Abstract

To overcome poor interfacial stability and slow ion transport rate of Na2Ti3O7, H2Ti3O7 nanorods are synthesized by acidification of Na2Ti3O7 with low concentration of strong acid. The dominated pseudo-capacitive behavior significantly improved rate capability with fast electron and ion storage kinetics. When used as anode for sodium-ion batteries, H2Ti3O7 delivers a stable specific capacity of 103.5 mAh g-1 after 500 cycles with a capacity retention rate of 49.3%, and high rate performance (70.5 mAh g-1 at 2 A g-1).
