A process is provided comprising submerging a substrate in an electrochemical deposit bath having at least a metal salt and saccharin. In embodiments, the film is further treated with anodization, and in other cases chemical vapor deposition. Films are also provided formed by the disclosed processes. The films are nanoporous on at least a portion of a surface of the films. Also disclosed are electronic devices having the films disclosed, including lithium-ion batteries, storage devices, supercapacitors, electrodes, semiconductors, fuel cells, and/or combinations thereof.

Production of nanoporous films

A polymer derived ceramic precursor is selected and mixed with a contaminated recycled electrode material or materials. The mixture is pyrolyzed to form a ceramic or ceramic-carbon composite, reduced to a powder and formed into an electrode of a battery, such as a lithium ion battery.
