A Promising Carbon/g‐C3N4 Composite Negative Electrode for a Long‐Life Sodium‐Ion Battery

2D graphitic carbon nitride (g‐C₃N₄) nanosheets are a promising negative electrode candidate for sodium‐ion batteries (NIBs) owing to its easy scalability, low cost, chemical stability, and potentially high rate capability. However, intrinsic g‐C₃N₄ exhibits poor electronic conductivity, low reversible Na‐storage capacity, and insufficient cyclability. DFT calculations suggest that this could be due to a large Na⁺ ion diffusion barrier in the innate g‐C₃N₄ nanosheet. A facile one‐pot heating of a mixture of low‐cost urea and asphalt is strategically applied to yield stacked multilayer C/g‐C₃N₄ composites with improved Na‐storage capacity (about 2 times higher than that of g‐C₃N₄, up to 254 mAh g^?1), rate capability, and cyclability. A C/g‐C₃N₄ sodium‐ion full cell (in which sodium rhodizonate dibasic is used as the positive electrode) demonstrates high Coulombic efficiency (ca. 99.8 %) and a negligible capacity fading over 14 000 cycles at 1 A g^?1.
