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. We also demonstrate a battery with the stibnite–graphene composite that is free from sodium metal, having energy density up to 80? Mason, Sudip K.
