Abstract: 

The reversible insertion of lithium into electrodes based on amorphous boron has been studied. The reversible capacity upon the lithium insertion has been found to be about 750 mA⋅h/g. The most efficient in terms of specific capacity are the electrodes containing graphene as a conductive additive.
