The O3-type lithium transition metal oxides, LiMeO 2, have been intensively studied as positive electrode materials for lithium batteries, and O3-LiCoO 2, 10 Li [Ni 0.8 Co 0.15 Al 0.05 ]O 2, 26, 27 and Li [Ni 1/3 Mn 1/3 Co 1/3] O 2 28, 29 are often utilized for practical Li-ion batteries.
On the basis of material abundance and its similarity as an alkali metal ion, rechargeable sodium batteries (i.e., Na-ion batteries) are believed to be the ideal alternative to Li-ion batteries. In this article, we review advances in layered sodium transition metal oxides as positive electrode materials for batteries.
The data were collected from Web of Science with the keyword “Sodium ion battery” (until January 2018) Sodium-ion batteries operate on an intercalation mechanism, which is similar to lithium-ion batteries . A sodium-ion battery consists of a positive and a negative electrode separated by the electrolyte.
The quality of utilizable battery materials and apparatuses such as electrolyte solution, binders, separators, and glove box was insufficient for sodium batteries at that time, which resulted in difficulty in observing potential electrode performance in aprotic Na metal cells.
Rechargeable sodium-ion batteries consist of two different sodium insertion materials similar to Li-ion batteries. Sodium insertion materials, especially layered oxides, have been studied since the early 1980s, but not extensively for energy storage devices due to the expanded interest in lithium insertion materials in the 1990s.
