This invention discloses a three-dimensional self-supporting
electrode, its preparation method, and a
lithium-
ion battery. The preparation method includes the following steps: dissolving
resorcinol and
formaldehyde in a
mixed solution of
ethanol and water, adding
ammonia, and stirring until fully mixed to obtain an
organic polymer solution; adding an iron-containing compound to the
organic polymer solution and stirring until fully dissolved to obtain a precursor solution; transferring the solution to a reaction vessel, placing a three-dimensional conductive substrate in the reaction vessel for
hydrothermal reaction to obtain a three-dimensional self-supporting substrate containing an iron / carbon precursor;
drying the three-dimensional self-supporting substrate containing the iron / carbon precursor, annealing it in an
inert atmosphere, and naturally cooling it to
room temperature to obtain a three-dimensional self-supporting
electrode loaded with in-situ carbon-coated nano-Fe3O4. The preparation method provided by this invention is simple and low-cost, and the three-dimensional self-supporting
electrode exhibits good cycle stability and rate performance, making it suitable for large-scale industrial production and widely applicable in the field of
lithium-
ion battery materials.
