Stable-Cycling Sustainable Na-Ion Batteries with Olivine Iron Phosphate Cathode in an Ether Electrolyte
Bibliographic record
Abstract
High Resolution Image Download MS PowerPoint Slide Sustainable batteries using nontoxic, earth-abundant, and low-cost materials are key to decarbonization. Olivine NaFePO 4 fulfills these criteria, is attractive for Na-ion batteries, and can be derived from LiFePO 4 recycled from Li-ion battery wastes. Critical knowledge is needed for transforming LiFePO 4 to NaFePO 4 to enable such a sustainable, green engineering path toward high-performance Na-ion batteries. Herein, we report on the development of a stable-cycling, sustainable olivine iron phosphate-based Na-ion battery empowered by an improved understanding of materials transformation and electrolyte chemistry. First, we found that the conventional carbonate electrolyte with fluoroethylene carbonate additive causes an additional plateau (∼2.4 V) at the end of the discharge process of the FePO 4 ||Na metal cell, leading to lower initial discharge capacity and voltage. This result shows that the voltage profile is influenced by not only intrinsic materials phase transformation during battery cycling but also the electrolyte additives and interphases formed. With the 1 M NaPF 6 diglyme electrolyte, we achieved an excellent capacity retention of 96% and 98% after 500 cycles at 1 and 5 C, respectively. Second, we chemically sodiated FePO 4 to form single-phase Na 0.9 FePO 4 . Na 0.9 FePO 4 ||hard carbon full cells demonstrated a remarkable capacity retention of ∼84% at 3 and 5 C after 1000 cycles. The successful implementation of hard carbon, which can be derived from biomass waste, will further improve the sustainability of energy storage technologies. Our research demonstrates that electrolyte chemistry influences the voltage profile of phase-changing electrodes and provides effective electrolyte and full-cell design solutions for stable-cycling NaFePO 4 .

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
