Article Abstract
Hard carbon (HC) is a promising anode material for sodium-ion batteries, yet still suffers from low initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE) and unstable solid electrolyte interphase (SEI). Herein, sodium diphenyl ketone (Na-DK) is applied to realize dual-function presodiation for HC anodes. It compensates the irreversible Na uptake at the oxygen-containing functional groups and reacts with carbon defects of five/seven-membered rings for quasi-metallic sodium in HC. The as-formed sodium induces robust NaF-rich SEI on HC in 1.0 M NaPF in diglyme, favoring the interfacial reaction kinetics and stable Na insertion and extraction. This renders the presodiated HC (pHC) with high ICE of ≈100 % and capacity retention of 82.4 % after 6800 cycles. It is demonstrated to couple with Na V (PO ) cathodes in full cells to show high capacity retention of ≈100 % after 700 cycles. This work provides in-depth understanding of chemical presodiation and a new strategy for highly stable sodium-ion batteries.

Isovalent anion substitution has been shown to have a tremendous effect on the transport properties in lithium halide solid ionic conductors. Although sodium-ion solid state batteries based on chloride ionic conductors have recently gathered significant attention, investigations of anion substitution in sodium containing chlorides remain scarce. Here, we investigate the role of Br isoelectronic anion substitution in a perovskite-related compound with nominal composition of NaTaCl.

Hard carbon (HC) has emerged as a promising anode material for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) owing to its low cost, abundant renewable resources, and high specific capacity. However, its practical application is significantly hindered by the severe initial irreversible capacity loss resulting from sodium consumption during the first cycle. To address this issue, a variety of presodiation strategies have been developed to compensate for the sodium loss and improve the initial coulombic efficiency.

Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) are promising alternatives to lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) owing to abundant resources and cost-effectiveness. However, cathode materials face persistent challenges in structural stability, ion kinetics, and cycle life. This review highlights the transformative potential of high-entropy (HE) strategies that leveraging multi-principal element synergies to address these limitations entropy-driven mechanisms.

Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) have emerged as promising cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) due to their low cost, simple preparation, and high theoretical specific capacity. The integration of high-entropy concepts with framework-structured PBAs has pioneered a new pathway for performance optimization in SIBs cathodes. However, most scholars have only studied the five elements constituting high entropy as a whole, while challenges such as the role of each element and optimization of the proportions among constituent elements remain unresolved.
