Here we construct a novel sodium dual-ion battery (Na-DIB) with a conventional alkyl/alkylene carbonate electrolyte by using reduced-graphene-oxide-coated Na2Ti3O7 (NTO@G) as the anode and coronene, a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), as the cathode. The coronene//NTO@G configuration delivers a specific energy of 77 W h kg-1, based on the total active mass in both electrodes, and excellent cycling stability with 80% capacity retention after 5000 cycles. In addition, this device can work well in a wide range of temperatures from -20 to 40 °C. Furthermore, the results demonstrate a proof-of-concept Na-DIB that avoids the challenges of conventional dual-graphite DIBs by utilizing non-graphite intercalation anode and cathode, and a carbonate-based electrolyte without any additives.
