  - Mesoporous nanocrystalline TiO2 and TiO2–V2O5 microspheres were prepared by non-hydrolytic
    sol–gel from TiCl4, VOCl3, and iPr2O at 110 °C without any solvent or additives.
    The samples were characterized by elemental analysis, X-ray diffraction, Raman
    spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, nitrogen physisorption, and impedance
    measurements. At low vanadium loadings, only TiO2 anatase was detected, and V2O5
    scherbinaite was also detected at high vanadium loadings. The texture of the samples
    depended on the V loading, but all the samples appeared built of primary nanoparticles
    (≈10–20 nm in size) that aggregate to form mesoporous micron-sized spheres. The
    lithium insertion properties of these materials were evaluated by galvanostatic
    measurements taken using coin-type cells, in view of their application as electrode
    for rechargeable Li-ion batteries. The mesoporous TiO2 microspheres showed good
    performances, with a specific reversible capacity of 145 and 128 mAh g−1 at C/2
    and C, respectively (C = 335.6 mA g−1), good coulombic efficiency, and a moderate
    capacity fade (6 %) from the 2nd to the 20th cycle at C/20. Although the addition
    of V effectively increased the electronic conductivity of the powders, the specific
    reversible capacity and cycling performances of the TiO2–V2O5 samples were only
    minimally improved for a 5 at% V loading and were lower at higher V loading.@eng
