Abstract
A new positive electrode material, Na2.85Mn0.4V1.6(PO4)2F2.4O0.6, is synthesized via a topochemical reaction in an ionic liquid medium, starting with a tailored precursor Mn0.2(VO)0.8PO4·2H2O. Its structural and chemical characterization was conducted using a comprehensive set of techniques including X-ray diffraction, X-ray absorption, and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopies, as well as inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy and electron probe microanalysis. These analyses not only allowed to determine the composition and structure but also shed light on the synthesis reaction mechanism. The resulting active material exhibits promising electrochemical performance, delivering a high capacity of 108 mA h/g at a rate of C/20 with an average potential of 3.75 V vs Na+/Na. Even at a higher rate of 1C, a specific capacity of 90 mA h/g is maintained and an excellent capacity retention of 94% is demonstrated after 200 cycles at C/5. In addition, XAS analysis conducted on materials recovered at different states of charge reveals the redox activity of both manganese and vanadium centers. More generally, this work showcases the feasibility of synthesizing stable Na-deficient polyanionic phases within the NazMnxV2–x(PO4)2F3–yOy (0 ≤ x, y ≤ 2, and z ≤ 3.6) material family.
期刊介绍:
The journal Chemistry of Materials focuses on publishing original research at the intersection of materials science and chemistry. The studies published in the journal involve chemistry as a prominent component and explore topics such as the design, synthesis, characterization, processing, understanding, and application of functional or potentially functional materials. The journal covers various areas of interest, including inorganic and organic solid-state chemistry, nanomaterials, biomaterials, thin films and polymers, and composite/hybrid materials. The journal particularly seeks papers that highlight the creation or development of innovative materials with novel optical, electrical, magnetic, catalytic, or mechanical properties. It is essential that manuscripts on these topics have a primary focus on the chemistry of materials and represent a significant advancement compared to prior research. Before external reviews are sought, submitted manuscripts undergo a review process by a minimum of two editors to ensure their appropriateness for the journal and the presence of sufficient evidence of a significant advance that will be of broad interest to the materials chemistry community.
