Lithium dihydrate, magnesium acetate and tetrabutyl titanate were used as the main raw materials. This study reveals that Mg^2+ has influences on the spherical structure, crystal development of Li4Ti5O12 and the electrochemical performances. The hollow spherical structure is composed of nano-sheet structure and the nano-sheet structure can be affected by the Mg^2+ content. For Li4-xMgxTi5 O12, the sheet structure can be refined with the increment of Mg^2+ content when x value is 0-0.1 and coarsen with the increment of Mg^2+ content when x value is 0.1-0.2. The hollow spherical Li4Ti5O12 powders prepared by hydrothermal method have better performance. The optimal Mgdoped amount of hydrothermal method is 0.1. At 0.1 C, the first discharge capacity of Li3.9Mg0.1Ti5O12 prepared through hydrothermal method at 0.1 C and 10 cycles is 182 and 178 mA hg^-1, respectively.展开更多
