Abstract

Abstract

(NH₄)₂V₄O₉ as cathode material for aqueous zinc ion batteries was prepared by a facile one-step hydrothermal method using NH₄VO₃ and C₂H₂O₄·2H₂O as raw materials. X-ray diffractometer (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), galvanostatic charge-discharge (GCD), galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT), cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were used to investigate the effects of hydrothermal reaction time (16, 20 h and 24 h) on the structure, morphology and electrochemical properties of (NH₄)₂V₄O₉. The results show that (NH₄)₂V₄O₉ synthesized by hydrothermal reaction for 20 h has the highest crystallinity, electrode reaction kinetics, and rate capability as well as cyclic stability, delivering high discharge specific capacities of 554.6, 472.2, 386.6, 322.6, 266.2 and 199.5 mAh/g at current densities of 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2 and 5 A/g, respectively. It can also maintain a discharge capacity of 159.7 mAh/g after 10 000 long-term cycles at a high current density of 5 A/g, showing a capacity retention of up to 80.1%.
