Mg掺杂提升钠离子电池正极材料高电压循环性能

钠离子电池层状氧化物正极材料具有高容量、易合成等优势,表现出巨大的应用潜力.为了开发出高容量、长循环的正极材料,本文提出对NaNi_0.4Cu_0.1Mn_0.4Ti_0.10₂ (NCMT)用Mg²⁺部分取代Ni²⁺的改性策略,设计并合成了高容量、长循环的NaNi_0.35Mg_0.05Cu_0.1Mn_0.4Ti_0.10₂ (NCMT-Mg)正极材料.该材料在2.4—4.3 V电压范围内,显示165 mAh·g^-1的高可逆比容量.在0.1 C的倍率下循环350周后,仍有111 mAh·g^-1的可逆比容量,容量保持率为67.3%,相较于未掺杂的原始样品提升了约13%.本文对其进行了系统表征并揭示了其高电压循环稳定的机理,为开发出高性能钠离子正极材料提供了重要参考.     

Low-Temperature Aqueous Na-Ion Batteries: Strategies and Challenges of Electrolyte Design

Aqueous Na-ion batteries(ANIBs) are considered to be promising secondary battery systems for grid-scale energy storage applications and have attracted widespread attention due to their unique merits of rich resources of Na, as well as the inherent safety and low cost of aqueous electrolytes. However, the narrow electrochemical stability widow and high freezing point of traditional dilute aqueous electrolytes restrict their multi-scenario applications. Considering the charge-storage mechanism of ...
