Recent advances in synthesis, properties, and applications of vanadium oxide nanotube

Abstract Vanadium oxide nanotube is a new type of nanotubular material which opens new horizons for application in many areas. The important catalytic and electrochemical property of vanadium oxide as well as the unique shape of the nanotubes has been the impetus for studying this novel type of nanostructured material. The paper review focuses on recent advances of synthesis vanadium oxide nanotubes. Methods of synthesis vanadium oxide nanotubes (sol-gel, hydrothermal) of nanostructured-based on electrochemical and catalytic processes and metal dichalcogenides, Inorganic nanotubes, and oxide and hydroxide nanotubes and details the synthesis and structural properties of vanadium oxides get are reviewed.
