Fabrication of nest-like TiO 2 hollow microspheres and its application for lithium ion batteries with high-rate performance

Spontaneous redox reaction-mediated interfacial charge transfer in titanium dioxide/graphene oxide nanoanodes for rapid and durable lithium storage

“…Since the ion diffusion distance can be significantly shortened in nanostructures, TiO 2 nanoanodes thus improve ion insertion/deinsertion kinetics. In this regard, various TiO 2 nanostructures, such as nanowires, 14 nanorods, 15 and nanotubes, 16 have been designed and applied to enhance ion storage performance. However, due to the high surface energy of nanostructures, TiO 2 nanoanodes are prone to agglomeration during battery operations, resulting in poor stability and low capacity.…”

Biopolymer‐assisted Synthesis of P‐doped TiO2 Nanoparticles for High‐performance Lithium‐ion Batteries: A Comprehensive Study

“…[19] The advantage of nanoparticles can be preserved by employing various hierarchical nanostructures such as microspheres, porous nanostructures, etc. [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27] which effectively prevents the aggregation of nanoparticles. However, the preparation techniques of these nanostructures generally involve specific reagents, extended reaction durations time and complex process.…”

“…However, self‐aggregation during the charge/discharge process remains a major problem which causes a huge capacity drop [19] . The advantage of nanoparticles can be preserved by employing various hierarchical nanostructures such as microspheres, porous nanostructures, etc [20–27] . which effectively prevents the aggregation of nanoparticles.…”

Pt‐Functionalized Nanoporous TiO2 Nanoparticles With Enhanced Gas Sensing Performances Toward Acetone

“…While the response of ZnO based gas sensor reduces about 41.25% in half month comparing with the initial response value during the long‐term stability test; SnO 2 based gas sensor decreases obviously in wet ambient condition; WO 3 is usually used as gas‐sensing materials to detect nitrogen oxide, NH3 and ethylene . As a typical wide‐band ( E g = 3.2 eV for the anatase phase) semiconductor, TiO 2 has been extensively studied in the fields of heterogeneous photocatalysis, lithium‐ion batteries and solar cells, because of its low cost, good chemical stability, and non‐toxicity when comparing with other metal oxides …”
