Title: Na₄MnV(PO₄)₃-rGO as Advanced cathode for aqueous and non-aqueous sodium ion batteries

Abstract

NASICON-type Na₄MnV(PO₄)₃ with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) has been synthesized by the simple sol-gel reaction and characterized by different analytical techniques. The resulted material has been explored as a cathode material for rechargeable non-aqueous and aqueous sodium-ion batteries. In non-aqueous electrolytes, the as-synthesized Na₄MnV(PO₄)₃-rGO composite shows stable discharge capacity of 86 mAh g^-1 at 0.1 C and 68 mAh g^-1 at 0.2 C after 100 cycles in half-cell and full-cell configurations, respectively. In aqueous electrolytes, it delivers an initial discharge capacity of 92 mAh g^-1 at 1 C rate in half-cells and 97 mAh g^-1 at 10 C rate in full-cells having NaTi₂(PO₄)₃-MWCNT as the anode. Stable cycleability and high rate capabilities of Na₄MnV(PO₄)₃-rGO composite can be attributed to the very strong and sustainable conductive percolation networks for both electrons and Na⁺ ions. The obtained results reveal that the aqueous electrolyte cell has a huge scope for gird level energy storage applications.

NASICON-type Na₃Fe₂(PO₄)₃ as a low-cost and high-rate anode material for aqueous sodium-ion batteries

Journal Article Qiu, Shen ; Wu, Xianyong ; Wang, Maoyu ; ... - Nano Energy

Aqueous sodium-ion batteries are attractive battery alternatives for stationary energy storage due to their inherently low cost and high safety. The development of advanced electrode materials with excellent performance and low cost is crucial for the success of aqueous Na-ion batteries. Albeit the high capacity and stable cycling of the leading anode of NaTi₂(PO₄)₃, the high price of titanium element and the low Na-insertion potential close to the hydrogen evolution reaction may plague its application. Here we introduced a NASICON-type Na₃Fe₂(PO₄)₃ as a promising anode alternative for aqueous Na-ion batteries. Synchrotron X-ray diffraction and spectroscopy confirm its phase and atomicmore »« less

A novel high capacity positive electrode material with tunnel-type structure for aqueous sodium-ion batteries

Journal Article Wang, Yuesheng ; Mu, Linqin ; Liu, Jue ; ... - Advanced Energy Materials (Online)

In this study, aqueous sodium-ion batteries have shown desired properties of high safety characteristics and low-cost for large-scale energy storage applications such as smart grid, because of the abundant sodium resources as well as the inherently safer aqueous electrolytes. Among various Na insertion electrode materials, tunnel-type Na_0.44MnO₂ has been widely investigated as a positive electrode for aqueous sodium-ion batteries. However, the low achievable capacity hinders its practical applications. Here we report a novel sodium rich tunnel-type positive material with a nominal composition of Na_0.66[Mn_0.66Ti_0.34]O₂. The tunnel-type structure of Na_0.44MnO₂ obtained for this compound was confirmed by XRD and atomic-scale STEM/EELS.more »« less

A Polymer-Assisted Spinodal Decomposition Strategy toward Interconnected Porous Sodium Super Ionic Conductor-Structured Polyanion-Type Materials and Their Application as a High-Power Sodium-Ion Battery Cathode

Journal Article Xiong, Hailong ; Qian, Ruicheng ; Liu, Zhilin ; ... - Advanced Science

A general polymer-assisted spinodal decomposition strategy is used to prepare hierarchically porous sodium super ionic conductor (NASICON)-structured polyanion-type materials (e.g., Na₃V₂(PO₄)₃, Li₃V₂(PO₄)₃, K₃V₂(PO₄)₃, Na₄MnV(PO₄)₃, and Na₂TiV(PO₄)₃) in a tetrahydrofuran/ethanol/H₂O synthesis system. Depending on the boiling point of solvents, the selective evaporation of the solvents induces both macrophase separation via spinodal decomposition and mesophase separation via self-assembly of inorganic precursors and amphiphilic block copolymers, leading to the formation of hierarchically porous structures. We find that the resulting hierarchically porous Na₃V₂(PO₄)₃ possessing large specific surface area (≈77 m² g^-1) and pore volume (≈0.272 cm³ g^-1) shows a high specific capacity of 117.6 mAhmore »« less
