The sodium super ion conductor (NASICON) structure materials have attracted extensive attention because of its open three-dimensional crystal network framework and fast sodium ion migration rate. However, the poor electronic conductivity due to the presence of phosphate groups and the consequent high cost have been a barrier to commercialization. In this work, Na 4 MnV(PO 4 ) 3 (NMVP) with three-dimensional porous structure is synthesized in situ using Aspergillus niger as a biological template (noted as NMVP/ANDC). The cell wall of Aspergillus niger is rich in hydroxyl groups , which can adsorb metal ions well, so that NMVP particles can be synthesized on Aspergillus niger without stacking and agglomeration. NMVP grows along Aspergillus niger mycelium has a spongy-like three-dimensional porous network structure, which helps the contact between active materials and electrolyte, reduces the migration distance of sodium ions, and improves the conductivity of active materials. Therefore, NMVP/ANDC has good rate performance and cycle stability. It can provide 109 mAh g −1 at 0.5 C and 79.6% capacity retention after 3000 cycles at 5 C. The biological template method is proposed in this paper opens up a simple way for the preparation of other three-dimensional porous network structural materials.

Nasicon-type Li 1+x Al x Ge 2-x (PO 4 ) 3 (x = 0–0.5) electrolytes have been prepared via a facile and economic method. All synthetic electrolyte samples show Nasicon structure and good crystallinity . The Al doping content has a great influence on the electrical conductivity of electrolyte. The electrolyte with the composition of Li 1.4 Al 0.4 Ge 1.6 (PO 4 ) 3 exhibits a highest electrical conductivity of 2.72 × 10 −4 S/cm at room temperature , which is mainly attributable to fewer impurity and dense electrolyte structure. The LiFePO 4 /Li cell assembled with this electrolyte delivers an initial specific discharge capacity of 127.86 mAh g −1 at a charge/discharge current density of 0.5C at 60 °C, which shows an excellent cycling performance with high discharge capacity of 131.2 mAhg −1 after 150 cycles. These results suggest that the Li 1.4 Al 0.4 Ge 1.6 (PO 4 ) 3 electrolyte is a potential electrolyte for all solid state lithium-ion battery.

Sodium super ion conductor (NASICON) structure materials, known for fast diffusion channels for Na + , are promising solid electrolyte materials for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). However, the high carbon content in the NASICON electrolyte materials originated from the carbothermal reduction (CR) reaction will cause short-circuit and self-discharge of the batteries. Herein, we developed a facile and straightforward two-stage calcining strategy to prepare Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 (NVP) with high purity and crystallinity. By precisely controlling the dosage of reducing agent and heat temperature, the purity of NVP can reach 99.97%. Moreover, the NVP film was prepared by the as-synthesized pure NVP powder via fast hot-pressing sinter, whose Vickers hardness is (5.0 ± 0.4) × 10 2 HV and relative density is 99.05%. This study provides a safe and facile strategy to prepare high-purity NVP powder and high-quality NVP films, which is of great significance in exploring NVP as a solid electrolyte for SIBs.

Na superionic conductor ( NASICON)-structured Na 4 MnCr(PO 4 ) 3 (NMCP) possessing unique three-electron transfer process renders admirable energy density for sodium ion batteries (SIBs). However, the current issues like its sluggish Na + diffusion kinetics, deficient intrinsic conductivity, and unsatisfactory structural stability, hinder its practical application. Herein, a selective replacement of O elements in PO 4 group by Cl anions in the NMCP system was developed to significantly enhance its electrochemical performance. The results affirm that the enhanced performance of Cl doped samples can be attributed to the enlargement of cell size, the creation of Na vacancies and the weakness of Na2 O bond after Cl doping. The as-prepared Na 3.85 □ 0.15 MnCr(PO 3.95 Cl 0.05 ) 3 /C (NMCPC − 15/C) cathode delivers a high capacity (128.0 mAh/g at 50 mA g −1 ) and excellent rate performance (73.0 mAh/g at 1000 mA g −1 ) in contrast to NMCP/C that merely provides 105.2 mAh/g at 50 mA g −1 and reduces to 47.4 mAh/g at 1000 mA g −1 . Meanwhile, NMCPC − 15/C shows a capacity retention of 60.7 % at 1000 mA g −1 after 500 cycles, while only 37.1 % for NMCP/C in the same test conditions. Moreover, the satisfactory performance and energy density of NMCPC − 15/C||hard carbon (HC) full cell confirm the potential practicality of NMCPC − 15. Therefore, chloride ions doping into NMCP has practical application prospects in the preparation of high-performance cathode materials and our work also offers new inspiration to apply anion doping strategies in promoting the performance of the other NASICON-structured cathodes for SIBs.

Sodium (Na) super ion conductor (NASICON) structure Na3MnTi(PO4)3 (NMTP) is considered a promising cathode for sodium-ion batteries due to its reversible three-electron reaction. However, the inferior electronic conductivity and sluggish reaction kinetics limit its practical applications. Herein, we successfully constructed a three-dimensional cross-linked porous architecture NMTP material (AsN@NMTP/C) by a natural microbe of Aspergillus niger (AsN), and the structure of different NMTP cathodes was optimized by adjusting different transition metal Mn/Ti ratios. Both approaches effectively altered the three-dimensional NMTP structure, not only improving electronic conductivity and controlling Na+ diffusion pathways but also enhancing the electrochemical kinetics of the material. The resultant AsN@NMTP/C-650, sintered at 650 °C, exhibits better electrochemical performance with higher reversible three-electron reactions corresponding to the voltage platforms of Ti4+/3+, Mn3+/2+, and Mn4+/3+ around 2.1, 3.6, and 4.1 V (vs Na+/Na), respectively. The capacity retention rate is up to 89.3% after 1000 cycles at a 2C rate. Moreover, a series of results confirms that the Na3.4Mn1.2Ti0.8(PO4)3 cathode has the most excellent electrochemical performance when the Mn/Ti ratio is 1.2/0.8, with a high capacity of 96.59 mAh g–1 and 97.1% capacity retention after 500 cycles.

The highly efficient and homogeneous heating merits of microwave irradiation facilitates the Na3V2(PO4)3 achieving excellent crystal structure, uniform carbon coating, as well as ideal particle size. After microwave irradiation, a specific capacity of 96.5 mAh g−1 is obtained for the first intercalation of lithium ion into Na3V2(PO4)3 at 0.1 C rate. For long-term cycling stability, the capacity retention reaches 84.4% at 5 C rate after 500 cycles. The unique intercalation/extraction characteristic promises Na3V2(PO4)3 an ideal candidate material for next-generation hybrid ion storage system.

Due to the uniform distribution of sodium in the crust, the increasing demand for high specific energy and long life in terms of energy storage is placing higher requests on sodium-ion battery technology. The activation of multi-electron reactions in NASICON sodium-ion battery cathode materials can not only reduce the use of vanadium, but also effectively increase the specific energy, therefore, it has received enormous attention from researchers. In this report, the importance of the covalent proportion of metal-oxygen bond in activating the V 4+ /V 5+ redox with higher discharge voltage in Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 has been extensively studied. Advanced characterization methods and theoretical calculations comprehensively explain the effects of Zn 2+ , Mg 2+ , and Cu 2+ on V 3+ substitution and the corresponding electrochemical behavior and structural change behavior. Moreover, a complete two-phase reaction in the high voltage reaction region (3.88 V) was observed in Na 3 V 1.5 Cu 0.5 (PO 4 ) 3 . Our results highlight the importance of the covalent proportion of metal-oxygen bonds in activating multi-electron reactions in NASICON structures.

Sodium super-ionic conductor (NASICON) structured Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 (NVP), a promising cathode material for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs), benefits by its unique three-dimensional (3D) channel structure. However, the inherent characteristics of NVP (such as low electrical conductivity) usually lead to inferior rate and long-cycling performance, which miss the requirements of practical application in electrical energy storage systems (ESSs). Herein, we propose the synthesis of porous high-crystalline Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 /C nanoplates (NVP/C-P) via hydrothermal method and post-calcination. The porous nanoplate structure provides increased specific surface area and shortened diffusion pathway for ion/electron transport. Consequently, NVP/C-P cathodes exhibit a high specific capacity (117 mAh g −1 , 0.2 C), exceptional rate performance (76.5 mAh g −1 , 100 C) and long cyclic stability (10,000 cycles).

In recent years, sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) have been considered as one of the most promising alternatives to lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Here, a new Na-super-ionic conductor (NASICON) cathode material NaFe 2 PO 4 (SO 4 ) 2 is successfully prepared through solid state method for SIBs. While the poor electronic conductivity of iron-based materials results in its poor rate and cycle performance. Then the electrochemical is effectively promoting via Ca 2+ doping. Na 0.84 Ca 0.08 Fe 2 PO 4 (SO 4 ) 2 have achieved considerable electrochemical properties. The first discharge specific capacity is 121.6 mA h g −1 at 25 mA g −1 with the voltage platform (∼3.1 V) corresponding to Fe 2+/3+ . After 100 cycles, the capacity retention is 55.1 %. The excellent electrochemical performance is caused by some Na + is substituted by Ca 2+ and leading to the fast sodium kinetics, which is well proved by the powder X-ray diffraction pattern and well corresponding to the galvanostatic intermittent titration technique and cyclic voltammetry testing result (the diffusivity values are around at 10 −12 cm 2 s −1 ).

Developing high-voltage cathode materials is critical for sodium-ion batteries to boost energy density. NASICON (Na super-ionic conductor)-structured Na x MnM(PO 4 ) 3 materials (M represents transition metal) have drawn increasing attention due to their features of robust crystal framework, low cost, as well as high voltage based on Mn 4+ /Mn 3+ and Mn 3+ /Mn 2+ redox couples. However, full activation of Mn 4+ /Mn 3+ redox couple within NASICON framework is still a great challenge. Herein, a novel NASICON-type Na 4 MnCr(PO 4 ) 3 material with highly reversible Mn 4+ /Mn 3+ redox reaction is discovered. It proceeds a two-step reaction with voltage platforms centered at 4.15 and 3.52 V versus Na + /Na, delivering a capacity of 108.4 mA h g −1 . The Na 4 MnCr(PO 4 ) 3 cathode also exhibits long durability over 500 cycles and impressive rate capability up to 10 C. The galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT) test shows fast Na diffusivity which is further verified by density functional theory calculations. The high electrochemical activity derives from the 3D robust framework structure, fast kinetics, and pseudocapacitive contribution. The sodium storage mechanism of the Na 4 MnCr(PO 4 ) 3 cathode is deeply studied by ex situ X-ray diffraction (XRD) and ex situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), revealing that both solid-solution and two-phase reactions are involved in the Na + ions extraction/insertion process.

Mn 0.5 Ti 2 (PO 4 ) 3 with a NASICON structural is used as an anode material in potassium-ion batteries due to its abundance of vacancies that can hold potassium ions . This characteristic not only contributes to its excellent stability but also results in a high specific capacity. However, the poor electrical conductivity of the polyanionic type structure limits the material's ability to fully utilize its capacity. In this paper, the conductivity and electrochemical stability of the Mn 0.5 Ti 2 (PO 4 ) 3 anode material are enhanced through composite formation with an F-doped carbon layer. The introduction of F into the carbon matrix creates a large number of vacancy defects and F active sites. The vacancies enhance the transport of potassium ions on the Mn 0.5 Ti 2 (PO 4 ) 3 material's surface, while the active sites exhibit strong electronegativity , improving the absorption of potassium ions. Therefore, the diffusion impedance of potassium ions is significantly reduced, leading to an increased diffusion rate of potassium ions. Attributing to the improved reaction kinetics, the Mn 0.5 Ti 2 (PO 4 ) 3 @F-doped carbon composite demonstrates a high specific capacity of 86 mA h g −1 at 10,000 mA g −1 when used as the anode for potassium-ion batteries. Even more, the specific capacity remains a capacity of 136 mA g −1 after 3000 cycles at 1000 mA h g −1 . This study enhances our comprehension of material design by investigating the alteration of carbon matrix to promote the electrochemical characteristics of materials.
