Efficient Pathways to Improve Electrode Performance of P’2 Na2/3MnO2 for Sodium Batteries
Ugata Yosuke, Kuriyama Tomohiro, Yabuuchi Naoaki
Chemical Communications Early Access 2025
Language:English Publishing type:Research paper (scientific journal) Publisher:The Royal Society of Chemistry Joint Work
A Mn-based sodium-containing layered oxide, P'2-type Na2/3MnO2, is revisited as a positive electrode material for sodium-ion batteries, and factors affecting its electrochemical performances are examined. The cyclability of Na2/3MnO2 is remarkably improved by increasing the lower cut-off voltage during cycling even though the reversible capacity is sacrificed. Furthermore, the use of highly concentrated electrolytes, in which the presence of free solvent molecules is eliminated, effectively suppresses the dissolution of Mn ions, thus enabling stable cycling with >85% capacity retention for continuous 300 cycles.

Ni/Co-free high-energy positive electrode materials are of great importance to ensure the sustainability of Li-ion battery production and its supply chain in addition to minimizing environmental impact. Here, nanostructured LiMnO2 with both orthorhombic/monoclinic layered domains is synthesized, and its lithium storage properties and mechanism are examined. High-energy mechanical milling is used to convert the metastable and nanosized LiMnO2 adopting the cation-disordered rocksalt structure to an optimal domain-segregated layered LiMnO2. This positive electrode produces an energy density of 820 W h kg–1, achieved by harnessing a large reversible capacity with relatively small voltage hysteresis on electrochemical cycles. Moreover, voltage decay for cycling, as observed for Li-excess Mn-based electrode materials, is effectively mitigated. Furthermore, by determining the structure–property relationships of different LiMnO2 polymorphs, LiMnO2 with similar domain structure and surface area is successfully synthesized with an alternative and simpler method, without the metastable precursor and high-energy mechanical milling. The cyclability of domain-containing LiMnO2 is also improved with the use of a highly concentrated electrolyte coupled with a lithium phosphate coating due to the suppression of Mn dissolution. These findings maximize the possibility of the development of high-energy, low-cost, and practical rechargeable batteries made from sustainable and abundant Mn sources without Ni/Co.

Lithium-ion batteries are now successfully developed with higher energy densities than classical aqueous-based battery technologies and are used as power sources for electric vehicles and other electric storage applications. Sodium-ion batteries are another emerging battery technology, but their energy density is not high compared to that of their Li counterparts. Anionic redox reactions have attracted attention due to their potential to enhance the reversible capacity and operating voltage of positive electrode materials in Na/Li batteries. To understand the influence of Al substitution on the activation mechanism of anionic redox reactions in Na-/Li-containing Mn-based layered oxides, the P2-type Al-substituted Na2/3Al0.1Mn0.9O2 is designed to explore the difference in the anionic redox behavior. LiyAl0.1Mn0.9O2 is also prepared by electrochemical ion exchange, and the anionic redox behavior was compared for both samples. The Al-substituted Na2/3Al0.1Mn0.9O2 provides better cycling performance with partial activation of anionic redox, which is not observed for P′2-type Na2/3MnO2. Good reversibility for Na2/3Al0.1Mn0.9O2 and LiyAl0.1Mn0.9O2 with anionic redox is achieved, and this improvement originates from the nonexcessive use of anionic redox in electrode materials. This finding opens the possibility to develop high-energy sodium/lithium insertion materials with reversible anionic redox.
