Abstract
In this paper mesoporous SnO2 nanospheres with an average diameter of about 83Â nm, composed of many tiny primary particles (â¼10Â nm) and holes, are synthesized on a large scale by a simple hydrothermal route. The as-prepared mesoporous SnO2 nanospheres were uniformly coated with carbon by a further hydrothermal treatment in glucose aqueous solution. As anode materials for lithium-ion batteries, the core-shell SnO2/C nanocomposites exhibit a markedly improved cycling performance.
