摘要
One of the most demanding goals in the field of Na-ion batteries is to find an appropriate anode material that delivers high capacities and can endure numerous cycles without structural degradation. Antimony stands out with a theoretical capacity of 660 mAh·g−1 and relatively high electrical conductivity. However, its challenges are pulverization and degradation of its microstructure due to volume changes. In this work, we used a solvothermal reaction to synthesize the composite material Sb/Sb4O5Cl2/C, which is made of Sb with branch-shaped morphology and Sb4O5Cl2 with cuboids-shaped morphology. The mechanism of the (de)sodiation of the composite material was analyzed both through operando and ex-situ measurements: X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, dilatometry, and online electrochemical mass spectrometry. The results show great mechanical integrity of the electrode, ensured by a lot of space for volume changes in the branch-shaped microstructure, buffered expansion/contraction by the amorphous matrix (sodiated Sb4O5Cl2), and high electronic conductivity, thanks to carbon. The microstructural features and the multistep (de)sodiation mechanism of the Sb/Sb4O5Cl2/C composite result in excellent cycling stabilities. © 2024
