NaTi2(PO4)3 (NTP) with a sodium superionic conductor three-dimensional (3D) framework is a promising anode material for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) because of its suitable potential and stable structure. Although its 3D structure enables high Na-ion diffusivity, low electronic conductivity severely limits NTP’s practical application in SIBs. Herein, we report porous NTP/C nanofibers (NTP/C-NFs) obtained via an electrospinning method. The NTP/C-NFs exhibit a high reversible capacity (120 mA h g–1 at 0.2 C) and a long cycling stability (a capacity retention of ∼93% after 700 cycles at 2 C). Furthermore, sodium-ion full cells and hybrid sodium-ion capacitors have also been successfully assembled, both of which exhibit high-rate capabilities and remarkable cycling stabilities because of the high electronic/ionic conductivity and impressive structural stability of NTP/C-NFs. The results show that the nanoscale-tailored NTP/C-NFs could deliver new insights into the design of high-performing and highly stable anode materials for room-temperature SIBs.

NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 /C (NC) composites decorated by carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were prepared via a sol-gel way, and employed as anode in aqueous lithium ion batteries . An effective conductive network was obtained by decoration of CNTs, which can interconnect NC particles. CNTs decoration has no obvious effect on lattice structure for NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 , and can enhance electrochemical properties for NC. Moreover, NC decorated by CNTs with optimal content of 8.8% (NC-CNTs-10) exhibits the highest electrochemical properties. NC-CNTs-10 delivers the discharge capacity of 96.4, 93.7, and 74.2 mAh g −1 at 0.5, 3, and 15C, respectively, with increase of 2.7, 15.1, and 38.2 mAh g −1 compared with NC. In addition, NC-CNTs-10 shows excellent cycling performance. Capacity retention for NC-CNTs-10 can reach 91.2% after 1000 cycles at a rate of 4C, 16.7% larger than that of pristine NC. Our study reveals that CNTs decoration is a simple way to raise electrochemical properties for NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 /C in aqueous lithium ion batteries .

Sodium superionic conductor NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 has attracted significant interest as an anode material for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). However, its practical application is hindered by its low inherent electrical conductivity, particularly at low temperatures. In this study, oxygen vacancies (V O ) were introduced into NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 nanoribbons to enhance sodium storage performance at low temperatures. X-ray diffraction with Rietveld refinement, electron paramagnetic resonance, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirm that NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 -2 nanoribbons (NTP-2) exhibit the richest V O concentration. These V O , which bridge TiO 6 octahedra and PO 4 tetrahedra, significantly enhance the antibonding interactions of Ti1–O2 and P1–O1 bonds, while stabilizing the bonding in NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 . The energy barrier for Na + migration is reduced to 0.40 eV involving the V O . The optimized NTP-2 anode demonstrates superior low-temperature performance, maintaining a capacity of 106.1 mAh g −1 (about 96.1 % of its initial capacity) at −20 °C after 300 cycles. Additionally, the NTP-2 anode exhibits a moderate Na + diffusion coefficient of 1.47 × 10 –11 cm 2 s −1 at −20 °C. Furthermore, the Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 //NTP-2 full cell retains a capacity of 64 mAh g −1 at −20 °C after 250 cycles, highlighting its potential for low-temperature applications. By integrating oxygen vacancies and nanoengineering, both electronic and ionic conductivities are significantly enhanced in NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 , positioning promising applications for SIBs in low-temperature environments.

NASICON-type NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 has been acknowledged as a promising anode for energy storage due to high ion conductivity and low cost. Nevertheless, intrinsic low electrical conductivity of NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 and low stability in aqueous electrolyte limit its further applications in aqueous lithium rechargeable battery. In this paper, polyaniline as carbon and nitrogen sources was employed to synthesize nitrogen-doped carbon coated NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 (NTP-P) composite by sol-gel approach and following calcination treatment. The loose and carbon-coated structure endows NTP-P with good structure stability and improved electrochemical kinetics . Compared with glucose-derived carbon-coated NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 composite, NTP-P exhibits superior rate and cycling performance. NTP-P with proper carbon content delivers the discharge capacity of 119.4 and 83.4 mAh g −1 at rate of 0.2 and 15 C, and its capacity retention can maintain 85.8% after 1000 cycles at 5 C. This research reveals that the integration of carbon coating and nitrogen doping by using polyaniline give an excellent method to enhance the electrochemical properties of electrode materials.

We are presenting a sol–gel method for building novel nanostructures made of nanosized F-doped Na1–2xTi2(PO4)3–xFx (NTP-Fx, x = 0, 0.02, 0.05, and 0.10) particles embedded in three-dimensional (3D) carbon matrices (NTP-Fx/C). This technique combines advantages of both zero-dimensional materials and 3D-carbon networks. Proper fluorine doping stabilizes the NTP structure and greatly enhances ion/electron transportation, leading to superhigh-rate electrochemical performance and ultralong cycle life. The composite electrode delivers high specific capacities of 121, 115, 112.2, 110.1, 107.7, 103.1, 85.8, and 62.5 mA h g–1 at 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, and 30 C, respectively. It retains an unbelievable ∼70% capacity after a thousand cycles at a rate as high as 10 C. Electroanalytical results reveal that fluorine doping significantly enhances Na+ diffusion kinetics. Meanwhile, density functional theory calculations demonstrate F-doped NTPs’ own outstanding electrochemical properties, which is due to the enhanced intrinsic ionic/electronic conductivity. The results show that anion doping is an efficient way to make high-performance NTP anodes for sodium-ion batteries.

Aqueous rechargeable batteries (ARBs) based on migration of two types of shuttle ions not only enrich the battery families but also make it more available for ARBs with operation potential higher than 1.2 V. In this paper, we report on electrochemical properties of ARBs in configuration of NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 /C||LiMn 2 O 4 , i.e. NTP/C||LMO. NTP/C was prepared through a simple and scalable co-precipitation post annealing treatment method and featured with hierarchical structure, high specific surface area, and abundant mesopores. The electrochemical properties of individual anode and cathode were examined in 1 mol L −1 Li 2 SO 4 , 1 mol L −1 Na 2 SO 4 , and 0.5 mol L −1 Li 2 SO 4 /0.5 mol L −1 Na 2 SO 4 mixed electrolyte, respectively. It is found that NTP/C exhibits superior operation in 1 mol L −1 Na 2 SO 4 and inferior operation in 1 mol L −1 Li 2 SO 4 while the situation is contrary for LMO. However, NTP/C||LMO full cells with Li + /Na + -mixed electrolyte exhibit enhanced electrochemical performance, presenting an anode-dependant electrochemical behavior. When operating at 1C, NTP/C||LMO with Li + /Na + -mixed electrolyte can deliver a discharge specific capacity ( C dis ) of 104.6 mA h g −1 based on the weight of NTP/C, and a specific energy ( E cell ) of 59.5 W h kg −1 with corresponding specific power of 76.8 W kg −1 based on the total weight of active electrode materials. After 220 cycles at 1C, the C dis and E cell remain 75.7 mA h g −1 and 43.0 W h kg −1 , respectively.

Metal zinc is used as anode in aqueous zinc-ion batteries due to its environmental protection, abundant storage, and high theoretical capacity. However, zinc anode has many challenges such as side reactions and zinc dendrites, which impede the further development of aqueous zinc-ion batteries. A facile strategy of constructing Sn doped NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 (NTP/Sn) protective layer on surface of zinc anode (Zn@NTP/Sn) was adopted to enhance the cycling stability of zinc anode in this work. Sn doped NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 was used to realize high-performance zinc anode via the structure design and interfacial characteristics, which are beneficial to accelerating transfer of Zn 2+ and improving interface performance. The average voltage hysteresis of Zn@NTP/Sn symmetric cell is only 17.4 mV at the current density of 0.4 mA cm −2 , which is much lower than that of bare Zn (75.8 mV) and Zn@NTP (43.7 mV) symmetric cells. Furthermore, Zn-MnO 2 full cell using Zn@NTP/Sn anode also shows good cycling performance. After 500 cycles at a current density of 1.2 A g −1 , Zn@NTP/Sn-MnO 2 full cell has the highest capacity of 124.2 mAh g −1 . While the bare Zn-MnO 2 and Zn@NTP-MnO 2 full cells only have 39.3 mAh g −1 and 74.2 mAh g −1 . The excellent electrochemical performance is related to improvement of wettability , increase of cell volume, and reduction of side reactions. In general, this work realizes a synergistic strategy combining structural design and interfacial modification by doping Sn for NTP as a protective coating layer for zinc anode, which provides a simple strategy for high-performance rechargeable aqueous zinc-ion batteries.

Besides targeting low-voltage intercalation, NaTi2(PO4)3 (NTP) is a promising negative electrode material for non-aqueous sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). However, the low electronic conductivity of this material inhibits its potential applications. Herein, we report the controllable synthesis of four interesting porous NTP nanocubes via a one-pot solvothermal method. The as-synthesized products have shown excellent high-rate performance and cycling stability as SIB anodes. After 10 000 cycles at a 10C rate, 75.5% of the initial capacity is retained, which exceeds those of most of the reported SIB anode materials. Even at an extremely high rate of 100C, the NTP nanocubes can still deliver considerable reversible capacities after deep charging/discharging for 15 000 cycles. The superior electrochemical performances can be attributed to their unique nanostructures. We hope that such a finding of the new construction will enrich the NTP system and provide several possible candidates for SIB anodes.

In this study, a nitrogen and sulfur co-doped sodium titanium phosphate/hole graphene (N,S-NTP/rHGO) was synthesized by one-step hydrothermal method using thiourea as N/S source. The microstructure characterization confirms that N and S heteroatoms have been integrated into the graphene skeleton. The electrochemistry and electrosorption properties of the N,S-NTP/rHGO electrodes were investigated for hybrid capacitor deionization (HCDI). The results indicate that the specific capacitance of N,S-NTP/rHGO electrodes can reach 530.46 F g −1 at a scan rate of 0.2 mV s −1 , which is 33.8% higher than that of the sample without doping. Moreover, the HCDI cell based on the N,S-NTP/rHGO-2 shows a high desalination capacity of 36.87 mg g −1 and a rapid ion removal rate of 0.66 mg g −1 s −1 , which is more than twice as high as the sample without doping (0.3 mg g −1 s −1 ) at an initial NaCl concentration of 800 mg L −1 and applied voltage of 1.4 V. Further, the N,S-NTP/rHGO electrode exhibits excellent regeneration ability. Therefore, this study suggests that as-prepared N,S-NTP/rHGO composite exhibits a great potential application for high-performance HCDI systems.

Rechargeable aqueous sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) are urgently pursued as a low-cost candidate for grid-scale storage of intermittent renewable energies. NASICON-type NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 holds great promises as anode material for aqueous SIBs owing to the high theoretical capacity and low redox potential , but being severely challenged by poor cycling performance and low reaction kinetics. Herein, graphene-integrated NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 /C composite is prepared with a facile sol-gel approach as anode material for aqueous SIBs. Electrochemical properties of the material in high-concentration aqueous electrolyte (6 M NaClO 4 ) are systematically investigated by using cycling voltammetry , galvanostatic technique and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy . It is found that it shows an improved charge/discharge performance with a high practical capacity of 104.6 mAh g −1 at 100 mA g −1 , excellent high-rate capability with a reversible capacity of 88.0 mAh g −1 at 2000 mA g −1 , and good cycling stability with 92% capacity retention after 100 cycles. The improved electrochemical performance is attributed to the synergetic contribution of carbon-blending nanostructure and high-concentration electrolyte, which largely enhances structural stability and reaction kinetics of the material. In addition, the redox mechanism is discussed based on experimental results from cyclic voltammetry and X-ray diffraction technique.

Demonstrating the enhanced intrinsic ionic/electronic conductivity and structural stability of NTP-Gd-C electrode. Revealing the great potential for commercial applications of the NTP-Gd-C material.
