Dual-textured Prussian Blue nanocubes as sodium ion storage materials

초록

Sodium ion batteries are being highlighted as a promising energy storage system to resolve the critical issues associated with lithium ion battery usage due to a limited quantity of lithium resources on the earth. Although recent advances in sodium ion battery technology have been remarkable, the reversible capacities and cyclic performance of sodium ion batteries should be further advanced prior to their successful implementation. Herein, we demonstrate dual-textured Prussian blue nanocubes prepared via simple acid etching as a reliable sodium storage material. Taking advantage of their hybrid microstructure composed of porous and non-porous domains, dual-textured Prussian blue nanocubes exhibit high reversible capacities, good rate capabilities, and stable cyclic performance. Moreover, the nanocubes exhibit excellent dimensional stability even after 100 cycles, offering new opportunities for the development of robust and high-performance sodium rechargeable batteries.
