Macroporous SnS microspheres with open pores were prepared using a spray pyrolysis process followed by a simple sulfidation process. The macroporous SnO2 microspheres prepared from the precursor solution including tin ions and polystyrene beads transformed into the macroporous and phase-pure SnS microspheres by sulfidation at an optimized temperature of 350 °C. The sulfidation process of the SnO2 microspheres without open pores obtained by spray pyrolysis formed SnS?SnO2 and SnS?Sn composite microspheres with filled structures at sulfidation times of 9 and 24 h, respectively. The discharge capacities of the macroporous SnS microspheres with open pores and dense SnS-SnO2 and SnS?Sn microspheres for the 50th cycle at a current density of 0.5 A g-1 were 364, 231, and 264 mA h g-1, respectively. The macroporous SnS microspheres with open pores showed higher capacities and superior rate capability for sodium ion storage compared to dense SnS?SnO2 and SnS?Sn microspheres.
