"Rational design of Ag nanowires growth engineered conductivity chain t" by Jian Wang, Yifan Liu et al.
The low intrinsic conductivity of carbon monofluoride (CFx) extremely limits the high-power application of lithium/carbon monofluoride (Li/CFx) primary batteries. Herein, silver nanowires were grown in situ on the surface of CFx material by an aldehyde reduction method in polyhydric alcohol. The interface interaction between silver nanowires (Ag NWs) and the surface of CFx material was studied. Ag NWs@CFx hybrids modulate the electronic structure of CFx and enhance the electrochemical activity of C–F bonds, thus increasing the availability of F atoms to participate in the discharge reaction....
