Abstract

Carbonyl small molecule compounds hold great potential as cathode materials for alkali-ion batteries (AIBs) due to their environmental friendliness, structural designability, and high theoretical capacity. However, it's practical application is hindered by intrinsic drawbacks, such as low electrical conductivity and high solubility in organic electrolytes. Additionally, most carbonyl small molecule cathodes can't be charged first in half-cells due to the absence of detachable Li⁺/Na⁺/K⁺ ions, diminishing their appeal when assembled into full cells with alkali-free anodes. This review provides a detailed overview of carbonyl-contained small molecule cathode materials centered around oxygen, including their charge storage mechanisms, solutions to overcome their drawbacks, and the latest research advancements in AIBs. This review also summarizes the electrochemical performance of carbonyl small molecules as cathodes that have been assembled in batteries. Finally, the review outlines the prospects and directions for future research on carbonyl small molecule cathodes. It is hoped that this review will offer meaningful guidance for the development of carbonyl small-molecule cathode materials in AIBs.

期刊介绍： Progress in Natural Science: Materials International provides scientists and engineers throughout the world with a central vehicle for the exchange and dissemination of basic theoretical studies and applied research of advanced materials. The emphasis is placed on original research, both analytical and experimental, which is of permanent interest to engineers and scientists, covering all aspects of new materials and technologies, such as, energy and environmental materials; advanced structural materials; advanced transportation materials, functional and electronic materials; nano-scale and amorphous materials; health and biological materials; materials modeling and simulation; materials characterization; and so on. The latest research achievements and innovative papers in basic theoretical studies and applied research of material science will be carefully selected and promptly reported. Thus, the aim of this Journal is to serve the global materials science and technology community with the latest research findings. As a service to readers, an international bibliography of recent publications in advanced materials is published bimonthly.
