Prussian White Sodium-Ion Cathode Material 145mAh/g Specific Capacity D50 0.8μm
1. Applications
- Grid-Scale Storage: 4-hour discharge systems (cost <$100/kWh).
- EV Backup Power: Secondary battery systems for low-temperature operation.
- Consumer Electronics: Replacement for LiFePO₄ in low-cost devices.
2. Optimization Strategies
- Carbon Coating: Improves electronic conductivity (e.g., glucose-derived carbon layer).
- Vacuum Drying: Reduces lattice water to enhance cycling stability.
- Mn Substitution: NaₓFeMn[Fe(CN)₆] boosts voltage to 3.4 V (Mn²⁺/Mn³⁺ redox).
