چکیده

در این پژوهش میکروکره‌های Cr2O3/C با استفاده از روش سولوترمال به صورت یک مرحله‌ای برای اولین بار تهیه شد. از آنالیز پراش پرتو ایکس (XRD) و میکروسکوپ الکترونی روبشی SEM)) جهت مشخصه یابی محصولات سنتز شده مورد استفاده قرار گرفت. تعیین مقدار کربن در کامپوزیت با استفاده از آنالیز حرارتی (TGA) انجام شد. نتایج نشان می­دهد، کربن در کامپوزیت به صورت آمورف است و تنها پیک پراش Cr2O3را در الگوی XRD می­توان مشاهده نمود. اندازه بلورک‌های Cr2O3با استفاده از روش ویلیامسون-هال برابر 36 نانومتر محاسبه شد. محتوای کربن درکامپوزیت برابر 63 درصد وزنی محاسبه گردید. تصاویر حاصل از SEM نشان می‌دهد که سطح کره‌های تولید شده نسبتا صاف و میانگین قطر آن‌ها در حدود 2 میکرون می‌باشد. اندازه و مورفولوژی کره‌های کربنی می‌تواند با تغییر در شرایط واکنش سولوترمال کنترل شود و در محدوده 7/0 تا 5/3 میکرون تغییر کند. نتایج حاصل از آزمون امپدانس الکتروشیمیایی در محلول KOH برای میکروکره‌های Cr2O3/C دلالت بر رفتار خوب خازنی این ماده دارد. بهبود خواص الکتروشیمیایی Cr2O3/C نسبت به نانوذرات Cr2O3، به وجود کربن در کامپوزیت نسبت داده شد.

چکیده [English]

Nanostructured transition metal oxides have received Special role in the production of the anode electrode in the lithium-ion batteries. In this research, a one stage method to synthesize Cr2O3/Chybrid microspheres via solvothermal method was reported. The XRD and SEM methods were used for characterization of products. The Carbon content of synthesized samples were measured by TGA method. The results showed that only Cr2O3 peaks could be observed XRD patterns, and this  indicated that the carbon in the composite was amorphous. The average crystallite size is calculated by using Williamson-Hall, 36 nm. The content of carbon in the composite was 63 wt%. The SEM images showed that the surfaces of prepared spheres were relatively smooth and Carbon microspheres had an average diameter of about 2 μm. The morphologies and sizes of the microspheres change with controlled by reaction conditions Solvothermaland in the size range of 0.7-3/5 microns changes. Electrochemical impedance in KOH solution for Cr2O3/C indicates a good behavior Capacitive to materials. Cr2O3. Improve the electrochemical properties of the composite can be attributed to amorphous carbon.
