Abstract

Abstract: The world is looking for the production of smart and green energy from fossils and renewable energy resources. In this regard the production and storage are the key factor for marinating the balance in energy production and consumption. Batteries are considered to be one of the most important components in these energy resources. Presently many electronics and electric vehicles are powered by batteries. Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have currently faced a few limitations deterring the development in battery technologies. Lithium metals emerge recently, but highly corrosive, the catastrophic dendrites, the pressure induced in order to maintain the contact between cathode and anode etc. Though there are many new composite materials reported recently to address many of the mention issues. Recently carbon and its derivative has been found to be the best anode materials for LIBs. An attempt has been made to enhance the functionality and durability of LIBs, because their pervasiveness is expected to rise. In this review we consider transition metal oxides with graphene as anode material and discussed various development towards the fabrication of LIBs. Researchers have demonstrated that a particular graphene composite can be added to the anode of LIBs to dramatically improve its operational stability, allowing for the development of significantly more potent, long-lasting LIBs.
