MoS2 decorated lignin-derived hierarchical mesoporous carbon hybrid nanospheres with exceptional Li-ion battery cycle stability

We developed a feasible self-assembly and carbonization method to prepare lignin-derived porous carbon nanosphere (PCN) and its efficient embedment of MoS2 without any additives. The obtained hybrid nanocomposite provides a possible route to develop high performance Li-ion battery from natural biomass or organizational structures.
