Abstract
AbstractDeveloping multicomponent composite materials with delicate morphology and tailored structure is of vital importance for designing advanced sodium‐ion batteries (SIBs). Herein, a confinement‐structured Fe2Mo3O8@C@MoS2 with local‐expanded interlayer spacing is designed via high‐temperature phase transition from FeMoO4 to Fe2Mo3O8 and the tactically introducing dopamine molecules into the interlayer of MoS2 nanosheets. By analysis of the in situ generated solid electrolyte interphase film in different electrolytes, the favorable compatibility of Fe2Mo3O8@C@MoS2 in ether‐based electrolytes is well illustrated. Importantly, the sodium storage mechanism and detailed structural evolution of Fe2Mo3O8 are established for the first time by in situ X‐ray diffraction. Furthermore, theoretical calculations indicate the unique structure facilitates internal charge transfer and enhances Na+ adsorption ability. Thanks to the unique confinement structure, local‐expanded interlayers and robust framework, the Fe2Mo3O8@C@MoS2 composite achieves a high reversible specific capacity of 636 mAh g‒1 at 0.1 A g‒1, excellent rate capability (301 mAh g‒1 at 5.0 A g‒1) and ultralong cycling stability (365 mAh g–1 after 6000 cycles at 2.0 A g–1). The study provides an essential understanding of the Na storage mechanism of Fe2Mo3O8 and a promising strategy for constructing high‐performance anodes for SIBs.
