Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>The power of spray‐dried TiO₂ in LIBs</bold>: TiO₂(B)/anatase is synthesized by spray drying and investigated as negative electrode material in Li‐ion batteries. It exhibits excellent Li‐ion storage performances, especially at high charge/discharge rates. The presence of the β phase of TiO₂ improves Li‐ion diffusivity. Additionally, the scalable synthesis method also allows for Nb‐doping, which assists in the maintenance of the electronic conductivity as the thickness of film increases.<boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg36t01w5x" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
