Abstract

O3-type NaNiO2-based cathode materials suffer irreversible phase transition when they are charged to above 4.0 V in sodium-ion batteries. To solve this problem, we partially substitute Ni2+ in O3-type NaNi0.45Mn0.25Ti0.3O2 by Co3+. NaNi0.45Mn0.25Ti0.3O2 with co-substitution possesses an expanded interlayer and exhibits higher rate capability, as well as cyclic stability, compared with the pristine cathode in 2.0
