Solid-state sodium-ion batteries are safer than conventional lithium-ion batteries, which pose a risk of fire and explosions, but their performance has been too weak to offset the safety advantages. Now that sufficiently conductive solid electrolytes are available, a remaining challenge has been the solid interfaces.

It is one of the most promising anodes for lithium-ion (LIB) and sodium-ion (NIB) batteries due to its high theoretical capacity 3590 mAh/g for Li 15 Si 4 and 954 mAh/g for NaSi. For lithium (Li), the access to such high lithiated phases causes extreme volume expansion (310%), resulting in a rapid capacity fade.
