Potassium-enriched graphite for use as stable hybrid anodes in high-efficiency potassium batteries

Yu Lei et al.

Summary: Potassium-ion batteries (PIBs) have attracted attention due to their low cost and high energy density. However, graphite, as a promising anode candidate, still has limited capacity and low coulombic efficiency. In this study, a potassium-enriched graphite (KRG) anode is proposed, which overcomes the limitations of traditional graphite. KRG exhibits a robust mixed conducting network, uniform and efficient potassium metal plating/stripping, and a stable solid-electrolyte interphase. The KRG anode demonstrates high capacity and stability.
