Low-cost sodium-ion-based electrochemical energy storage devices have been gaining attention, and in this study, a new sodium ion pseudocapacitive material was developed with improved cycling stability and a wide voltage window.
Low-cost sodium-ion-based electrochemical energy storage devices, especially vanadium-based sodium-ion pseudocapacitors, are receiving increasing attention. However, the inevitable dissolution of vanadium in aqueous electrolytes usually leads to poor cycling stability and a narrow electrochemical stability window (ESW). In this study, we prepared layered (NH4)(2)V(10)O(25)middot8H(2)O with a hierarchical flower-like structure and an ultralarge layer spacing and evaluated its potential as a sodium ion pseudocapacitive material. Ex situ X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurement and kinetic analysis demonstrate the reversible intercalation and deintercalation of Na+ in (NH4)(2)V(10)O(25)middot8H(2)O in NaClO4 electrolytes. Significantly improved durability and a large voltage window of 3.2 V are achieved in the high concentration NaClO4 electrolyte. Inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) analysis and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations reveal that the dissolution of vanadium in the high-concentration NaClO4 electrolyte can be effectively suppressed. An asymmetric sodium-ion capacitor with a wide voltage window of 3.2 V was successfully assembled, and it delivered a high energy density of 53.1 Wh kg(-1) at a power density of 3.2 kW kg(-1).
