A new solid鈥搇iquid鈥揼as鈥搒olid (SLGS) growth strategy has been exploited to prepare porous SnS nanorods directly on carbon hybrid nanostructure by using a sulfur-containing resin (s-resin) laden with crystalline SnO
2 nanoparticles and subsequent calcination promoted the development of porous SnS nanorods growing on carbon. As an anode material in Li-ion batteries (LIBs), SnS nanorods/C hybrid materials show highly stable and high capacity retention rate, which suggest that the novel hybrid materials have alluring prospect for electrochemical energy storage applications.
