Abstract
In this paper, a series of NaxNi0.25Mn0.75O2 (x = 0.6–0.9) have been designed, synthesized and applied as cathode materials of rechargeable sodium-ion batteries. The increase of sodium content (x) can greatly improve the theoretical specific capacities of the Na–Ni–Mn–O materials, but also cause the structural evolution and even induce the formation of impurity phase, which are unfavourable to the electrochemical properties. Electrochemical tests show that the formed Na0.7Ni0.25Mn0.75O2 can deliver the highest reversible capacity of up to 162 mAh g−1 at 0.2 C and capacity retention of about 60% after 100 cycles, indicating that only the as-prepared Na0.7Ni0.25Mn0.75O2 micro-sheets with P2-phase achieve the best balance of structural stability and high capacity during the sodiation/desodiation reaction.
