ABSTRACT = {Self-assembled highly hierarchical novel SnS<sub>2</sub> microflowers having acute edge nanopetals have 
been fabricated using a facile template-free hydrothermal growth technique utilizing Tin (II) chloride dihydrate 
(SnCl<sub>2</sub>·2H<sub>2</sub>O) and Sodium sulfide nonahydrate (Na<sub>2</sub>S·9H<sub>2</sub>O) as reaction reagents. Morphological analysis exhibits
the flower-type SnS<sub>2</sub> microarchitectures ranging from 4 to 7 μm. The vibrational mode measured at A<sub>1g</sub> = 
314 cm<sup>−1</sup> confirms the existence of hexagonal phase SnS<sub>2</sub> using Raman spectroscopy. The electrochemical results
suggest the promise of as-synthesized SnS<sub>2</sub> structures as a cathodic material in lithium-sulfur batteries.},
