Abstract

Nanostructured vanadium pentoxide (V₂O₅) crusts were facilely synthesized via the combustion of a precursor by mixing commercial V₂O₅ with molten urea. The nanocrusts were transferred to nanorods during further annealing at 630 °C. Both the V₂O₅ nanocrusts and V₂O₅ nanorods were used preliminarily as a cathode material for Li-ion batteries. Their electrode performance was highly improved compared to commercial V₂O₅.
