SiO-induced thermal instability and interplay between graphite and SiO in graphite/SiO composite anode.Silicon monoxide (SiO), which exhibits better cyclability compared to silicon while delivering higher capacity than that of graphite, is an adequate material for the development of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) having higher energy densities.  Here, SiO-induced thermal instability of the graphite/SiO composite anode is investigated.  We reveal that under thermal exposure, SiO accelerates the loss of lithium inventory and concomitantly facilitates the lithium de-intercalation from graphite.
