAh g⁻¹. -1 Furthermore, the rapid capacity decay during high-current charging and discharging is a major factor limiting battery capacity density and power density.
