Researchers led by the Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) have extended the capacity and duration of sodium-aluminum batteries. The new sodium-based molten salt battery uses two distinct reactions. The team previously reported a neutral molten salt reaction. of peak charge capacity.

Stanford researchers have developed a sodium-ion battery (SIB) that can store the same amount of energy as a state-of-the-art lithium ion, at substantially lower cost. Thus, further research is required to find better sodium host materials. The sodium salt makes up the cathode; the anode is made up of phosphorous.

E-bike powered by Faradion prototype Na-ion battery pack. For the proof-of-concept, the cells were manufactured to be larger than necessary to avoid unnecessary costs and lengthy manufacturing processes at this early stage.

The data for 10 nm Sn (tin) NCs are shown for comparison. One molar LiPF6 in ethylene carbonate/dimethyl carbonate mixture containing 3 wt % of FEC was used as electrolyte for Li-ion cells, whereas 1 M NaClO 4 in propylene carbonate containing 10 wt % of FEC was used for Na-ion batteries. All batteries were cycled in the 20 mV to 1.5

Researchers from UNSW Sydney (Australia) report in an open-access paper in the Journal of Power Sources on the use of hard carbons derived from automotive shredder residue (ASR) as a suitable anode electroactive material for sodium-ion batteries (NIBs). The situation is much worse for graphite. Sarkar et al. 2023.233577
