Electrode Materials for High-Performance Sodium-Ion Batteries.

ABSTRACT: Sodium ion batteries (SIBs) are being billed as an economical and environmental alternative to lithium ion batteries (LIBs), especially for medium and large-scale stationery and grid storage. However, SIBs suffer from lower capacities, energy density and cycle life performance. Therefore, in order to be more efficient and feasible, novel high-performance electrodes for SIBs need to be developed and researched. This review aims to provide an exhaustive discussion about the state-of-the-art in novel high-performance anodes and cathodes being currently analyzed, and the variety of advantages they demonstrate in various critically important parameters, such as electronic conductivity, structural stability, cycle life, and reversibility.

Low-Cost and High-Performance Hard Carbon Anode Materials for Sodium-Ion Batteries.

Project description:As an anode material for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs), hard carbon (HC) presents high specific capacity and favorable cycling performance. However, high cost and low initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE) of HC seriously limit its future commercialization for SIBs. A typical biowaste, mangosteen shell was selected as a precursor to prepare low-cost and high-performance HC via a facile one-step carbonization method, and the influence of different heat treatments on the morphologies, microstructures, and electrochemical performances was investigated systematically. The microstructure evolution studied using X-ray diffraction, Raman, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, along with electrochemical measurements, reveals the optimal carbonization condition of the mangosteen shell: HC carbonized at 1500 °C for 2 h delivers the highest reversible capacity of ∼330 mA h g-1 at a current density of 20 mA g-1, a capacity retention of ∼98% after 100 cycles, and an ICE of ∼83%. Additionally, the sodium-ion storage behavior of HC is deeply analyzed using galvanostatic intermittent titration and cyclic voltammetry technologies.

High-Performance Aqueous Zinc-Ion Batteries Realized by MOF Materials.

Project description:Rechargeable aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) have been gaining increasing interest for large-scale energy storage applications due to their high safety, good rate capability, and low cost. However, the further development of ZIBs is impeded by two main challenges: Currently reported cathode materials usually suffer from rapid capacity fading or high toxicity, and meanwhile, unstable zinc stripping/plating on Zn anode seriously shortens the cycling life of ZIBs. In this paper, metal-organic framework (MOF) materials are proposed to simultaneously address these issues and realize high-performance ZIBs with Mn(BTC) MOF cathodes and ZIF-8-coated Zn (ZIF-8@Zn) anodes. Various MOF materials were synthesized, and Mn(BTC) MOF was found to exhibit the best Zn2+-storage ability with a capacity of 112 mAh g-1. Zn2+ storage mechanism of the Mn(BTC) was carefully studied. Besides, ZIF-8@Zn anodes were prepared by coating ZIF-8 MOF material on Zn foils. Unique porous structure of the ZIF-8 coating guided uniform Zn stripping/plating on the surface of Zn anodes. As a result, the ZIF-8@Zn anodes exhibited stable Zn stripping/plating behaviors, with 8 times longer cycle life than bare Zn foils. Based on the above, high-performance aqueous ZIBs were constructed using the Mn(BTC) cathodes and the ZIF-8@Zn anodes, which displayed an excellent long-cycling stability without obvious capacity fading after 900 charge/discharge cycles. This work provides a new opportunity for high-performance energy storage system.

Sodium vanadium titanium phosphate electrode for symmetric sodium-ion batteries with high power and long lifespan.

Project description:Sodium-ion batteries operating at ambient temperature hold great promise for use in grid energy storage owing to their significant cost advantages. However, challenges remain in the development of suitable electrode materials to enable long lifespan and high rate capability. Here we report a sodium super-ionic conductor structured electrode, sodium vanadium titanium phosphate, which delivers a high specific capacity of 147?mA?h?g-1 at a rate of 0.1 C and excellent capacity retentions at high rates. A symmetric sodium-ion full cell demonstrates a superior rate capability with a specific capacity of about 49?mA?h?g-1 at 20 C rate and ultralong lifetime over 10,000 cycles. Furthermore, in situ synchrotron diffraction and X-ray absorption spectroscopy measurement are carried out to unravel the underlying sodium storage mechanism and charge compensation behaviour. Our results suggest the potential application of symmetric batteries for electrochemical energy storage given the superior rate capability and long cycle life.

Nanostructured Silicon-Carbon 3D Electrode Architectures for High-Performance Lithium-Ion Batteries.

Project description:Silicon is an attractive anode material for lithium-ion batteries. However, silicon anodes have the issue of volume change, which causes pulverization and subsequently rapid capacity fade. Herein, we report organic binder and conducting diluent-free silicon-carbon 3D electrodes as anodes for lithium-ion batteries, where we replace the conventional copper (Cu) foil current collector with highly conductive carbon fibers (CFs) of 5-10 μm in diameter. We demonstrate here the petroleum pitch (P-pitch) which adequately coat between the CFs and Si-nanoparticles (NPs) between 700 and 1000 °C under argon atmosphere and forms uniform continuous layer of 6-14 nm thick coating along the exterior surfaces of Si-NPs and 3D CFs. The electrodes fabricate at 1000 °C deliver capacities in excess of 2000 mA h g-1 at C/10 and about 1000 mA h g-1 at 5 C rate for 250 cycles in half-cell configuration. Synergistic effect of carbon coating and 3D CF electrode architecture at 1000 °C improve the efficiency of the Si-C composite during long cycling. Full cells using Si-carbon composite electrode and Li1.2Ni0.15Mn0.55Co0.1O2-based cathode show high open-circuit voltage of >4 V and energy density of >500 W h kg-1. Replacement of organic binder and copper current collector by high-temperature binder P-pitch and CFs further enhances energy density per unit area of the electrode. It is believed that the study will open a new realm of possibility for the development of Li-ion cell having almost double the energy density of currently available Li-ion batteries that is suitable for electric vehicles.

Development of vanadium-based polyanion positive electrode active materials for high-voltage sodium-based batteries.

Project description:Polyanion compounds offer a playground for designing prospective electrode active materials for sodium-ion storage due to their structural diversity and chemical variety. Here, by combining a NaVPO4F composition and KTiOPO4-type framework via a low-temperature (e.g., 190 °C) ion-exchange synthesis approach, we develop a high-capacity and high-voltage positive electrode active material. When tested in a coin cell configuration in combination with a Na metal negative electrode and a NaPF6-based non-aqueous electrolyte solution, this cathode active material enables a discharge capacity of 136 mAh g-1 at 14.3 mA g-1 with an average cell discharge voltage of about 4.0 V. Furthermore, a specific discharge capacity of 123 mAh g-1 at 5.7 A g-1 is also reported for the same cell configuration. Through ex situ and operando structural characterizations, we also demonstrate that the reversible Na-ion storage at the positive electrode occurs mostly via a solid-solution de/insertion mechanism.

N/S-Co-Doped Porous Carbon Sheets Derived from Bagasse as High-Performance Anode Materials for Sodium-Ion Batteries.

Project description:Heteroatom doping is considered to be an efficient strategy to improve the electrochemical performance of carbon-based anode materials for Na-ion batteries (SIBs), due to the introduction of an unbalanced electron atmosphere and increased electrochemical reactive sites of carbon. However, developing green and low-cost approaches to synthesize heteroatom dual-doped carbon with an appropriate porous structure, is still challenging. Here, N/S-co-doped porous carbon sheets, with a main pore size, in the range 1.8-10 nm, has been fabricated through a simple thermal treatment method, using KOH-treated waste bagasse, as a carbon source, and thiourea, as the N and S precursor. The N/S-co-doped carbon sheet electrodes possess significant defects, high specific surface area, enhanced electronic conductivity, improved sodium storage capacity, and long-term cyclability, thereby delivering a high capacity of 223 mA h g-1 at 0.2 A g-1 after 500 cycles and retaining 155 mA h g-1 at 1 A g-1 for 2000 cycles. This work provides a low-cost route to fabricate high-performance dual-doped porous carbonaceous anode materials for SIBs.

Hierarchically ordered mesoporous Co3O4 materials for high performance Li-ion batteries.

Project description:Highly ordered mesoporous Co3O4 materials have been prepared via a nanocasting route with three-dimensional KIT-6 and two-dimensional SBA-15 ordered mesoporous silicas as templates and Co(NO3)2 · 6H2O as precursor. Through changing the hydrothermal treating temperature of the silica template, ordered mesoporous Co3O4 materials with hierarchical structures have been developed. The larger pores around 10 nm provide an efficient transport for Li ions, while the smaller pores between 3-5 nm offer large electrochemically active areas. Electrochemical impedance analysis proves that the hierarchical structure contributes to a lower charge transfer resistance in the mesoporous Co3O4 electrode than the mono-sized structure. High reversible capacities around 1141 mAh g(-1) of the hierarchically mesoporous Co3O4 materials are obtained, implying their potential applications for high performance Li-ion batteries.

Copper sulfide nanoparticles as high-performance cathode materials for Mg-ion batteries.

Project description:Rechargeable magnesium batteries are appealing as safe, low-cost systems with high-energy-density storage that employ predominantly dendrite-free magnesium metal as the anode. While significant progress has been achieved with magnesium electrolytes in recent years, the further development of Mg-ion batteries, however, is inherently limited by the lack of suitable cathode materials, mainly due to the slow diffusion of high-charge-density Mg-ions in the intercalation-type host structures and kinetic limitations of conversion-type cathodes that often causes poor cyclic stability. Nanostructuring the cathode materials offers an effective means of mitigating these challenges, due to the reduced diffusion length and higher surface areas. In this context, we present the highly reversible insertion of Mg-ions into nanostructured conversion-type CuS cathode, delivering high capacities of 300 mAh g-1 at room temperature and high cyclic stability over 200 cycles at a current density of 0.1?A?g-1 with a high coulombic efficiency of 99.9%. These materials clearly outperform bulk CuS, which is electrochemically active only at an elevated temperature of 50?°C. Our results not only point to the important role of nanomaterials in the enhancement of the kinetics of conversion reactions but also suggest that nanostructuring should be used as an integral tool in the exploration of new cathodes for multivalent, i.e., (Mg, Ca, Al)-ion batteries.

Biomass-Derived P/N-Co-Doped Carbon Nanosheets Encapsulate Cu3P Nanoparticles as High-Performance Anode Materials for Sodium-Ion Batteries.

Project description:Biomass-derived approaches have been accepted as a practical way for the design of transitional metal phosphides confined by carbon matrix (TMPs@C) as energy storage materials. Herein, we successfully synthesize P/N-co-doped carbon nanosheets encapsulating Cu3P nanoparticles (Cu3P@P/N-C) by a feasible aqueous reaction followed by a phosphorization procedure using sodium alginate as the biomass carbon source. Cu-alginate hydrogel balls can be squeezed into two-dimensional (2D) nanosheets through a freeze-drying process. Then, Cu3P@P/N-C was obtained after the phosphorization procedure. This rationally designed structure not only improved the kinetics of ion/electron transportation but also buffered the volume expansion of Cu3P nanoparticles during the continuous charge and discharge processes. In addition, the 2D P/N co-doped carbon nanosheets can also serve as a conductive matrix, which can enhance the electronic conductivity of the whole electrode as well as provide rapid channels for electron/ion diffusion. Thus, when applied as anode materials for sodium-ion batteries, it exhibited remarkable cycling stability and rate performance. Prominently, Cu3P@P/N-C demonstrated an outstanding reversible capacity of 209.3 mAh g-1 at 1 A g-1 after 1,000 cycles. Besides, it still maintained a superior specific capacity of 118.2 mAh g-1 after 2,000 cycles, even at a high current density of 5 A g-1.
