RESUMEN
Recently, the development of high-rate performance lithium-ion batteries is crucial for the development of next-generation energy storage systems. Nanoarchitecturing of the electrode material is a common strategy to improve the effective Li+ diffusion transport rate. However, this method often results in a reduction of volumetric energy density and battery stability. In this work, we propose a different strategy by synthesizing submicron-sized Ti2Nb10O29 (s-TNO) as a durable high-rate anode material using a facile and scalable solution combustion method, eliminating the dependence nanoarchitectures. The s-TNO electrode material exhibits a large tunnel structure and an excellent pseudocapacitive performance. The results show that this electrode material delivers a commendable reversible capacity of 238.7 mAh g-1 at 0.5 C and retains 78.2% of its capacity after 10,000 cycles at 10 C. This work provides a valuable guide for the synthesis of submicron-structured electrode materials using the solution combustion method, particularly for high-capacity, high-rate, and high-stability electrode materials.
