| Abstract Scope |
For centuries, researchers have been trying to solve the energy issue for human civilization. With growing consideration on environmental problems, people are trying to harvest energy from alternative energy resources such as solar, wind and tide, where the energy storage system (ESS) becomes mandatory to address intermittency. Sodium-ion battery (NIB) can be one of the most promising candidates for ESS. In this presentation, a comprehensive study on electrolyte, anode and cathode for an industry-standard non-flammable NIB will be discussed. More specifically, investigations on thermal stability and related solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) studies on three types of anode material, Na2Ti3O7/C, graphite, hard carbon (HC) and two types of cathode, modified Na3V2(PO4)3 (NVP) and O3-type and P3-type layered oxide will be discussed. We will also present performance of 18650-type commercial cells fabricated using modified NVP as cathode with HC as anode. |
