Abstract
Globally, a number of electronic devices have been developed to streamline the day-to-day life, but there is still a challenge for high energy storage and excellent stability. This chapter discusses the advantages and some faced challenges for the hydrothermal synthesis of metal oxide composites for high energy applications. Hydrothermal synthesis method is one of the commonest and relatively achievable method for researchers. The chapter highlights some of the parameters used for the synthesis of metal oxide nanoparticles in both a batch and a flow reaction system for cathode materials. The hydrothermal method is used in heteroatomic doping for improvement of the material properties. The chapter looks at the effect of solvent selection and performance properties at different operation conditions. The chapter includes a practical experiment and results in a discussion for the NaFe2O3-GO which was produced by batch hydrothermal method by the authors. The material was characterized by FESEM/EDX, XRD, and electrochemical testing of the material which resulted in the performance of the discharge capacity approximated to be 720 mA h/g.
