Article Abstract
Poly-(vinylidene fluoride--hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF-HFP) has broad applications across various metal-ion battery systems, such as a binder for electrodes, a supporting matrix for electrolytes, and a separator material. Due to its excellent mechanical properties, PVDF-HFP has become an excellent candidate for fabricating gel and solid-state electrolytes in sodium-based batteries. However, in this study, we noticed notable side reactions occurring at the interface of PVDF-HFP membranes and Na metal. These reactions not only alter chemical compositions but also further affect the surface morphology and adhesive properties of membranes. Similar phenomena are observed in other polyfluoroalkyl-based membranes (PVDF and PTFE). Therefore, we systematically studied the reaction mechanisms between the Na metal and these polymers. The influence of different functional groups (-F, -CF, -H) and their arrangement on the reaction extent has also been discussed. Finally, we concluded with the key factors driving these side reactions and provided new perspectives for designing polymers tailored for sodium-based batteries.

Sodium-based dual-ion batteries (SDIBs) attract extensive attention in stationary energy storage for their low cost, environmental friendliness, and high working voltage. However, traditional liquid electrolytes for SDIBs undergo solvent co-intercalation and severe oxidation decomposition at high voltage, causing unstable cathode structure and low Coulombic efficiency, especially with high loading (>5 mg cm). Herein, an interfacial self-compatible quasi-solid electrolyte (ACPE) is developed via an additive-induced solvation design strategy.

Electrolytes shape solvation structures that govern ionic transport, stability, and interfacial properties in energy storage systems. Sodium-based dual-ion shuttling systems offer high-voltage and fast-charging potential but face challenges such as solvent co-intercalation, electrolyte decomposition, and low Coulombic efficiency, partly due to limited anion-focused electrolyte design. Herein, a low-concentration dual-ionic weakly solvating electrolyte (DWSE) is introduced, leveraging functionalized nano-graphene oxide additives to modulate the solvation environments of Na and PF .

Sodium-based solid-state batteries may represent safe and cost-effective energy storage devices, complementing Li-ion for specific applications such as grid storage. Thus, sustainable solid-state electrolytes (SSE) with high ionic conductivity need to be developed. Sodium metal halide SSEs have attracted significant attention due to their ionic conductivity, electrochemical stability, and adequate processibility.
