With the increasing demand for large-scale energy storage, great progress has been made in discovering new advanced energy storage materials. Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) have attracted much attention in recent years due to their use of abundant sodium resources and their comparable electrochemical capacity to lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). In this paper, we developed novel hollow core-shell Ni-Co bimetallic phosphide nanocubes with N-doped carbon coatings (Ni1.2Co0.8P@N-C) as the anode material for SIBs. The material was synthesized through a low-temperature phosphorization method using resorcinol formaldehyde (RF) resin coating with a Ni-Co Prussian blue analogue (PBA) as a template and …

Owning to sodium’s high abundance, relatively low cost, similar chemical properties to Li and very suitable redox potential of E0(Na+/Na) = -2.71 V versus SHE which is only 0.3 V above that of lithium, rechargeable sodium ion battery hold much promise as potential alternatives to current lithium ion batteries for energy storage applications. Carbon material is regarded as the most promising anode candidate for sodium ion battery. Particularly, carbon nanosheet with porous structure and high conductivity is expected to have improved sodium ion storage properties. In this paper, we present a two-step pyrolysis-based method for facile synthesis of porous carbon …

Journal of Electrochemistry
Series of spinel lithium titanate (Li4Ti5O12) materials were synthesized by one-step solid-state reaction using lithium acetate and TiO2 as raw materials under different temperatures (750/800/850 °C) and atmospheres (N2/air). The as-prepared Li4Ti5O12 materials were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, cyclic voltammotry and charge-discharge test to analyze their crystal structures, microstructures and electrochemical performances. The results show that the Li4Ti5O12（L-800N）material obtained at 800 °C under nitrogen atmosphere exhibited better electrochemical performance and smaller particle size. The initial …

Journal of Electrochemistry
Spinel Li4Ti5O12 was prepared by hydrothermal method using commercial anatase (TiO2) and lithium hydroxide (LiOH) as raw materials. The effects of the LiOH concentration of lithium hydroxide, hydrothermal reaction time and calcination temperature on the structure and electrochemical performance of Li4Ti5O12 were investigated. The formation process of Li4Ti5O12 was also proposed. The micro-structure and morphology wereas characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM techniques, and the electrochemical performance was analyzed by galvanostatic charge-discharge test. The results show that the pure phase spinel Li4Ti5O12 can be …

Journal of Electrochemistry
The tin dioxide/carbon xerogel composites were synthesized by using vacuum infiltration method. Structural characterization and morphology of the composites were investigated by using XRD, TEM and SEM techniques. BET test was performed to determine the pore size distributions of carbon xerogels and the composites. The results showed that the nano-sized SnO2 particles (5~10 nm) were encapsulated in the pores of carbon xerogels. During the electrochemical tests the SnO2 in the composites exhibited capacity retention of 61.9% after 100 cycles of charge-discharge tests at 100 mA/g.
