摘要
Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) coated with a smooth and uniform tin oxide (SnO2) layers of different thickness were prepared by a novel thioglycolic acid assisted one-step wet chemical method. The coatings were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The thickness of the SnO2 coatings can be easily controlled by changing the synthesis conditions, such as pH value of the solution and hydrolysis time. The electrochemical properties of the SnO2/MWCNTs composites as anode materials for lithium batteries were studied by galvanostatic method. The composites showed high charge capacities and good durability against decay. This could be ascribed to the good dispersion, thin layer and small particle size of SnO2 on MWCNTs.
