摘要

Electrode materials exhibiting a low volume expansion rate during charge and discharge cycles are advantageous for lithium-ion battery applications, as they minimize the risk of lithium dendrite formation and enhance the cycle stability and safety performance of the battery. One-dimensional nanostructures offer several advantages over traditional powder materials in the field of electrochemistry, including enhanced charge transport and increased surface area interaction. In this work, one-dimensional Y2Ti2O7 nanotubes were synthesized via a single-nozzle electrospinning technique at 800°C. These nanotubes feature an outer diameter of approximately 200 nm, an inner diameter close to 150 nm, and a thickness of roughly 30 nm. Their electrochemical properties were compared with those of Y2Ti2O7 nanopowders for applications in lithium-ion batteries. When subjected to a high current density of 5000 mA/g, the Y2Ti2O7 nanotubes and nanopowders demonstrate specific capacities of 271 mAh/g and 128 mAh/g, respectively, along with impressive cycling performance.
