The Sn - graphite composites were prepared by chemical encapsulation method for anode materials in Li-ion batteries. EDS and XRD analysis confirmed the presence of Sn in the graphite structure. Cyclic voltammometry (CV) measurement shows extra reduction and oxidation peaks, which might to be related to the formations of alloy compounds. Graphite-tin composite electrodes demonstrated higher Lithium storage capacities than graphite electrodes. Due to the nature of fine Sn particles on graphite surface, the graphite-tin composite electrodes have shown a good cycle properties.
