Abstract

TiO2 nanoflakes were prepared by hydrothermal precipitation method using Ti(SO4)2 as titanium source and NaOH solution as alkaline medium. Their surface morphology, grain size measured after high temperature calcination and effect on the electrochemical performance of Li ion battery were discussed. TiO2 nanoflakes were characterizated by means of transmission electron microscopy(TEM), X-ray powder diffraction(XRD), N2 adsorption- desorption isothermal assay, cyclic voltammetry(CV) and cycle performance test. The result of electrochemical performance test shows that the prepared TiO2 nanoflakes have high discharge specific capacity and good cycle performance. Discharge specific capacity for the first circle at the discharge rate of 0.1 C is 261.5 mA·h·g-1. After 90 cycles, the discharge capacity reduces to 172.2 mA·h·g-1.
