Abstract
This study explores the improvement of sodium-ion batteries by presodiating hard carbon anodes, with the goal of reducing initial capacity loss and enhancing the overall electrochemical performance of full cells. Using Na-biphenyl for presodiation and exploring its effects under various conditions—such as electrolyte composition and electrode loading—alongside two different cathode configurations (Na-stoichiometry Na3V2(PO4)3 and Na-deficient Na0.44MnO2), we seek to elevate the overall electrochemical performance of sodium-ion batteries. Our findings reveal the significance of finely tuning presodiation conditions leading to significant improvements in both initial Coulombic Efficiency and the cycling stability of full cells. Furthermore, a comparative analysis of the solid electrolyte interface formed through both chemical and electrochemical presodiation methods reveals significant similarities in impedance characteristics. This research provides valuable insights into the impact of presodiation on hard carbon anodes, offering a pathway to enhance the practical application of presodiation technology for sodium-ion batteries.
