This work proposes a strategy to construct one-dimensional (1D) porous nanomaterials, aiming to ameliorate the overall electrochemical properties of MLIBs. SnO2 cathodes with nano-fiber (NF-SnO2), nano-single tubular (NST-SnO2) and nano-multi-tubular (NMT-SnO2) structures were prepared by electrospinning technic, and the modification mechanism of SnO2 cathodes was discussed. NST-SnO2 and NMT-SnO2 cathodes show excellent cycle and capacity properties than that of NF-SnO2 cathode. The NST-SnO2 and NMT-SnO2 cathodes show discharge capacities of 138.2 and 286.4 mAh g−1 at 500 mA g−1 in the first cycle, the capacities after 50 cycles are 156.7 (113.38%) and 206.2 mAh g−1 (71.99%), which are higher than that of NF-SnO2 cathode 46.7 mAh g−1 (31.32%). The 69.09 and 118.01 mAh g−1 of NST-SnO2 and NMT-SnO2 are discharged at 2000 mA g−1. The electrochemical mechanism of modified nano-SnO2 cathodes in MLIBs is also elaborated. The porosity nanomaterials provide a guarantee for high-performance MLIBs and pave way for the construction of advanced SnO2 cathodes for MLIBs.
