One-dimensional Na2(TiO)SiO4 (SNTO) nanotubes have been successfully synthesized by a straightforward hydrothermal method with the assistance of cetyltetramethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB). Herein, the influence of the Si/Ti ratio on the morphology or composition of SNTO hollow nanotubes has been investigated, and the result shows that the optimum molar ratio of the optimal morphology is 1 : 1. The prepared samples were first applied as anodes in lithium ion batteries (LIBs) for the time being and superior rate capability, ultralong and stable cycling lifespan performance were obtained. The facile and uniquely designed one-dimensional SNTO nanotube electrodes delivered a high reversible capacity of 121.9 mA h g-1 after 5000 cycles at a high current of 1.0 A g-1 without significant attenuation. The superior electrochemical properties are attributed to their special nanotube structure with a high specific surface area, which could shorten the ion/electron transport pathway, and increase the number of active sites and the contact area between the electrolyte and active electrodes. Meanwhile, the kinetic analysis of the electrochemical behaviors of SNTO hollow nanotube electrodes was carried out by performing calculations using cyclic voltammograms recorded at different scan rates, and the results showed that the obtained reversible capacity is mainly due to the capacitive contribution. This work expands the types of anode materials for LIBs, which will further promote the development of LIBs.
