High capacity hard carbon anodes for sodium ion batteries in additive free electrolyte

TLDR
In this article, the performance of hard carbon prepared from sugar pyrolysis was investigated against sodium anodes and additive free EC:PC based electrolyte which appears to induce the formation of a more conducting solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) than that produced in the presence of 2% fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC).

Sodium ion insertion in hollow carbon nanowires for battery applications.

TL;DR: Hollow carbon nanowires prepared through pyrolyzation of a hollow polyaniline nanowire precursor deliver high reversible capacity and excellent cycling stability and the good Na-ion insertion property is attributed to the short diffusion distance in the HCNWs and the large interlayer distance.
