Ti3C2Tx, a new type of two-dimensional material, is a prospective anode material in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) for its low lithium-ion diffusion barrier, high conductivity and many other excellent properties. In this paper, multilayer Ti3C2Tx and delaminated Ti3C2Tx samples are prepared by etching Ti3AlC2 powder with HF and [Formula: see text], respectively. We explore the application of the two samples in LIBs, and analyze their electrochemical behavior and kinetic mechanism. At the current densities of 0.1[Formula: see text]A[Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text], the delaminated Ti3C2Tx electrode delivered higher capacities of 255[Formula: see text]mAh[Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text] than multilayer Ti3C2Tx electrode (100[Formula: see text]mAh[Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text]). Even after 1000 cycles, the specific capacity of the delaminated Ti3C2Tx is still up to 205[Formula: see text]mAh[Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text] at 1[Formula: see text]A[Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text]. This work proves the great potential of the delaminated Ti3C2Tx for lithium-ion storage.

AbstractOne-dimensional (1D) α-LiFeO2 nanorods are successfully prepared via a low-temperature solid-state reaction from α-FeOOH nanorods synthesized by hydrothermal process and used as cathode materials in lithium-ion batteries. As cathode material for lithium-ion batteries, the nanorods can achieve a high initial specific capacity of 165.85 mAh/g at 0.1 C for which a high capacity retention of 81.65% can still be obtained after 50 cycles. The excellent performance and cycling stability are attributed to the unique 1D nanostructure, which facilitates the rapid electron exchange and fast lithium-ion diffusion between electrolyte and cathode materials.
