A sulfurization-based oligomeric sodium salt as a high-performance organic anode for sodium ion batteries†
Abstract
An attractive organic electrode material, oligomeric sodium salt, is prepared by polymerization of chloranilic acid through thioether bonds. It exhibits a superior sodium-storage performance with high specific capacity, good rate capability and excellent cyclability, benefitting from the conjugative effect of the benzene ring group and the intrinsic electrolyte-insoluble ability.
