In this paper, we report an interesting approach for efficient synthesis of uniform sub-micrometer carbon supported Fe 3 O 4 hollow spheres. Fe 3 O 4 precursor was first coated on the surface of sulfonated polystyrene hollow microspheres. Then, the precursor and sulfonated polystyrene hollow microspheres were converted into Fe 3 O 4 and carbon hollow spheres when heated at 550°C in N 2 atmosphere. The obtained Fe 3 O 4 @ carbon hollow microspheres exhibit enhanced lithium storage properties compared with Fe 2 O 3 hollow spheres as anode materials, delivering a reversible capacity of 612 mA hg−1 after 50 cycles at a high current density of 400 mA g−1.
