AB  - Tin oxide (SnO(2)) and tin-based composites along with carbon have attracted 
      significant interest as negative electrodes for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). 
      However, tin-based composite electrodes have some critical drawbacks, such as 
      high volume expansion, low capacity at high current density due to low ionic 
      conductivity, and poor cycle stability. Moreover, complex preparation methods and 
      high-cost carbon coating procedures are considered main challenges in the 
      commercialization of tin-based electrodes for LIBs. In this study, we prepared a 
      Sn/SnO(2)/C nano-composite structure by employing a low-cost hydrothermal method, 
      where Sn nanoparticles were oxidized in glucose and carboxymethyl cellulose CMC 
      was introduced into the solution. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and 
      transmission electron microscope revealed the irregular structure of Sn 
      nanoparticles and SnO(2) phases in the conductive carbon matrix. The as-prepared 
      Sn/SnO(2)/C nano-composite showed high first-cycle reversible discharge capacity 
      (2248 mAhg(-1)) at 100 mAg(-1) with a first coulombic efficiency of 70%, and also 
      displayed 474.64 mAhg(-1) at the relatively high current density of about 500 
      mAg(-1) after 100 cycles. A low-cost Sn/SnO(2)/C nano-composite with significant 
      electrochemical performance could be the next generation of high-performance 
      negative electrodes for LIBs.
