For the synthesis of polyaniline designed for battery electrodes, Fe(C104)3 and Cu(BF4)2 are preferable as oxidizing agents, because the products contain CIO 4 or BFi anions, which are commonly used in lithium secondary batteries. Polyaniline synthesized by Cu(Bp4)2 has a fibrous morphology [57],...

Shortly following the widespread commercialization of lithium-ion hatteries as power sources in portable electronic devices, nanotechnology came to the forefront of research and development in materials science. Nanostmctured materials, which have dimensions on the order of 100 nm or less, have unique properties that are often significantly different from their hulk (or micronscale) counterparts. Because of these unique properties, the use of nanomaterials in lithium-ion battery electrodes offers the potential for improved performance in terms of charge-storage capacity, rate capability, and cycle life. The increasing capabilities for synthesis of electrode materials as nanoparticles, nanocrystallites, or nanocomposites has resulted in an explosion of research activity in this area and, in several cases, commercialization of batteries containing nanostructured electrodes.
