Correlation Between Microstructure and Na Storage Behavior in Hard Carbon
Biao Zhang,Biao Zhang,Camelia Matei Ghimbeu,Christel Laberty,Christel Laberty,Cathie Vix-Guterl,Jean-Marie Tarascon +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a single voltage Na uptake plateau at similar or equal to 0.1 V with a capacity of 200 mAh g(-1) for CNFs carbonized at above 2000 degrees C. This specific performance may be nested in the higher degree of graphitization, lower active surface area, and different porous texture of the carbon nanofibers.
