title: Exploration of K2Ti8O17as an anode material for potassium-ion batteries.
abstract: Novel K2Ti8O17is successfully fabricated via a facile hydrothermal method combined with a subsequent annealing treatment and further evaluated as an anode material for potassium-ion batteries for the first time. This study may provide a broader vision into developing anode materials for potassium-ion batteries.
