Understanding the Design of Cathode Materials for Na-Ion Batteries
TLDR
In this article , a short review highlights the intrinsic challenges and corresponding strategies for the extensively researched layered transition metal oxides, polyanionic compounds, and Prussian blue analogues.Abstract:
With the escalating demand for sustainable energy sources, the sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) appear as a pragmatic option to develop large energy storage grid applications in contrast to existing lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) owing to the availability of cheap sodium precursors. Nevertheless, the commercialization of SIBs has not been carried out so far due to the inefficacies of present electrode materials, particularly cathodes. Thus, from a future application perspective, this short review highlights the intrinsic challenges and corresponding strategies for the extensively researched layered transition metal oxides, polyanionic compounds, and Prussian blue analogues. In addition, the commercial feasibility of existing materials considering relevant parameters is also discussed. The insights provided in the current review may serve as an aid in designing efficient cathode materials for state-of-the-art SIBs.read more
