Abstract
The anodic properties of antimony trioxide (Sb2O3) nanowires were investigated as electrode material for sodium-ion battery. Sb2O3 nanowires were prepared via a mild-condition, solvothermal route based on the hydrolysis of antimony trichloride (SbCl3) in alcohol aqueous solution. The uniform morphology and crystal phases of Sb2O3 nanowires are confirmed by scanning electronic microscopy, transmission electronic microscopy, and X-ray diffraction. The electrochemical performance of Sb2O3 nanowire anodes was studied and the material exhibits a high reversible capacity of 230 mAh/g which is attributed to the reversible complex conversion–alloying reactions between antimony trioxide and sodium.
