Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) loaded with Ag and TiO2 nanoparticles (Ag–TiO2/CNTs) are a composite showing promise as an anode material in lithium-ion batteries. Here we prepare Ag–TiO2/CNTs via hydrolysis and reduction processes. The morphology, structure, and electrochemical performance of the composite were investigated by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and a variety of electrochemical techniques. The results show that the TiO2 and Ag nanoparticles were uniformly deposited on the surface of CNTs with crystallite sizes of ∼12 and 30nm, respectively. The Ag–TiO2/CNTs anode materials showed superior cycling stability and a high reversible capacity of 172mAh/g after 30 cycles. Ag addition not only increases the electronic conductivity of the composites, but also allows convenient transfer of Li-ion in the composite structure.
