Abstract
Sodium metal batteries (SMBs) have received increasing attention due to the abundant sodium resources and high energy density, but suffered from the sluggish interfacial kinetic and unstable plating/stripping of sodium anode at low temperature, especially when matched with ester electrolytes. Here, we develop a stable ultra-low-temperature SMBs with high-capacity retention at -50 °C in a weak solvated carbonate ester-based electrolyte, combined with an electrodeposited Na (Cu/Na) anode. The Cu/Na anode with electrochemically activated "deposited sodium" and stable inorganic-rich solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) is favor for the fast Na+ migration, therefore accelerating the interfacial kinetic process. As a result, the Cu/Na||NaCrO2 battery exhibited the highest capacity retention (compared to room-temperature capacity) in carbonate ester-based SMBs (98.05 % at -25 °C, 91.3 % at -40 °C, 87.9 % at -50 °C, respectively). The cyclic stability of 350 cycles at -25 °C with a high energy efficiency of 96.15 % and 70 cycles at -50 °C can be achieved. Even in chill atmospheric environment with the fluctuant temperature, the battery can still operate over one month. This work provides a new opportunity for the development of low-temperature carbonate ester-based SMBs.

Abstract
Sodium ion batteries (SIBs) are promising postlithium battery technologies with high safety and low cost. However, their development is hampered by complicated electrode material preparation and unsatisfactory sodium storage performance. Here, a bismuth/N-doped carbon nanosheets (Bi/N-CNSs) composite featuring a quasi-array structure (alternated porous Bi layers and N-CNSs) with hierarchical Bi distribution (large particles of ∼35 nm in Bi layers and ultrafine Bi of ∼8 nm on N-CNSs) is prepared. Bi/N-CNSs delivers an ultralong-lifespan of 26000 cycles at 5 A g-1 and prominent rate capability of 91.5% capacity retention at 100 A g-1. Even at -40 °C, it exhibits a high rate capability of 161 mAh g-1 at 5 A g-1. Notably, the involved preparation method is characterized by a high yield of 14.53 g in a single laboratory batch, which can be further scaled up, and such a method can also be extended to synthesize other metallic-based materials.

Abstract
Realizing high performances of sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) working at low temperatures is a pressing need for the commercial applications of SIBs. In this work, nanodiamonds (NDs) are introduced in diglyme electrolytes (ND-Diglyme) to significantly improve the low-temperature performances of SIBs. The corresponding SIB achieves an initial reversible specific capacity of 324 mA h g-1 at -40 °C (slightly decreased from 357 mA h g-1 at 25 °C) and shows a capacity retention ratio of ≈82% after 100 cycles at 0.1 A g-1. Moreover, it shows a capacity as high as 40 mA h g-1 at 1 A g-1, nearly five times the date of the pure Diglyme electrolyte. Experimentally reveals that introducing NDs is helpful in inhibiting dendrite growth and improving the cyclic stability of anode at LT, because the ND with strong adsorption to sodium ions can not only assist in forming an effective solid electrolyte interface rich with NaF and Na2CO3 but also effectively reduce the activation energy (decreased from 426.68 to 370.51 meV) during the charge transfer processes. Hence, the proposed ND-assisted weakly ether electrolyte in this study presents a viable electrolyte additive solution to fulfill the rising low-temperature demands of SIBs.

Abstract
Alloying-type anodes show capacity and density advantages for sodium/potassium-ion batteries (SIBs/PIBs), but they encounter serious structural degradation upon cycling, which cannot be resolved through conventional nanostructuring techniques. Herein, we present an in-depth study to reveal the intrinsic reason for the pulverization of bismuth (Bi) materials upon (de)alloying, and report a novel particle-in-bulk architecture with Bi nanospheres inlaid in the bulk carbon (BiNC) to achieve durable Na/K storage. We simulate the volume-expansion-resistant mechanism of Bi during the (de)alloying reaction, and unveil that the irreversible phase transition upon (de)alloying underlies the fundamental origin for the structural degradation of Bi anode, while a proper compressive stress (~10 %) raised by the bulk carbon can trigger a "domino-like" Bi crystal recovering. Consequently, the as obtained BiNC exhibits a record high volumetric capacity (823.1 mAh cm-3 for SIBs, 848.1 mAh cm-3 for PIBs) and initial coulombic efficiency (95.3 % for SIBs, 96.4 % for PIBs), and unprecedented cycling stability (15000 cycles for SIBs with only 0.0015 % degradation per cycle), outperforming the state-of-the-art literature. This work provides new insights on the undesirable structural evolution, and proposes basic guidelines for design of the anti-degradation structure for alloy-type electrode materials.

Abstract
Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) as one of the promising alternatives to lithium-ion batteries have achieved remarkable progress in the past. However, the all-climate performance is still very challenging for SIBs. Herein, 15-Crown-5 (15-C-5) is screened as an electrolyte additive from a number of ether molecules theoretically. The good sodiophilicity, high molecule rigidity, and bulky size enable it to reshape the solvation sheath and promote the anion engagement in the solvated structures by molecule crowding. This change also enhances Na-ion transfer, inhibits side reactions, and leads to a thin and robust solid-electrolyte interphase. Furthermore, the electrochemical stability and operating temperature windows of the electrolyte are extended. These profits improve the electrochemical performance of SIBs in all climates, much better than the case without 15-C-5. This improvement is also adopted to μ-Sn, μ-Bi, hard carbon, and MoS2. This work opens a door to prioritize the potential molecules in theory for advanced electrolytes.

Abstract
Low-temperature operation of sodium metal batteries (SMBs) at the high rate faces challenges of unstable solid electrolyte interphase (SEI), Na dendrite growth, and sluggish Na+ transfer kinetics, causing a largely capacity curtailment. Herein, low-temperature and fast-charge SMBs are successfully constructed by synergetic design of the electrolyte and electrode. The optimized weak-solvation dual-salt electrolyte enables high Na plating/stripping reversibility and the formation of NaF-rich SEI layer to stabilize sodium metal. Moreover, an integrated copper sulfide electrode is in situ fabricated by directly chemical sulfuration of copper current collector with micro-sized sulfur particles, which significantly improves the electronic conductivity and Na+ diffusion, knocking down the kinetic barriers. Consequently, this SMB achieves the reversible capacity of 202.8 mAh g-1 at -20 °C and 1 C (1 C = 558 mA g-1). Even at -40 °C, a high capacity of 230.0 mAh g-1 can still be delivered at 0.2 C. This study is encouraging for further exploration of cryogenic alkali metal batteries, and enriches the electrode material for low-temperature energy storage.

Abstract
The development of advanced layered Ni-rich cathodes is essential for high-energy lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, the prevalent Ni-rich cathodes are still plagued by inherent issues of chemomechanical and thermal instabilities and limited cycle life. For this, here, we introduce an efficient approach combining single-crystalline (SC) design with in situ high-entropy (HE) doping to engineer an ultrahigh-Ni cobalt-free layered cathode of LiNi0.88Mn0.03Mg0.02Fe0.02Ti0.02Mo0.02Nb0.01O2 (denoted as HE-SC-N88). Thanks to the SC- and HE-doping merits, HE-SC-N88 is featured with a grain-boundary-free and stabilized structure with minimal lattice strain, preventing mechanical degradation, reducing surface parasitic reactions, and mitigating oxygen loss. Accordingly, our HE-SC-N88 cathode demonstrates exceptional electrochemical properties particularly with prolonged cycling stability under strenuous conditions in both half and full cells, and the delayed O loss-induced phase transitions upon heating. More meaningfully, our design of HE doping in redefining the ultrahigh-Ni Co-free SC cathodes will make a tremendous progress toward industrial application of next-generation LIBs.

Abstract
In spite of the competitive performance at room temperature, the development of sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) is still hindered by sluggish electrochemical reaction kinetics and unstable electrode/electrolyte interphase under subzero environments. Herein, a low-concentration electrolyte, consisting of 0.5M NaPF6 dissolving in diethylene glycol dimethyl ether solvent, is proposed for SIBs working at low temperature. Such an electrolyte generates a thin, amorphous, and homogeneous cathode/electrolyte interphase at low temperature. The interphase is monolithic and rich in organic components, reducing the limitation of Na+ migration through inorganic crystals, thereby facilitating the interfacial Na+ dynamics at low temperature. Furthermore, it effectively blocks the unfavorable side reactions between active materials and electrolytes, improving the structural stability. Consequently, Na0.7Li0.03Mg0.03Ni0.27Mn0.6Ti0.07O2//Na and hard carbon//Na cells deliver a high capacity retention of 90.8 % after 900 cycles at 1C, a capacity over 310 mAh g-1 under -30 °C, respectively, showing long-term cycling stability and great rate capability at low temperature.

Abstract
The shortage of resources such as lithium and cobalt has promoted the development of novel battery systems with low cost, abundance, high performance, and efficient environmental adaptability. Due to the abundance and low cost of sodium, sodium-ion battery chemistry has drawn worldwide attention in energy storage systems. It is widely considered that wide-temperature tolerance sodium-ion batteries (WT-SIBs) can be rapidly developed due to their unique electrochemical and chemical properties. However, WT-SIBs, especially for their electrode materials and electrolyte systems, still face various challenges in harsh-temperature conditions. In this review, we focus on the achievements, failure mechanisms, fundamental chemistry, and scientific challenges of WT-SIBs. The insights of their design principles, current research, and safety issues are presented. Moreover, the possible future research directions on the battery materials for WT-SIBs are deeply discussed. Progress toward a comprehensive understanding of the emerging chemistry for WT-SIBs comprehensively discussed in this review will accelerate the practical applications of wide-temperature tolerance rechargeable batteries.

[PMID: 38181436 DOI: 10.1002/adma.202311256] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2023] [Revised: 12/15/2023] [Indexed: 01/07/2024]
Abstract
Due to low cost and high energy density, sodium metal batteries (SMBs) have attracted growing interest, with great potential to power future electric vehicles (EVs) and mobile electronics, which require rapid charge/discharge capability. However, the development of high-rate SMBs has been impeded by the sluggish Na+ ion kinetics, particularly at the sodium metal anode (SMA). The high-rate operation severely threatens the SMA stability, due to the unstable solid-electrolyte interface (SEI), the Na dendrite growth, and large volume changes during Na plating-stripping cycles, leading to rapid electrochemical performance degradations. This review surveys key challenges faced by high-rate SMAs, and highlights representative stabilization strategies, including the general modification of SMB components (including the host, Na metal surface, electrolyte, separator, and cathode), and emerging solutions with the development of solid-state SMBs and liquid metal anodes; the working principle, performance, and application of these strategies are elaborated, to reduce the Na nucleation energy barriers and promote Na+ ion transfer kinetics for stable high-rate Na metal anodes. This review will inspire further efforts to stabilize SMAs and other metal (e.g., Li, K, Mg, Zn) anodes, promoting high-rate applications of high-energy metal batteries towards a more sustainable society.

Abstract
Hard carbon (HC) as a potential candidate anode for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) suffers from unstable solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) and low initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE), which limits its commercial applications and urgently requires the emergence of a new strategy. Herein, an organic molecule with two sodium ions, disodium phthalate (DP), was successfully engineered on the HC surface (DP-HC) to replenish the sodium loss from solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) formation. A stabilized and ultrathin (≈7.4 nm) SEI was constructed on the DP-HC surface, which proved to be simultaneously suitable in both ester and ether electrolytes. Compared to pure HC (60.8 %), the as-designed DP-HC exhibited a high ICE of >96.3 % in NaPF6 in diglyme (G2) electrolyte, and is capable of servicing consistently for >1600 cycles at 0.5 A g-1 . The Na3 V2 (PO4 )3 (NVP)|DP-HC full-cell with a 98.3 % exceptional ICE can be cycled stably for 450 cycles, demonstrating the tremendous practical application potential of DP-HC. This work provides a molecular design strategy to improve the ICE of HC, which will inspire more researchers to concentrate on the commercialization progress of HC.

Abstract
Due to flexible structure tunability and abundant structure diversity, redox-active polymers are promising cathode materials for developing affordable and sustainable Na-ion batteries (NIBs). However, polymer cathodes still suffer from low capacity, poor cycle life, and sluggish reaction kinetics. Herein, we designed and synthesized a polymer cathode material bearing carbonyl and azo groups as well as extended conjugation structures in the repeating units. The polymer cathode exhibited exceptional electrochemical performance in NIBs in terms of high capacity, long lifetime, and fast kinetics. When coupled with a low-concentration electrolyte, it shows superior performance at low temperatures down to -50 °C, demonstrating great promise for low-temperature battery applications. Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were employed to study the reaction mechanism, interphase structure, and morphological evolution, confirming reversible redox reactions between azo/carbonyl groups in the polymer and Na+/electrons, a NaF-rich interphase, and high structure stability upon cycling. This work provides an effective approach to developing high-performance polymer cathodes for affordable, sustainable, and low-temperature NIBs.

Abstract
Fe3 O4 is widely investigated as an anode for ambient sodium-ion batteries (SIBs), but its electrochemical properties in the wide operation-temperature range have rarely been studied. Herein, the Fe3 O4 nanoparticles, which are well encapsulated by carbon nanolayers, are uniformly dispersed on the graphene basal plane (named Fe3 O4 /C@G) to be used as the anode for SIBs. The existence of graphene can reduce the size of Fe3 O4 /C nanoparticles from 150 to 80 nm and greatly boost charge transport capability of electrode, resulting in an obvious size decrease of superparamagnetic Fe nanoparticles generated from the conversion reaction from 5 to 2 nm. Importantly, the ultra-small superparamagnetic Fe nanoparticles (≈2 nm) can induce a strong spin-polarized surface capacitance effect at operating temperatures ranging from -40 to 60 °C, thus achieving highly efficient Na-ion transport and storage in a wide operation-temperature range. Consequently, the Fe3 O4 /C@G anode shows high capacity, excellent fast-charging capability, and cycling stability ranging from -40 to 60 °C in half/full cells. This work demonstrates the viability of Fe3 O4 as anode for wide operation-temperature SIBs and reveals that spin-polarized surface capacitance effects can promote Na-ion storage over a wide operation temperature range.

ACS OMEGA 2023; 8:43632-43643.

Abstract
Microstructure modification in sodium alginate (NaAlg)-based solid polymer electrolytes by the perchlorate (ClO4-) and acetate (CH3COO-) anions of sodium salts has been reported. ClO4- participates in the structure-breaking effect via inter/intramolecular hydrogen bond breaking, while CH3COO- changes the amorphous phase, as evident from X-ray diffraction studies. The larger size and negative charge delocalization of ClO4- have a plasticizing effect, resulting in a lower glass transition temperature (Tg) compared to CH3COO-. Decomposition temperature is strongly dependent on the type of anion. Scanning electron microscopy images showed divergent modifications in the surface morphology in both electrolyte systems, with variations in salt content. The mechanical properties of the NaAlg-NaClO4 electrolyte systems are better than those of the NaAlg-CH3 COONa system, indicating weak interactions in the latter. Although most of the studies focus on the cation influence on conductivity, the interaction of the anion and its size certainly have an influence on the properties of solid polymer electrolytes, which will be of interest in the near future for sodium ion-based electrolytes in energy storage devices.

Abstract
A dual-mechanism energy storage strategy is proposed, involving the electrochemical process of sodium ion battery (SIB) and sodium metal battery (SMB). This strategy is expected to achieve a higher capacity than SIB, and obtain dendrite-free growth of SMB with a well-designed anode. Here, self-constructed bismuth with "sodiophilic" framework and rapid ion transmission characteristics is employed as the sodium host (anode) integrating alloy/de-alloy and plating/stripping process that suppresses the dendrite growth and overcomes the limited capacity of traditional anode. Benefited from this, the capacity (capacity contributed by alloy and plating of sodium in total) of 2000 mAh g-1 can be reached, which can retain up to 800 h at 1 A g-1 . Also, the capacity of 3100 mAh g-1 can be achieved that is ≈7.7 times than that of alloyed-bismuth (Bi). This work proposes a dual-mechanism strategy to tackle the dilemma of high-performance sodium (Na) storage devices, which opens a new avenue for the development of next-generation energy storage device.

Abstract
Sodium-ion batteries stand a chance of enabling fast charging ability and long lifespan while operating at low temperature (low-T). However, sluggish kinetics and aggravated dendrites present two major challenges for anodes to achieve the goal at low-T. Herein, we propose an interlayer confined strategy for tailoring nitrogen terminals on Ti3C2 MXene (Ti3C2-Nfunct) to address these issues. The introduction of nitrogen terminals endows Ti3C2-Nfunct with large interlayer space and charge redistribution, improved conductivity and sufficient adsorption sites for Na+, which improves the possibility of Ti3C2 for accommodating more Na atoms, further enhancing the Na+ storage capability of Ti3C2. As revealed, Ti3C2-Nfunct not only possesses a lower Na-ion diffusion energy barrier and charge transfer activation energy, but also exhibits Na+-solvent co-intercalation behavior to circumvent a high de-solvation energy barrier at low-T. Besides, the solid electrolyte interface dominated by inorganic compounds is more beneficial for the Na+ transfer at the electrode/electrolyte interface. Compared with of the unmodified sample, Ti3C2-Nfunct exhibits a twofold capacity (201 mAh g-1), fast-charging ability (18 min at 80% capacity retention), and great superiority in cycle life (80.9%@5000 cycles) at - 25 °C. When coupling with Na3V2(PO4)2F3 cathode, the Ti3C2-Nfunct//NVPF exhibits high energy density and cycle stability at - 25 °C.

Abstract
Sodium-ion batteries capable of operating at rate and temperature extremes are highly desirable, but elusive due to the dynamics and thermodynamics limitations. Herein, a strategy of electrode-electrolyte interfacial chemistry modulation is proposed. The commercial hard carbon demonstrates superior rate performance with 212 mAh g-1 at an ultra-high current density of 5 A g-1 in the electrolyte with weak ion solvation/desolvation, which is much higher than those in common electrolytes (nearly no capacity in carbonate-based electrolytes). Even at -20 °C, a high capacity of 175 mAh g-1 (74 % of its room-temperature capacity) can be maintained at 2 A g-1 . Such an electrode retains 90 % of its initial capacity after 1000 cycles. As proven, weak ion solvation/desolvation of tetrahydrofuran greatly facilitates fast-ion diffusion at the SEI/electrolyte interface and homogeneous SEI with well-distributed NaF and organic components ensures fast Na+ diffusion through the SEI layer and a stable interface.
