In this context, due to the plentiful availability of potassium resources, potassium-ion batteries (KIBs) have gained attention in recent years. By performing DFT estimations, the current work computationally examined the capacity of irida-like boron nitride allotrope (ID-BN), characterized by its metallicity and a structure composed of three-, six-, and eight-membered C rings, for potassium storage. The maximum potassium capacity of ID-BN was found to be 26 atoms, corresponding to a ratio of 1 potassium atom, with adhesion energies ranging from −1.033 eV for a single potassium atom to −0.189 eV for 26 potassium atoms, indicating robust electrochemical stableness. An analysis of potassium mobility revealed a high diffusion rate of 1.94 × 10<sup>−9</sup> cm<sup>2</sup>/s at 300 K, accompanied by a minimal diffusion barrier of 0.158 eV. The operating OCV ranged from 0.189 to 0.732 V, making it suitable for safe applications in batteries. Ultimately, the potassium storage capacity was measured at 1157.5 mAhg<sup>−1</sup>, exceeding that of numerous commercial anodic nanomaterials and is competitive with other structural alternatives. These findings underscore the potential of Ir-BN as an encouraging and safe anodic nanomaterial for KIBs.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11266,"journal":{"name":"Diamond and Related Materials","volume":"154 ","pages":"Article 112223"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143680785","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, SnO<sub>2</sub> anodes face challenges including aggregation, low conductivity, and significant volume changes during cycling, which lead to powdering of active ingredients and breaking of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI), ultimately impairing energy transfer and cycling stability. Carbon materials offer several advantages in this context, such as amorphous structures, large interlayer distances, high electrical conductivity, and excellent ion transport abilities. In addition, carbon can function as a buffer within the electrodes, suppressing volume fluctuations and preventing structural distortions (pulverization/agglomeration) caused by the volume change. They also alleviate side reactions at the interface by precluding direct contact between the active material and the electrolyte, thereby enhancing the electrochemical performance of batteries. A simple and rapid method was introduced to synthesize high-performance polyacrylonitrile-based, binder-free N-doped carbon-coated SnO<sub>2</sub>/porous carbon nanofibers (PCNFs) using centrifugal spinning and polypyrrole (PPy)-based amorphous carbon coating and these were then used as anodes in lithium-ion and sodium-ion batteries for the first time.

The 3D CNF matrix effectively buffered the volume changes and enhanced structural stability by suppressing particle aggregation during the charge/discharge process.
