title: Towards flexible binderless anodes: silicon/carbon fabrics via double-nozzle electrospinning.
abstract: Flexible electrodes (C-Si/C) composed of Si/C fibers trapped in carbon fiber frames via double-nozzle electrospinning improve the cycling stability and rate capability of Si/C fabrics. Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) has been demonstrated as a superior carbon matrix for Si compared with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) annealed using the same heat-treatment process.
