Graphene nanoscrolls encapsulated TiO2 (B) nanowires for lithium storage

Construction of Co3O4 nanotubes as high-performance anode material for lithium ion batteries

“…Du et al [16] reported Co 3 O 4 nanotubes prepared by a carbon nanotubetemplated method and their high initial capacity more than 1000 mAh g À1 . Meanwhile, TiO 2 nanowires were fabricated through a self-scrolling and template-free process by Li et al and reversible specific capacity of 153 mAh g À1 was remained after 300 cycles at 10 C [17]. Farbod et al successfully synthesized the Ge nanowire, which was highly favorable in terms of the reversible capacity, and high-rate capability [18].…”

Ethanol Oxidation Reaction Catalyzed by Palladium Nanoparticles Supported on Hydrogen‐Treated TiO2 Nanobelts: Impact of Oxygen Vacancies

“…One can see that the TiO 2 nanobelts exhibited a width of ca . 70 nm and length ranging from a few hundred nm up to several microns, along with well‐defined lattice fringes (Figure C) where the interplanar distance of 0.35 nm was consistent with the d‐spacing of the (110) crystalline planes of TiO 2 (B) . From Figure A, one can see that in Pd/TiO 2 , a number of palladium nanoparticles of about 5 nm in diameter were rather uniformly distributed on the TiO 2 nanobelt surfaces, with no apparent agglomeration.…”

Graphene‐Containing Nanomaterials for Lithium‐Ion Batteries

“…Materials recently developed include N-doped TiO 2 nanotube/N-doped graphene composites, [ 76 ] graphene-TiO 2 nanotubes (Gr-TNTs), [ 77 ] anatase TiO 2 /graphene nanosheets ( Figure 4 ), [ 78 ] graphene nanoscroll encapsulated TiO 2 nanowires, [ 79 ] and graphene-wrapped TiO 2 @Co 3 O 4 coaxial nanobelt arrays. [ 80 ] These materials provided more information on how the Li cycling properties and reaction mechanism varies for vastly different graphene-TiO 2 composites.…”
