Ningbo researchers propose mixed-ion Li/Na batteries

Green Car Congress

Lithium-intercalation compounds and sodium-intercalation compounds are used for anode and cathode, respectively. Sodium-ion based rechargeable batteries (SIBs, e.g., earlier post ) are of interest due to sodium’s abundance, far lower prices, and a greener synthesis while maintaining a similarity in ion-insertion chemistry.
