A MoC/C composite material was conveniently synthesized via self-polymerization and pyrolysis. MoC nanoparticles are evenly distributed upon the carbon matrix and feature a cross-linked structure that can efficiently restrain the aggregation of MoC nanoparticles and relieve the volume alteration during the charging/discharging process. Moreover, the carbon material highly improved conductivity and reduced charge transfer resistance of the MoC/C-based electrode; this ensured its long-term stability with superior reversible capacity. At a current density of 1 A g⁻¹, the MoC/C electrode delivered a reversible specific capacity of 550 mAh g⁻¹ even after 500 cycles, demonstrating excellent electrochemical performance. This MoC-based electrode with an ultralong life cycle could be utilized as an anode material for next-generation lithium-ion batteries.

MoC / C复合材料可通过自聚合和热解方便地合成。MoC纳米颗粒均匀分布在碳基质上，并具有可有效抑制MoC纳米颗粒聚集并缓解充电/放电过程中体积变化的交联结构。此外，碳材料极大地提高了MoC / C基电极的导电性并降低了电荷转移电阻；这确保了其长期稳定性，并具有出色的可逆容量。在1 A g ^-1的电流密度下，MoC / C电极的可逆比容量为550 mAh g ^-1即使经过500次循环，仍具有出色的电化学性能。这种具有超长使用寿命的基于MoC的电极可以用作下一代锂离子电池的负极材料。
