An Overall Understanding of Sodium Storage Behaviors in Hard Carbons by an Adsorption-Intercalation/Filling Hybrid Mechanism

Xiaoyang Chen et al.

Summary: By studying the microstructure of hard carbon materials, it is found that sodium storage capacities in the low potential plateau region involve contributions from both interlayer intercalation and micropores filling, with the ratio depending on the microstructure. The dominance of interlayer intercalation and micropores filling processes in the low potential plateau region can be distinguished by the potential inflection point at the end of the discharge curve. A microstructure-dependent mechanism is proposed to explain the sodium storage behaviors in different hard carbon materials.
