Recently, Ti3C2Tx MXene has drawn enormous attentions in Li-ion batteries (LIBs) due to its two dimensional (2D) open architecture, superior conductivity and low Li+ diffusion barrier. However, further applications of Ti(3)C(2)Tx MXene are seriously limited by its moderate capacities. Herein, we fabricate SnOx@Ti3C2 composites, where ultrathin SnOx nanosheets (NSs) of similar to 5 nm in thickness are loaded uniformly on the interlayers and/or surfaces of Ti3C2 matrix, through a facile hydrothermal method towards efficient lithium storage. Benefiting from ultrathin feature and large capacity of SnOx NSs, metallic conductivity of Ti3C2 matrix, strong affinity between SnOx and Ti3C2, the resulted SnOx@Ti3C2 composites exhibit long-duration cycling stability and superior rate behaviors. Competitively, a large reversible capacity of similar to 540mAh g(-1) still can be kept even after 1000 cycles at a current rate of 500 mA g(-1). Corresponding quantitative analysis reveals that capacitive and diffusion-controlled behaviors co-contribute to striking Li+ storage properties of the hybrid anodes, wherein the former dominates. This work demonstrates that the MXene-based materials hold a significant promising for advanced next-generation LIBs. (C) 2018 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
