卤氧化铋(BiOCl)因具有较高的理论比容量和独特的层状结构,是一种有潜力的高性能钠离子电池(SIBs)负极材料。然而,其面临储钠过程中体积膨胀大、储钠机制不明和材料合成方法复杂等诸多挑战,严重制约了其实际应用。
近日,厦门大学张桥保教授等人在Science China Materials发表研究论文,提出了一种简便高效的合成策略成功构筑了高性能储钠BiOCl纳米片负极材料。
本文要点
1) 通过深入的原位/非原位显微和谱学表征技术结合电化学分析,证实了BiOCl纳米片负极在嵌/脱钠循环后,生成了金属Bi和Na3OCl。所形成的金属Bi在后续的循环过程中作为储钠的活性物质,而形成的Na3OCl有利于增强固体电解质中间相(SEI)的稳定性和促进钠离子的快速传输。此外,形成的金属Bi在循环过程中逐渐转变为纳米多孔结构,进一步提高钠离子的传输效率和缓冲材料的体积膨胀。2) 制备得到的BiOCl纳米片负极展现出了优异的倍率性能和循环稳定性。由预钠循环后的BiOCl纳米片负极与磷酸钒钠(NVP)正极匹配组装的全电池,也表现出了优异的倍率和循环性能。这项工作为开发高性能的钠离子电池负极提供了有价值的见解。本文将收录于“2025 Emerging Investigator Issue”。Figure 1.
