Abstract

Abstract

A series of Na₃V₂(PO₄)₃/C anode materials were synthesized by sol-gel method, using the intermediate products ammonium polyvanadate (APV, NH₄V₃O₈) prepared by different vanadium extraction processes and high-purity vanadium pentoxide as vanadium sources, and Na₂CO₃, NH₄H₂PO₄, and citric acid as sodium, phosphorus, and carbon sources, respectively. The effects of different vanadium sources on Na₃V₂(PO₄)₃/C anode materials were investigated in detail through XRD, SEM, battery testing system and electrochemical workstation. The results show that the Na₃V₂(PO₄)₃/C (NaH-NVP) cathode materials prepared by ammonium polyvanadate from sodium method for vanadium extraction as the vanadium source present superior high-rate performance, i.e., reversible capacities of 98 mAh/g and 64 mAh/g at 5C and 10C, respectively. The research has expanded the selection of vanadium sources for synthesizing sodium vanadium phosphate materials, which has a positive significance in reducing the preparation cost of sodium vanadium phosphate.
