Synthesis of Nano Composite TiO2 Nanotube/C as Anode Materials for Li Ion Batteries

Lithium rechargeable batteries are now well established as power sources for portable equipment. The C-doped TiO2-NTAs are fabricated by rapid annealing of as-anodized TiO2-NTAs in argon. The residual Ethylene glycol absorbed on the nanotube wall acts as the carbon source and no foreign carbon precursor is thus needed. The TNT/C composite as anode materials in li ion battery was tested by charge/discharge galvanostatic and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy electrochemical experiments. This component of TiO2/Carbon was characterized by XRD and the morphology of titanium oxide nanotube/C was studied by scanning electron microscope (SEM).
