Transition metal oxides have recently re- ceived a great deal of attention as very promising anode materials due to their high theoretical capacity, good safety, eco-benignity, and huge abundance. The present work re- views the latest advances in developing novel transition metal oxides, including FeeO3, Fe3O4, CO3O4, CoO, NiO, MnO, Mn203, Mn3O4, MnO2, MOO3, Cr2O3, Nb2O5, and some binary oxides such as NiCO2O4, ZnCO2O4, MnCO2O4 and CoMn2O4. Nanostructuring and hybrid strategies ap- plicable to transition metal oxides are summarized and analyzed. Furthermore, the impacts of binder choice and heat treatment on electrochemical performance are discussed.展开更多
