In this study, the Na3V2(PO4)(3) (NVP) materials were optimized by the simultaneous K/Co co-substitution and Ti3C2Tx MXene (MX) introduction. The K/Co co-substitution stabilized the NVP framework and enhanced the electronic conductivity. The introduction of MXene formed a porous structure, increasing the contact areas and providing active sites for sodium-ion shuttling and buffering the volume change. The asymmetric full cell with Bi2Se3//KC05@MX electrode showed excellent electrochemical properties, indicating the promising practical application prospect of KC05@MX.
Na3V2(PO4)(3) (NVP) materials have emerged as prospective cathodes for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). However, its weak intrinsic conductivity has limited deeper research. Herein, we adopt the strategy of simultaneous K/Co co-substitution and Ti3C2Tx MXene (MX) introduction to optimize NVP. The K/Co co-substitution brings about the synergetic effect of NVP framework stabilization. Doping Co2+ generates beneficial holes and accelerating electronic conductivity. The MX plates are stacked at random to form a porous construction, increasing the contact areas to provide more active sites for Na+ shuttling and buffering the volume change. Furthermore, the lamellar MX and the carbon layers form efficient conductive networks that increase electron migration. Notably, K0.1Na2.95V1.95Co0.05(PO4)(3)@MX (KC05@MX) exhibited an initial capacity of 116 mA h g(-1) under 1 C with an extraordinary retention of 86.8% at the 400(th) cycle. It realized high performance under 20 C and 50 C, and the outputs were 93.5 and 82.4 mA h g(-1) at the 1(st) cycle and 66.6 and 53.4 mA h g(-1) at the 1000(th) cycle, respectively, with slight capacity loss at 0.028% and 0.035%. Furthermore, the Bi2Se3//KC05@MX asymmetric full cell expressed great electrochemical properties, indicating the superior practical application prospect of KC05@MX.
