Spinel Li4Ti5O12 was prepared by hydrothermal method using commercial anatase (TiO2) and lithium hydroxide (LiOH) as raw materials. The effects of LiOH concentration, hydrothermal reaction time and calcination temperature on the structure and electrochemical performance of Li4Ti5O12 were investigated. The formation process of Li4Ti5O12 was also proposed. The microstructure and morphology were characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM techniques, and the electrochemical performance was analyzed by galvanostatic charge-discharge test. The results show that the pure phase spinel Li4Ti5O12 can be obtained when the LiOH concentration is 0.2 mol .L^-1, the hydrothermal time is 12 h, and the calcination temperature is 700 ℃. The LiaTi5O12 annealed at 700 ℃ has excellent electrochemical performance. The discharge specific capacity reached 146.3 mall. g^-1 at the current density of 1 C, and exhibited superior high-rate performance of 101.3 mAh-g^-1 at 40C.
