Abstract
Recently, the eco-friendly sodium-ion batteries with low price show huge potential for electrical energy storage. A facile strategy to synthesize FeWO has been carried out through a solid state method. The as-prepared powders are characterized by the X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The electrochemical properties of this material as an anode electrode for sodium-ion batteries have been characterized by galvanostatic charge-discharge measurements. The galvanostatic charge-discharge measurements, using the as-prepared FeWO4 as a working electrode with a voltage range of 0.01-2.5 V vs. Na+/Na has disclosed an excellent electrochemical performance. Even under a high current density, the discharge capacity can still maintain at a relatively high level. All results indicate that this material is a good candidate for an anode material of sodium-ion batteries.
