Abstract
Due to its unique layered structure and high theoretical capacity, tin disulfide (SnS2) is regarded as a promising anode material for sodium-ion batteries. However, its practical application has been hindered by relatively poor conductivity and severe volumetric changes during cycling. Herein, carbon nanofiber encapsulated SnS2 nanoparticles, SnS2@CNF, has been synthesized via a gaseous sulfidation process from a Sn-based metal-organic compound (Sn-MOC)@PAN electrospun precursor. Benefiting from precise control of the SnS2 particle size, sodium-ion transport has been facilitated with superior sodium storage performance. The SnS2@CNF anode exhibits long-term cycling stability (457 mAh g−1 after 1500 cycles at 5 A g−1) and high reversible capacity (661 mAh g−1 after 100 cycles at 0.5 A g−1). When paired with the Na3V2(PO4)3 cathode, the SnS2@CNF//NVP presented an energy density of 161 Wh kg−1, indicating its significant potential for practical applications.
