Yissum offering novel high-performance anode for sodium-ion batteries; antimony sulphide nanoparticle-coated graphene

Green Car Congress

Sodium-ion batteries (Na-ion, NIBs) are seen as an alternative to lithium-ion batteries for large-scale applications due to their lower cost and abundant supply of sodium. Prikhodchenko, Chad W. However, low capacity and poor rate capability of existing anodes have been major obstacles to the commercialization of NIBs. Yu, Petr V.
