description Transition metal oxides have a high initial charge-discharge capacity of 800–1000 mAh/g, the electrochemical performance, cyclic performance and rate performance of the composite of transition metal oxide and graphene have been improved due to the unique two-dimensional structure and excellent electrical conductivity of graphene. In this paper, iron oxides materials with different morphs were prepared by different hydrothermal reaction temperatures, and rGO/Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>-175 °C composites with different graphene ratios were synthesized and used in the anode of lithium ion batteries. The results show that nanorod-shaped Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> had better electrochemical performance than spherical Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>. 0.2rGO/Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>-175 °C had the best cyclic performance, the first cyclic discharge capacity reaches 1372 mAh/g under the current density of 100 mA/g, and the cyclic reversible capacity remained at about 435 mAh/g after 50 cycles, illustrating that nanorods Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> and graphene composites can greatly buffer the volume expansion of Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>.
