Controlling Surface Phase Transition and Chemical Reactivity of O3-Layered Metal Oxide Cathodes for High-Performance Na-Ion Batteries
Abstract
O3-layered metal oxides are promising cathode materials for high-energy Na-ion batteries (SIBs); however, they suffer from fast capacity fade. In this work, we develop a high-performance O3-NaNi0.68Mn0.22Co0.10O2 cathode for SIBs toward practical applications by suppressing the formation of a rock salt layer at the cathode surface with an advanced electrolyte. The cathode can deliver a high specific capacity of ~196 mAh g–1 and demonstrates >80% capacity retention over 1000 cycles. NaNi0.68Mn0.22Co0.10O2–hard carbon full-cells with practical loading (>2.5 mAh cm–2) and lean electrolyte (~40 μL) demonstrate ~82% capacity retention after 450 cycles. A 60 mAh single-layer pouch cell has also been fabricated and demonstrated stable performance. This work represents a significant leap in SIB development and brings new insights to the development of advanced layered metal oxide cathodes for alkaline-ion batteries.
