Abstract

The anode material Fe2O3/C composite is prepared by a solid phase method. The as-obtained Fe2O3/C composite was investigated by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electrochemical measurements. XRD results indicate the presence of hematite. SEM observations shows nano particles of Fe2O3/C composite and illustrate the good combination of Fe2O3 and carbon, Fe2O3 was well enwrapped by carbon. The electrochemical performance of the composite is good. In the potential range of 3.00-0.01 V, it delivers initial charge capacity of 314.6 mAh g-1 at 100 mA g1, and 83.8% of initial capacity is retained even after 20 cycles. Meanwhile, the role of carbon was also discussed. The results indicate that it could be used as a promising anode material for Li-ion batteries.
