    Abstract:

    The markets for portable devices and electric vehicles are constantly expanding, which generates a great need for cutting-edge battery technologies. However, current Li-ion batteries (LIBs) still cannot meet such a huge demand due to charge/discharge rate and service life. Moreover, the sluggish low temperature performance of LIBs restricts their application in mountainous regions and cold climates. The majority of the low-temperature restrictions are caused by features of the graphite anode. To solve this issue, numerous investigations have been conducted to develop composite anode materials. Although low-temperature performance of LIBs has improved, the process for synthesizing these materials is complex and expensive to commercialize. Therefore, we propose low cost biomass derived N-doped carbon as alternative anode material with enhanced low temperature performance of LIBs. The carbonaceous material was prepared by facile annealing date seeds with urea in the inert atmosphere. The as-obtained carbon material was characterized by X-ray diffractometry, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The electrochemical characteristics of the prepared anode show 6 times higher and more stable capacity than commercial graphite at -20 °C. The improved properties can be attributed to the porous structure of the prepared N-doped carbon, which shortens the diffusion path and provides excellent anodic properties.
