A carbon-coated TiO2(B) nanosheet composite for lithium ion batteries†
Abstract
The carbon-coated TiO2(B) nanosheet composite synthesized by one-step hydrolysis of TiCl3 followed by vacuum annealing and air annealing delivers outstanding electrochemical performance as a negative electrode for Li-ion batteries, i.e. reversible capacity above 150 mA h g−1 at 30 C (10 A g−1).
