β¦ Synopsis
Spherical porous vanadium pentoxide (V 2 O 5 ) phase is synthesized by a spray-pyrolysis method followed by heat-treatment, as confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction. Under high-resolution electron microscope observation, the as-prepared particles are spherical and porous, with uniform particle size. On investigation of the electrochemical properties of V 2 O 5 synthesized by this method, it is found that the initial specific capacity of the V 2 O 5 is 399 mAh g -1 , and it exhibits good cycleability during the discharge and charge processes. The experimental results suggest that V 2 O 5 synthesized by this method could be a promising electrode material for lithium-ion batteries.
