Abstract

Abstract:

In this paper, the Na₃V₂(PO₄)₃/C cathode materials with (113) preferred orientation for sodium ion batteries were obtained by a simple sol-gel adjuvant electrospinning method. The electrochemical performance of two different morphology Na₃V₂(PO₄)₃/C materials were compared, which were synthetized through different polymers Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and Polyethylene oxide (PEO) under the optimal conditions, it further demonstrates that the significant role of electrospinning method to prepare the (113) preferred Na₃V₂(PO₄)₃/C materials. At the same current density of 0.1C, NVP-PVP exhibited an initial specific capacity of 112.5 mA·h/g, and still stabling at 98.1 mA·h/g after 50 cycles, however, NVP-PEO can only keep at 34 mA·h/g. Even after 100 cycles, NVP-PVP can show a reversible capacity of 88.2 mA·h/g. The results show that PVP has the advantage at fabricating the distinct nanofiber structure and the uniform conductive carbon framework, which will promote the electrochemical performance of Na₃V₂(PO₄)₃.

Key words: sodium ion battery, Na₃V₂(PO₄)₃, electrospinning, preferred orientation
