Samples were characterized with X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy dispersive analysis by X-ray (EDAX). X-ray diffraction structure determination showed that this new phase had the composition of V3O7·H2O and crystallized with orthorhombic symmetry. SEM and TEM tests showed that the samples were uniform straight rods with the diameter range from around 100 to 300 nm and the length over 10 μm. The chemical compositions of the samples were determined with EDXA. The electrochemical tests of samples (titanates nanotubes, V2O5 and VOx / Titanate-CNRs) prove that VOx / Titanate-CNRs exhibit a better electrochemical performance.展开更多

The compositions and morphologies of the products were characterized by XRD, TEM, IR and TG-DTA. The results show that Co(OH)2 nanorods can be obtained only in one-step by means of surfactant-assisted soft-template solid-state chemical reaction method. The surfactant (PEG-400) plays a soft-template like role in the process of Co(OH)2 nanorods formation and leads nanocrystallines to grow along certain direction into nanorods.展开更多
