“…3 TiO 2 -based anodes are most promising materials for LIBs to replace carbon due to fast lithium insertion/extraction kinetics, environmentally-friendly behavior, low volume change (less than 4%) and therewith high structural stability as well as improved safety issues and low costs [3][4][5][6][7][8][9] .…”

“…Alternatively, the fabrication of mixed oxide nanotubes by anodic oxidation of Ti-based alloys is even more promising, as it bundles the advantage to form different metal oxides from one 4 starting material. Due to their interesting properties, various binary and ternary Ti-based systems have recently been explored regarding the formation of mixed oxide nanotubes.…”

Electrode material characteristics need to be improved urgently to fulfill the requirements for high performance lithium ion batteries. Herein, we report the use of the two-phase alloy Ti 80 Co 20 for the growth of Ti-Co-O nanotubes (NT) employing an anodic oxidation process in a formamide-based electrolyte containing NH 4 F. The surface morphology and the current density for the initial nanotube formation are found to be dependent on the crystal structure of the alloy phases. XPS analyses of the grown nanotube arrays along with the oxidation state of the involved elements confirmed the formation of TiO 2 /CoO nanotubes under the selected process conditions.The electrochemical performance of the grown nanotubes was evaluated against a Li/Li + electrode at different current densities of 10 -400 µA cm -2 . The results revealed that TiO 2 /CoO nanotubes prepared at 60 V exhibited the highest areal capacity of ~ 600 µAh cm -2 (i.e. 315 mAh g -1 ) at a current density of 10 µA cm -2 . At higher current densities TiO 2 /CoO nanotubes showed nearly doubled lithium ion intercalation and a coulombic efficiency of 96 % after 100 cycles compared to lower effective TiO 2 nanotubes prepared under identical conditions. The observed enhancement in the electrochemical performances could be attributed to increasing Li ion diffusion resulting from the presence of CoO nanotubes and the high surface area of the grown oxide tubes. The TiO 2 /CoO electrodes preserved their tubular structure after electrochemical cycling with only little changes in morphology.

“…The interest in this material has led to a tremendous amount of works devoted to the successful preparation of nanoTiO 2 by all kinds of techniques: hydrothermal [281,282], sol-gel [283][284][285][286][287], soft template [288], precipitation or solid state method followed by ion exchange [289,290], urea-mediated hydrolysis/precipitation route [291], anodization [292,293], molten salt method [294], synthesis by ionic liquids [295] and electrospinning technique [294,296]. These syntheses of TiO 2 have been reviewed and discussed in [73,297].…”

Lithium-ion batteries (LiBs) have made considerable progress since the first commercial one by Sony in 1991, which had LiCoO 2 and graphite as active elements of the positive and negative electrodes, respectively. The LiBs are now the primary energy storage devices in the transportation and communications, from portable use in computers, up to electric and hybrid vehicles. More recently, they have also been used as back-up supply units, frequency regulators (load leveling) to integrate on smart grids the electricity produced by windmills and photovoltaic plants (for a recent review, see [1]). These applications require high energy densities, high power, and safety among others. Considerable efforts have been made to propose other electrodes to fulfill these requirements. We have recently reviewed the works and progress concerning the materials for the positive electrode [2][3][4][5][6]. The present work is devoted to the materials for the negative electrode counterpart. It is common to use the terminology anode and cathode for the negative and positive electrodes, respectively, although the electrodes play alternatively the role of anode and cathode during the charge and discharge process. We shall use this terminology in the following for conciseness purposes only.An ideal active anode element should fulfill the following requirements as follows: (1) It must be light and accommodate as much Li as possible to optimize the gravimetric capacity. (2) Its redox potential with respect to Li 0 /Li + must be as small as possible at any Li-concentration. The reason is that this potential is subtracted to the redox potential of the cathode material to give the overall voltage of the cell, and smaller voltage means smaller energy density. (3) It must possess good electronic and ionic conductivities since faster motion of the lithium ions and the electrons also mean higher power density of the cell. (4) It must not be soluble in the solvents of the electrolyte and not react with the lithium salt. (5) It must be safe, i.e. avoid any thermal runaway of the battery, a criterion that is not independent of the previous one, but deserves special attention, especially for use in transportation such as electric vehicles and planes. (6) It must be cheap and environmentally friendly. The different materials proposed as anode elements for Li-ion batteries must be discussed with respect to these different criteria.The graphite is still the most used anode material and is still the reference. The first works giving evidence of the insertion of lithium in graphite date from 1955 [7], confirmed by the synthesis of LiC 6 in 1965 [8]. The synthesis of LiC 6 , however, was not obtained by electrochemical process at that time. Another decade was spent before Besenhard and Eichinger discovered the reversible intercalation of lithium in graphite, proposing this material as an anode in 1976 [9,10]. Increasing the Li content in LiC 6 is possible [8], but no reversible cycling beyond LiC 6 could ever be obtained. The graphite anode can thus be cyc...
