A stirring hydrothermal process that enables the formation of elongated bending TiO2–based nanotubes is presented. By making use of its bending nature, the elongated TiO2(B) nanotubular cross-linked network anode electrode can cycle over 10000 times in half cells while retaining a relatively high ca...
