doi:10.3724/SP.J.1077.2013.13124

Abstract

Abstract: An effective method of using cellulosic substances (filter paper) as template was employed to prepare SnO₂ nanotubular materials examined as anode for Li-ion battery. According to XRD, SEM, TEM and HR-TEM analysis, the synthesized nanotubular materials retained morphological hierarchy of the filter paper, and each nanotube was composed of nano-sized SnO₂ ranged from 5 nm to 15 nm. At the same time, the N₂ adsorption/desorption tests show that the materials are mesoporous structure. It exhibits a stable reversible capacity of 580 mAh/g at constant current density of 100 mA/g, and the reversible capacity remains at 550 mAh/g after 60 cycles, showing a high reversible capacity and stable cycle performance as anode for Li-ion battery.

Key words: tin oxide, nanotube, natural cellulose, Li-ion batteries
