Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) are recognized as attractive alternatives for grid-scale electrochemical energy storage applications. Transition metal oxide cathodes represent one of the most dynamic materials for industrialization among the various cathodes for SIBs. Here, a cation-doped cathode NaMnTiO with a tunnel structure is introduced, which undergoes a lowered volume change of only 5.26% during the Na insertion/extraction process. Moreover, the average Na diffusion coefficients are enhanced by more than 3-fold upon the doping of the Ti cation. The obtained cathode delivers a practically usable capacity of 119 mAh g at 0.1 C as well as an enhanced discharge capacity of 96 mAh g at 5 C. Durability is demonstrated by the retained 71 mAh g after 1000 cycles, corresponding to a capacity retention of 74%. This work demonstrates that the reticular NaMnTiO is a promising ultrastable cathode material for the development of long-life sodium-ion batteries.

Metal sulfide electrodes for sodium-ion batteries face trade-offs among high capacity, fast kinetics, and stability. The challenge lies in breaking and restoring metal-sulfur bonds and allowing rapid ionic transport. Here we explore the boundary of conversion- and intercalation-type metal sulfides to develop ideal sodium-ion storage materials.

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS) is a promising anode for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) due to its high theoretical capacity and layered structure. However, a poor reversible conversion reaction and a low initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE) limit its practical application. This study systematically investigated the potential of pre-intercalated sodium ions molybdenum disulfide (Na-MoS) as an anode material for SIBs.

The development of high-performance sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) is crucial to meeting the growing demand for low-cost, sustainable energy storage alternatives to lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, achieving stable cycling performance in SIBs is challenging, particularly with tin (Sn) foil anodes, which suffer from issues like sodium trapping and structural degradation due to significant volume changes during sodiation and desodiation. In this study, we investigate the electrochemo-mechanical behavior of Sn foil anodes, focusing on the mechanisms of sodium trapping and structural evolution that impair battery performance.

Development of sustainable synthesis methods of organic electrode materials (OEMs) for sodium (Na)-ion batteries must take hold rapidly in large scale-synthesis if subsequent commercialisation is to occur. We report a facile and rapid gram-scale synthesis method based on microwave irradiation for disodium naphthalene-2,6-dicarboxylate (Na-NDC) and mono/disodium benzene-1,4-dicarboxylate (Na-BDC) as model compounds. Phase purity and formation of materials was confirmed by various characterisation techniques.

Robust interfaces in anodes play a crucial role in boosting sodium-ion battery (SIB) performance. However, the fragile interfaces constructed by a two-step synthesis or artificial stack are prone to be destroyed during the charging/discharging processes, which significantly reduces the lifetime of SIBs. Here, a facile construction strategy is developed to produce robust interfaces in hollow sphere-like CoSe/nitrogen-doped carbon (HS-CoSe/NC) using intrinsic Co, N, C in metal-organic framework as precursors, which enhance the electron/ion diffusion kinetics.
