Abstract
Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) represent a promising energy storage technology with great safety. Because of their high operating potential, superior structural stability, and prominent thermal stability, polyanion-type phosphates have garnered significant interest in superior prospective cathode materials for SIBs. Nevertheless, the disadvantages of poor intrinsic electronic conductivity, sluggish kinetics, and volume variation during sodiation/desodiation remain great challenges for satisfactory rate performance and cycle stability, which severely hinder their further practical applications. In this work, by adjusting the amounts of pretreated multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNT) added intentionally at the beginning of the preparation, biphasic polyanion-type phosphate materials (marked as NFC) are synthesized through a one-pot solid state reaction methodology, which are composed of CNT-interwoven Na3V2(PO4)2F3 (NVPF) and a small amount of Na3V2(PO4)3 (NVP). Benefiting from the improved electronic conductivity and unique composition and structure, the optimized sample (labeled as NFC-2) illustrates exceptional cycle stability and remarkable rate performance. The discharge capacities of the NFC-2 electrode are 114.8 and 78.6 mAh g-1 tested at 20 and 5000 mA g-1, respectively. Notably, such an electrode still gives out 75.7% capacity retention upon 10 000 cycles at 5000 mA g-1. In situ X-ray diffraction analysis demonstrates that the NFC-2 cathode has outstanding structural reversibility during charge/discharge cycles. More importantly, such a biphasic material has achieved impressive electrochemical performance within a wide operating temperature range of -20-50 °C. When temperature is decreased to -20 °C, the NFC-2 electrode still delivers an initial discharge capacity of 102.4 mAh g-1 and exhibits a remarkable capacity retention of 97.8% even after 500 cycles at 50 mA g-1. In addition, the sodium-ion full cell assembled by integrating NFC-2 cathode and hard carbon anode shows a satisfying energy density of 431.3 Wh kg-1 at 20 mA g-1 with a better long-term cycle performance. The synergistic effect among high energy NVPF, conductive CNT, and stable NVP may lead to the great improvement in the electrochemical sodium storage performance of the NFC-2 sample. Such biphasic polyanion-type phosphate materials will inject new ideas into the material design for SIBs with excellent electrochemical performance and further promote practical applications of this advanced energy storage technology.

Abstract
Na3V2(PO4)2F3 (NVPF), recognized for its Na superionic conductor architecture, emerges as a promising candidate among polyanion-type cathodes for sodium ion batteries (SIBs). However, its adoption in practical applications faces obstacles due to its inherently low electronic conductivity. To address this challenge, we employ a binary co-doped strategy to design Na3.3K0.2V1.5Mg0.5(PO4)2F3 cathode with nitrogen-doped carbon (NC) coating layer. This configuration enhances electronic conductivity and reduces diffusion barriers for sodium ion (Na+). The strategy of incorporating nitrogen-doped carbon coating not only facilitates the formation of a porous structure but also introduces additional defects and active sites. Such modifications accelerate the reaction kinetics and augment electrolyte interaction through an expanded specific surface area, thus streamlining the electrochemical process. Concurrently, strategic heteroatom substitution leads to a more efficient engagement of Na+ in the electrochemical activities, thereby bolstering the cathode's structural integrity. The vanadium fluorophosphate Na3.3K0.2V1.5Mg0.5(PO4)2F3@NC exhibits an electrochemical performance, including a high discharge specific capacity of 124.3 mA h g-1 at 0.1C, a long lifespan of 1000 cycles with a capacity retention of 93.1 % at 10C, and a rate property of 73.2 mA h g-1 at 20C. This research provides a method for preparing binary doped NVPF for energy storage electrochemistry.

Abstract
Na3V2(PO4)2F3 is recognized as a promising cathode for high energy density sodium-ion batteries due to its high average potential of ∼3.95 V (vs Na/Na+). A high-voltage-resistant electrolyte is of high importance due to the long duration of 4.2 V (vs Na/Na+) when improving cyclability. Herein, a targeted electrolyte containing additives with two -C≡N groups like succinonitrile has been designed. In this design, one -C≡N group is accessible to the solvation sheath and enables the other -C≡N in dinitrile being exposed and subsequently squeezed into the electric double layer. Then, the squeezed -C≡N group is prone to a preferential adsorption on the electrode surface prior to the exposed -CH2/-CH3 in Na+-solvent and oxidized to construct a stable and electrically insulating interface enriched CN-/NCO-/Na3N. The Na3V2(PO4)2F3-based sodium-ion batteries within a high-voltage of 2-4.3 V (vs Na/Na+) can accordingly achieve an excellent cycling stability (e.g., 95.07% reversible capacity at 1 C for 1,5-dicyanopentane and 98.4% at 2 C and 93.0% reversible capacity at 5 C for succinonitrile after 1000 cycles). This work proposes a new way to design high-voltage electrolytes for high energy density sodium-ion batteries.

Abstract
Emerging energy storage systems have received significant attention along with the development of renewable energy, thereby creating a green energy platform for humans. Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are commonly used, such as in smartphones, tablets, earphones, and electric vehicles. However, lithium has certain limitations including safety, cost-effectiveness, and environmental issues. Sodium is believed to be an ideal replacement for lithium owing to its infinite abundance, safety, low cost, environmental friendliness, and energy storage behavior similar to that of lithium. Inhered in the achievement in the development of LIBs, sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) have rapidly evolved to be commercialized. Among the cathode, anode, and electrolyte, the cathode remains a significant challenge for achieving a stable, high-rate, and high-capacity device. In this review, recent advances in the development and optimization of cathode materials, including inorganic, organometallic, and organic materials, are discussed for SIBs. In addition, the challenges and strategies for enhancing the stability and performance of SIBs are highlighted.

Abstract
Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) stand out among many monovalent/multivalent metal-ion batteries as promising new energy storage devices because of their good safety, low cost, and environmental friendliness. Nevertheless, there are still many great challenges to exploring new-type cathode materials that are suitable for Zn2+ intercalation. Vanadium-based compounds with various structures, large layer spacing, and different oxidation states are considered suitable cathode candidates for AZIBs. Herein, the research advances in vanadium-based compounds in recent years are systematically reviewed. The preparation methods, crystal structures, electrochemical performances, and energy storage mechanisms of vanadium-based compounds (e.g., vanadium phosphates, vanadium oxides, vanadates, vanadium sulfides, and vanadium nitrides) are mainly introduced. Finally, the limitations and development prospects of vanadium-based compounds are pointed out. Vanadium-based compounds as cathode materials for AZIBs are hoped to flourish in the coming years and attract more and more researchers' attention.

Abstract
Na3V2O2(PO4)2F (NVOPF) is gaining attention as a high-energy cathode candidate for sodium-ion batteries owing to its wide operating voltage, high energy density and excellent thermal stability. However, its intrinsic poor electrical conductivity results in its current sodium-storage performance being far below expectations. Herein, two-dimensional Ti3C2Tx MXene nanosheets with excellent electrical conductivity are introduced to construct an interconnected conductive framework to tightly encapsulate NVOPF nanoparticles. The Ti3C2Tx nanosheets ensure superior electronic contacts, along with inhibiting the agglomeration of NVOPF nanoparticles, thus accelerating electron and ion transfer during sodium-ion de/intercalation and maximizing the storage capacity. As a result, the optimized NVOPF/Ti3C2Tx cathode exhibits high rate capabilities (111 mA h g-1 at 0.2 C and 78 mA h g-1 at 20 C), with an impressively high capacity retention of 74.8% over a wide temperature range (from -20 to 20 °C). Additionally, the assembled sodium-ion full cell provides a highly reversible capacity of 116 mA h g-1 at 1 C, with a capacity retention of 67.2% after 100 cycles. These inspiring results provide new insights for improving the charge-transfer kinetics of the NVOPF cathode and this methodology may be extended to other cathode materials.

Abstract
In this study, a nitrogen-boron codoped carbon layer, Na3V2(PO4)2F3 sample, obtained by using an ionic liquid-acrylic acid copolymer as the nitrogen-boron source was used as the cathode material for sodium-ion batteries. The optimized and modified nitrogen and boron codoped carbon layer, Na3V2(PO4)2F3 (denoted as NVPF-PCNB-20), illustrated better rate capability and cycling performance. The discharge capacities of NVPF-PCNB-20 at 0.5C and 10C were 109 and 90 mAh g-1, respectively, and the capacity retention rate was 93.2% after 100 cycles at 0.5C and 92.8% after 750 cycles at 10C. Through in situ X-ray diffraction analysis of NVPF-PCNB-20, the results show that the modified Na3V2(PO4)2F3 has excellent cycle reversibility. The scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy images reveal that NVPF-PCNB-20 particles were finer and covered by a uniform coating. The results show that the ionic liquid-acrylic acid copolymer not only make the material dispersion more uniform but also enhance the electronic conductivity and sodium storage performance of Na3V2(PO4)3F3 effectively. This study may provide an effective way to synthesize nitrogen and boron codoped carbon-coated Na3V2(PO4)2F3 with excellent electrochemical performance.

Abstract
Na3 V2 (PO4 )2 F3 has attracted wide attention due to its high voltage platform, and stable crystal structure. However, its application is limited by the low electronic conductivity and the ease formation of impurity. In this paper, the spherical Br-doped Na3 V2 (PO4 )2 F3 /C is successfully obtained by a one-step spray drying technology. The hard template polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) supplements the loss of fluorine, forming porous structure that accelerates the infiltration of electrolyte. The soft template cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) enables doping of bromine and can also control the fluorine content, meanwhile, the self-assembly effect strengthens the structure and refines the size of spherical particles. The loss, compensation, and regulation mechanism of fluorine are investigated. The Br-doped Na3 V2 (PO4 )2 F3 /C sphere exhibits superior rate capability with the capacities of 116.1, 105.1, and 95.2 mAh g-1 at 1, 10, and 30 C, and excellent cyclic performance with 98.3% capacity retention after 1000 cycles at 10 C. The density functional theory (DFT) calculation shows weakened charge localization and enhanced conductivity, meanwhile the diffusion energy barrier of sodium ions is reduced with Br doping. This paper proposes a strategy to construct fluorine-containing polyanions cathode, which enables the precise regulation of structure and morphology, thus leading to superior electrochemical performance.

Abstract
Na3V2(PO4)2F3 is a typical NASICON structure with a high voltage plateau and capacity. Nevertheless, its applications are limited due to its low conductivity and poor rate performance. In this study, nitrogen-boron co-doped carbon-coated Na3V2(PO4)2F3 (NVPF-CNB) was prepared by a simple sol-gel method using an ionic liquid (1-vinyl-3-methyl imidazole tetrafluoroborate) as a source of nitrogen and boron for the first time. The morphology and electrochemical properties of NVPF-CNB composites were investigated. The results show that a nitrogen-boron co-doped carbon layer could increase the electron and ion diffusion rate, reduce internal resistance, and help alleviate particle agglomeration. NVPF-CNB-30 exhibited better rate performance under 5C and 10C charge/discharge with initial reversible capacities of 99 and 90 mA h g-1, respectively. Furthermore, NVPF-CNB-30 illustrates excellent cyclic performance with the capacity retention rate reaching 91.9% after 500 cycles at 5C, as well as a capacity retention rate of about 95.5% after 730 cycles at 10C. The evolution of the material's structure during charge/discharge processes studied by in situ X-ray diffraction confirms the stable structure of nitrogen-boron co-doped carbon-coated Na3V2(PO4)2F3. Co-doping of nitrogen and boron also provides more active sites on the surface of Na3V2(PO4)2F3, revealing a new strategy for the modification of sodium-ion batteries.

Chen C, Shi F, Zhang S, Su Y, Xu ZL. Ultrastable and High Energy Calcium Rechargeable Batteries Enabled by Calcium Intercalation in a NASICON Cathode. SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2022; 18:e2107853. [PMID: 35388645 DOI: 10.1002/smll.202107853] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Ca-ion batteries (CIBs) have been considered a promising candidate for the next-generation energy storage technology owing to the abundant calcium element and the low reduction potential of Ca2+ /Ca. However, the large size and divalent nature of Ca2+ induce significant volume change and sluggish ion mobility in intercalation cathodes, leading to poor reversibly and low energy/power densities for CIBs. Herein, a polyanionic Na superionic conduction (NASICON)-typed Na-vacant Na1 V2 (PO4 )2 F3 (N1 PVF3 ) with sufficient interstitial spaces is reported as ultra-stable and high-energy Ca ion cathodes. The N1 PVF3 delivers exceptionally high Ca storage capacities of 110 and 65 mAh g-1 at 10 and 500 mA g-1 , respectively, and a record-long cyclability of 2000 cycles. More interestingly, by tailoring the fluorine content in N1 PVFx (1 ≤ x ≤ 3), the high working potential of 3.5 V versus Ca2+ /Ca is achievable. In conjunction with Ca metal anode and a compatible electrolyte, Ca metal batteries with N1 VPF3 cathodes are constructed, which deliver an initial energy density of 342 W h kg-1 , representing one of the highest values thus far reported for CIBs. Origins of the uncommonly stable and high-power capabilities for N1 PVF3 are elucidated as the small volume changes and low cation diffusion barriers among the cathodes.

Abstract
The nano-scale spherical Na3V2(PO4)2F3 with a NASICON structure phase was prepared with a spray drying technique, and the bagasse in Guangxi, China was selected as the carbon source to prepare Na3V2(PO4)2F3/C. The optimal preparation conditions of the composite determined using thermogravimetry, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and electrochemical testing were: a calcination temperature of 650 °C and a 20% carbon source. The Na3V2(PO4)2F3/C has obvious redox peaks, determined by cyclic voltammetry (CV), at 3.90 V and 3.75 V, 4.32 V and 4.15 V. These two pairs of redox peaks correspond to the escape/intercalation of the two pairs of Li+/Na+. Notably, compared with pure Na3V2(PO4)2F3, the specific discharge capacity of Na3V2(PO4)2F3/C-20%, which were used as a cathode material for lithium-sodium hybrid ion batteries, increased from 55 mA h g-1 to 125 mA h g-1, which was an improvement of twofold.

Abstract
Attempts to utilize lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) in large-scale electrochemical energy storage systems have achieved initial success, and solid-state LIBs using metallic lithium as the anode have also been well developed. However, the sharply increased demands/costs and the limited reserves of the two most important metal elements (Li & Co) for LIBs have raised concerns about future development. Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) equipped with advanced cobalt-free cathodes show great potential in solving both "lithium panic" and "cobalt panic", and have made remarkable progress in recent years. In this review, we comprehensively summarize the recent advances of high-performance cobalt-free cathode materials for advanced SIBs, systematically analyze the conflicts of structural/electrochemical stability with intrinsic insufficiencies of cobalt-free cathode materials, and extensively discuss the strategies of constructing stable cobalt-free cathode materials by making full use of non-cobalt transition-metal elements and suitable crystal structures, all of which aim to provide insights into the key factors (e.g., phase transformation, particle cracks, crystal defects, lattice distortion, lattice oxygen oxidation, morphology, transition-metal migration/dissolution, and the synergistic effects of composite structures) that can determine the stability of cobalt-free cathode materials, provide guidelines for future research, and stimulate more interest on constructing high-performance cobalt-free cathode materials.

Abstract
Nitrogen-doped carbon-covered Na3V2(PO4)2F3 (NVPF/C-PDPA) composites have been successfully prepared by self-polymerization of dopamine on the NVPF surface and subsequent sintering. The X-ray diffraction results show that the NVPF/C-PDPA has good crystallinity and introducing dopamine does not affect the lattice structure of NVPF. The high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, high-angle annular dark-field images, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analyses reveal that the NVPF/C-PDPA particles are covered by a complete and uniform covering layer, which is effective at preventing corrosion of NVPF in the electrolyte to greatly increase cycling stability. Furthermore, N-doping into the carbon layer can produce additional active sites to improve the capacity especially the rate capacity. Such a NVPF/C-PDPA electrode delivers a remarkable rate capacity (98.0 mA h g-1 at 10 C) and superior cycle performance (∼95.8% capacity retention at 10 C after 800 cycles). We believe that this work may be beneficial for accelerating the development of high-performance electrode materials and the commercialization of Na-ion batteries.

Abstract
Sodium-ion batteries are widely regarded as a promising supplement for lithium-ion battery technology. However, it still suffers from some challenges, including low energy/power density and unsatisfactory cycling stability. Here, a cross-linked graphene-caged Na3V2(PO4)2F3 microcubes (NVPF@rGO) composite via a one-pot hydrothermal strategy followed by freeze drying and heat treatment is reported. As a cathode for a sodium-ion half-cell, the NVPF@rGO delivers excellent cycling stability and rate capability, as well as good low temperature adaptability. The structural evolution during the repeated Na+ extraction/insertion and Na ions diffusion kinetics in the NVPF@rGO electrode are investigated. Importantly, a practicable sodium-ion full-cell is constructed using a NVPF@rGO cathode and a N-doped carbon anode, which delivers outstanding cycling stability (95.1% capacity retention over 400 cycles at 10 C), as well as an exceptionally high energy density (291 Wh kg-1 at power density of 192 W kg-1). Such micro-/nanoscale design and engineering strategies, as well as deeper understanding of the ion diffusion kinetics, may also be used to explore other micro-/nanostructure materials to boost the performance of energy storage devices.

Abstract
Sodium-ion batteries (SIB) are regarded as the most promising competitors to lithium-ion batteries in spite of expected electrochemical disadvantages. Here a "cross-linking" strategy is proposed to mitigate the typical SIB problems. We present a SIB full battery that exhibits a working potential of 3.3 V and an energy density of 180 Wh kg-1 with good cycle life. The anode is composed of cross-linking hollow carbon sheet encapsulated CuP2 nanoparticles (CHCS-CuP2) and a cathode of carbon coated Na3V2(PO4)2F3 (C-NVPF). For the preparation of the CHCS-CuP2 nanocomposites, we develop an in situ phosphorization approach, which is superior to mechanical mixing. Such CHCS-CuP2 nanocomposites deliver a high reversible capacity of 451 mAh g-1 at 80 mA g-1, showing an excellent capacity retention ratio of 91% in 200 cycles together with good rate capability and stable cycling performance. Post mortem analysis reveals that the cross-linking hollow carbon sheet structure as well as the initially formed SEI layers are well preserved. Moreover, the inner electrochemical resistances do not significantly change. We believe that the presented battery system provides significant progress regarding practical application of SIB.

Abstract
Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) have attracted increasing attention in the past decades, because of high overall abundance of precursors, their even geographical distribution, and low cost. Apart from inherent thermodynamic disadvantages, SIBs have to overcome multiple kinetic problems, such as fast capacity decay, low rate capacities and low Coulombic efficiencies. A special case is sodium super ion conductor (NASICON)-based electrode materials as they exhibit - besides pronounced structural stability - exceptionally high ion conductivity, rendering them most promising for sodium storage. Owing to the limiting, comparatively low electronic conductivity, nano-structuring is a prerequisite for achieving satisfactory rate-capability. In this review, we analyze advantages and disadvantages of NASICON-type electrode materials and highlight electrode structure design principles for obtaining the desired electrochemical performance. Moreover, we give an overview of recent approaches to enhance electrical conductivity and structural stability of cathode and anode materials based on NASICON structure. We believe that this review provides a pertinent insight into relevant design principles and inspires further research in this respect.

Abstract
Nitrogen and sulfur dual-doped carbon layer wrapped Na3V2(PO4)3 nanoparticles (NVP@NSC) have been successfully fabricated by the facile solid-state method. In this hierarchical structure, the Na3V2(PO4)3 nanoparticles are well dispersed and closely coated by nitrogen and sulfur dual-doped carbon layer, constructing an effective and interconnected conducting network to reduce the internal resistance. Furthermore, the uniform coating layers alleviate the agglomeration of Na3V2(PO4)3 as well as mitigate the side reaction between electrode and electrolyte. Because of the excellent electron transfer mutually enhancing sodium diffusion for this extraordinary structure, the NVP@NSC composite delivers an impressive discharge capacity of 113.0 mAh g-1 at 1 C and shows a capacity retention of 82.1% after 5000 cycles at an ultrahigh rate of 50 C, suggesting the remarkable rate capability and long cyclicity. Surprisingly, a reversible capacity of 91.1 mAh g-1 is maintained after 1000 cycles at 5 C under the elevated temperature of 55 °C. The approach of nitrogen and sulfur dual-doped carbon-coated Na3V2(PO4)3 provides an effective and promising strategy to enhance the ultrahigh rate and ultralong life property of cathode, which can be used for large-scale commercial production in sodium ion batteries.

Ascorbic Acid-Assisted Synthesis of Mesoporous Sodium Vanadium Phosphate Nanoparticles with Highly sp(2) -Coordinated Carbon Coatings as Efficient Cathode Materials for Rechargeable Sodium-Ion Batteries.

Abstract
Herein, mesoporous sodium vanadium phosphate nanoparticles with highly sp(2) -coordinated carbon coatings (meso-Na3 V2 (PO4 )3 /C) were successfully synthesized as efficient cathode material for rechargeable sodium-ion batteries by using ascorbic acid as both the reductant and carbon source, followed by calcination at 750 °C in an argon atmosphere. Their crystalline structure, morphology, surface area, chemical composition, carbon nature and amount were systematically explored. Following electrochemical measurements, the resultant meso-Na3 V2 (PO4 )3 /C not only delivered good reversible capacity (98 mAh g(-1) at 0.1 A g(-1) ) and superior rate capability (63 mAh g(-1) at 1 A g(-1) ) but also exhibited comparable cycling performance (capacity retention: ≈74 % at 450 cycles at 0.4 A g(-1) ). Moreover, the symmetrical sodium-ion full cell with excellent reversibility and cycling stability was also achieved (capacity retention: 92.2 % at 0.1 A g(-1) with 99.5 % coulombic efficiency after 100 cycles). These attributes are ascribed to the distinctive mesostructure for facile sodium-ion insertion/extraction and their continuous sp(2) -coordinated carbon coatings, which facilitate electronic conduction.
