Abstract

Due to a high operating voltage and theoretical capacity, P2-type layered Mn-based metal oxides are considered to be promising cathodes in sodium-ion batteries, but their poor structural stability in the process of Na + insertion/deinsertion severely hinders their practical application. Here, an interesting K + pre-intercalation is used to expand the interlayer distance and enhance the electrochemical reversibility of K s Fe x Al y Mn z O 2 . With a suitable K + content, the optimized electrode shows a high specific capacity of 135 mAh g −1 at 0.1 C, a good rate capability of 80 mAh g −1 at 5 C and an excellent cycling performance of 76.4% capacity retention after 200 cycles at a high rate of 5 C. This work proves the feasibility of a K + pre-intercalation strategy in a P2-type layered cathode.
