Flexible carbon nanofibers with multichannel and porous structure as freestanding anode for excellent sodium storage
JOURNAL OF ENERGY STORAGE(2024)
摘要
Hard carbon is the most commonly used anode material for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). However, it has the drawback of having inferior capacity at high rates due to low ion-diffusion kinetics. Rational design of hard carbon with a hierarchical pore structure and multichannel structure can address this issue. Herein, we introduced an electrospinning method for preparing flexible carbon nanofibers as a freestanding anode for SIBs. The pore structure can be modified by adjusting the amount of Pluronic F-127 (F127) added to the spinning solution. This strategy results in the formation of numerous micropores and mesopores, along with pore-derived defects, effectively increasing the number of sites available for sodium storage. The existence of multichannel facilitates the migration of sodium ions. PCNF-1 possesses an appropriate pore structure with the least amount of added pore-forming agent exhibits exceptional electrochemical performance. It delivers a reversible capacity of 286 mA h g-1 at a current density of 50 mA g-1 with an initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE) of 82 %. At 5 A g-1, it delivers a capacity of 211 mAh g-1. Furthermore, it demonstrates a high retention rate of 79 % at 1 A g-1 even after 1000 cycles. Notably, in full-cell tests, PCNF-1, when paired with a Na3V2(PO4)3 cathode, achieved a specific capacity of 253 mA h g-1 in the second cycle and maintained a retention rate of 51 % after 200 cycles at a current density of 1 A g-1.
