Abstract
The conversion-type anode material of iron phosphide (FeP) promises enormous prospects for Na-ion battery technology due to its high theoretical capacity and cost-effectiveness. However, the poor reaction kinetics and large volume expansion of FeP significantly degrade the sodium storage, which remains a daunting challenge. Herein, we demonstrate a binder-free nanotube array architecture constructed by FeP@C hybrid on carbon cloth as advanced anodes to achieve fast and stable sodium storage. The nanotubular structure functions in multiple roles of providing short electron/ion transport distances, smooth electrolyte diffusion channels, and abundant active sites. The carbon layer could not only pave high-speed pathways for electron conductance but also cushion the volume change of FeP. Benefiting from these structural virtues, the FeP@C anode receives a high reversible capacity of 881.7 mAh/g at 0.1 A/g, along with a high initial Coulombic efficiency of 90% and excellent rate capability and cyclability in half and full cells. Moreover, the sodium energy reaction kinetics and mechanism of FeP@C are systematically studied. The present work offers a rational design and construction of high-capacity anode materials for high-energy-density Na-ion batteries.

Biomimetic-Mineralization-Assisted Self-Activation Creates a Delicate Porous Structure in Carbon Material for High-Rate Sodium Storage. ACS APPLIED MATERIALS & INTERFACES 2024.

Abstract
Porous carbons have shown their potential in sodium-ion batteries (SIBs), but the undesirable initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE) and rate capability hinder their practical application. Herein, learning from nature, we report an efficient method for fabricating a carbon framework (CK) with delicate porous structural regulation by biomimetic mineralization-assisted self-activation. The abundant pores and defects of the CK anode can improve the ICE and rate performance of SIBs in ether-based electrolytes, whereas they are confined in carbonate ester-based electrolytes. Notably, ether-based electrolytes enable CK anode to possess excellent ICE (82.9%) and high-rate capability (111.2 mAh g-1 at 50 A g-1). Even after 5500 cycles at a large current density of 10 A g-1, the capacity retention can still be maintained at 73.1%. More importantly, the full cell consisting of the CK anode and Na3V2(PO4)3 cathode delivers a high energy density of 204.4 Wh kg-1, with a power density of 2828.2 W kg-1. Such outstanding performance of the CK anode is attributed to (1) hierarchical pores, oxygen doping, and defects that pave the way for the transportation and storage of Na+, further enhancing ICE; (2) a high-proportion NaF-based solid-electrolyte-interphase (SEI) layer that facilitates Na+ storage kinetics in ether-based electrolytes; and (3) ether-based electrolytes that determine Na+ storage kinetics further to dominate the performance of SIBs. These results provide compelling evidence for the promising potential of our synthetic strategy in the development of carbon-based materials and ether-based electrolytes for electrochemical energy storage.

Abstract
As a pioneering battery technology, even though sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) are safe, non-flammable, and capable of exhibiting better temperature endurance performance than lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), because of lower energy density and larger ionic size, they are not amicable for large-scale applications. Generally, the electrochemical storage performance of a secondary battery can be improved by monitoring the composition and morphology of electrode materials. Because more is the intricacy of a nanostructured composite electrode material, more electrochemical storage applications would be expected. Despite the conventional methods suitable for practical production, the synthesis of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) would offer enormous opportunities for next-generation battery applications by delicately systematizing the structure and composition at the molecular level to store sodium ions with larger sizes compared with lithium ions. Here, the review comprehensively discusses the progress of nanostructured MOFs and their derivatives applied as negative and positive electrode materials for effective sodium storage in SIBs. The commercialization goal has prompted the development of MOFs and their derivatives as electrode materials, before which the synthesis and mechanism for MOF-based SIB electrodes with improved sodium storage performance are systematically discussed. Finally, the existing challenges, possible perspectives, and future opportunities will be anticipated.

Abstract
Electrodes made of composites with heterogeneous structure hold great potential for boosting ionic and charge transfer and accelerating electrochemical reaction kinetics. Herein, hierarchical and porous double-walled NiTeSe-NiSe2 nanotubes are synthesized by a hydrothermal process assisted in situ selenization. Impressively, the nanotubes have abundant pores and multiple active sites, which shorten the ion diffusion length, decrease Na+ diffusion barriers, and increase the capacitance contribution ratio of the material at a high rate. Consequently, the anode shows a satisfactory initial capacity (582.5 mA h g-1 at 0.5 A g-1 ), a high-rate capability, and long cycling stability (1400 cycles, 398.6 mAh g-1 at 10 A g-1 , 90.5% capacity retention). Moreover, the sodiation process of NiTeSe-NiSe2 double-walled nanotubes and underlying mechanism of the enhanced performance are revealed by in situ and ex situ transmission electron microscopy and theoretical calculations.

Abstract
Metal selenides are considered as one of the most promising anode materials for Na-ion batteries owing to high specific capacity and relatively higher electronic conductivity compared with metal sulfides or oxides. However, such anodes still suffer from huge volume change upon repeated Na+ insertion/extraction processes and simultaneously undergo severe shuttle effect of polyselenides, thus leading to poor electrochemical performance. Herein, a facile chemical-blowing and selenization strategy to fabricate 3D interconnected hybrids built from metal selenides (MSe, M = Mn, Co, Cr, Fe, In, Ni, Zn) nanoparticles encapsulated in in situ formed N-doped carbon foams (NCFs) is reported. Such hybrids not only provide ultrasmall active nanobuilding blocks (≈15 nm), but also efficiently anchor them inside the conductive NCFs, thus enabling both high-efficiency utilization of active components and high structural stability. On the other hand, Cu-driven replacement reaction is utilized for efficiently inhibiting the shuttle effect of polyselenides in ether-based electrolyte. Benefiting from the combined merits of the unique MSe@NCFs and the utilization of the conversion of metal selenides to copper selenides, the as-obtained hybrids (MnSe as an example) exhibit superior rate capability (386.6 mAh g-1 up to 8 A g-1 ) and excellent cycling stability (347.7 mAh g-1 at 4.0 A g-1 after 1200 cycles).

Abstract
Hollow carbon materials are regarded as crucial support materials in catalysis and electrochemical energy storage on account of their unique porous structure and electrical properties. Herein, an indium-based organic framework of InOF-1 can be thermally carbonized under inert argon to form indium particles through the redox reaction between nanosized indium oxide and carbon matrix. In particular, a type of porous hollow carbon nanostraw (HCNS) is in situ obtained by combining the fusion and removal of indium within the decarboxylation process. The as-synthesized HCNS, which possesses more charge active sites, short and quick electron, and ion transport pathways, has become an excellent carrier for electrochemically active species such as iodine with its unique internal cavity and interconnected porous structure on the tube wall. Furthermore, the assembled zinc-iodine batteries (ZIBs) provide a high capacity of 234.1 mAh g-1 at 1 A g-1 , which ensures that the adsorption and dissolution of iodine species in the electrolyte reach a rapid equilibrium. The rate and cycle performance of the HCNS-based ZIBs are greatly improved, thereby exhibiting an excellent capacity retention rate. It shows a better electrochemical exchange capacity than typical unidirectional carbon nanotubes, making HCNS an ideal cathode material for a new generation of high-performance batteries.

Abstract
The use of porous hard carbons (PHCs) as electrode materials in sodium-ion batteries has great potential; however, the exposure of large surface areas to electrolyte flow results in irregular and irreversible solid electrolyte interfaces (SEIs), leading to deteriorated ionic and electronic mobility and inferior initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE). These issues can be addressed through suitable structural modifications of PHC materials. Herein, the integration of high-surface-area PHCs with carbon nanofibers (CNFs) was accomplished by a simple electrospinning technique, which resulted in a uniform and reversible SEI layer. In the meantime, the CNFs' mesh provided connectivity and conductivity in the as-integrated electrodes, whereas PHCs offered fast diffusion kinetics and high Na+ ion storage capacity. Additionally, PHC integration with CNFs demonstrated an excellent ICE of 77% and a specific capacity of 505 mAh/g at 25 mA/g. Furthermore, the conjugated microstructure also provided flexibility and stability to the electrode (260 mAh/g after 500 cycles). This remarkable synergy may promote the development of free-standing, flexible, and highly porous properties in a single material for advanced energy storage applications.

Abstract
Porous and hollow carbon materials have great superiority and prospects in electrochemical energy applications, especially for surface charge storage due to the high active surface. Herein, a general strategy is developed to synthesize mesoporous hollow carbon spheres (MHCS) with controllable texture and compositions by the synergistic effect of dopamine polymerization and metal catalysis (Cu, Bi, Zn). Mesoporous MHCS-Cu and MHCS-Bi are regular spheres, while mesoporous MHCS-Zn possesses an inward concave texture, and simultaneously has a very high surface area of 1675.5 m2 g-1 and lower oxygen content through the catalytic deoxygenation effect. MHCS-Zn displays an exceptional sodium storage kinetics and excellent long cycling life with 171.9 mAh g-1 after 2500 cycles at 5 A g-1 in compatible ether-based electrolytes. Such electrolyte enables enhanced solvated Na+ transport kinetics with appropriate electrostatic interactions at the surface of carbon anode as revealed by molecular dynamics simulations and molecular surface electrostatic potential calculations. Such an anode also displays basically constant capacity working at 0 °C, and still delivers 140 mAh g-1 at 3 A g-1 under -20 °C. Moreover, MHCS-Zn anode is coupled with Na3 V2 (PO4 )3 cathode to construct a hybrid capacitor, which exhibits a high energy density of 145 Wh Kg-1 at a very high power of 8009 W kg-1 .
