Abstract

In this study, synthesis of TiS2 nanoflakes is reported using a home-made CVD furnace. With vaporing sulfur powder in this system, TiS2 nanosheets were grown directly on the Ti powder. The application of these nanoflakes as a possible cathode material for sodium-ion battery has also been investigated. The prepared nanosheets were formed in highly packed clusters with a typical width of around 30 nm and height of 2 µm. The interlayer space between the nanoflakes can provide facile access path for intercalation of sodium ions. The synthesized TiS2 nanoflakes have been implemented for the fabrication of sodium-ion battery cathode electrode, using a 8:1:1 weight ratio of active material:C65: PVDF for slurry preparation, followed by coating on an aluminum current collector. The prepared electrode exhibits an initial reversible capacity (2nd cycle) of 114 mAh g−1 at current density of 66.7 mAg−1. It also showed remarkable coulombic efficiency of 99% after 100 cycles. It also showed superb cycling stability by only 7% decay after 100 cycles. These nanosheets are proposed as a high-performance cathode material for sodium-ion battery.
