This review comprehensively discusses the use of active site carbonaceous anodes to enhance the performance of sodium-ion batteries, covering categorization based on Na storage mechanism, concepts of active site types, analysis methods, and future development directions. It addresses the advantages, issues, and potential solutions for multiple active site carbonaceous Na anodes.
Owing to the earth-abundant resources, cost effective materials and stable electrochemical properties, sodium-ions batteries (SIBs) show long-term potential in responding to the rapid consumption of lithium resources and the ever-increasing development of new energy storage devices. Nevertheless, the intrinsic properties of the large ion radius (Na(+)1.02 angstrom vs Li(+)0.76 angstrom) and positive reduction potential (Na/Na+ -2.71 V vs Li/Li+ -3.04 V) may impede ion diffusion, thus causing serious volume expansion, resulting in poor cycling stability. To address these issues, the incorporation of active sites into carbonaceous anode is considered as an efficient strategy to enhance interfacial compatibility, enlarge interlayer distance, and supply reversible Faradic pseudo-capacitance. Herein, the multiple active sites carbonaceous anodes for SIBs anode are comprehensively reviewed. Typically, carbonaceous materials are categorized into diffusion and surface controlled based on Na storage mechanism, and the concepts of intrinsic/extrinsic active sites are proposed according to the types of active sites. Furthermore, to reveal the reaction kinetics and guide the rational design of high performance anodes, the (spectro) electrochemical analysis methods and corresponding key parameters are introduced. Additionally, primary superiorities, essential issues, and supposed solutions of multiple active sites carbonaceous Na anodes are discussed and the future development directions are also proposed. This review may provide new design thoughts for high performance carbonaceous Na storage anodes.
