SnS2 material is considered as a promising anode material for Na-ion batteries (NIBs) because of its unique layered structure and high theoretical capacity. However, SnS2 nanosheets are easily overlapped during synthesis and cycling process. Also, they have to experience large volume change during repeated sodiation-desodiation processes. A promising concept is the application of hierarchical hollow structures for improving electrode stability upon cycling. However, they usually rely on template methods that require complex procedures such as chemical etching or calcination to remove inner template. Here, we demonstrate a simple and innovative strategy for fabricating the SnS2 nanosheets assembled hierarchical tubular structures (SnS2 NS subset of HTSs) by using cobalt-nitrilotriacetic acid chelate nanowires as soluble template, which makes shell growth and core template dissolution occur simultaneously in one step reaction. Owing to the hollow interior and well separated nanosheets with maximally exposed edges, the SnS2 NS subset of HTSs exhibit excellent electro-chemical performance. When evaluated as the anode material for NIBs, it delivers a high discharge capacity of 708 mAh g(-1) at 50 mA g(-1) and still remains up to 414 mAh g(-1) after 50 cycles.
