Abstract

Abstract NASICON-structured sodium vanadium fluorophosphate has caused widespread concern for sodium energy conversion and storage because of its high voltage platform and high theoretical energy density. However, the inferior electrical conductivity is still a big problem, which greatly prevent the applications of Na3V2(PO4)2F3 material. Herein, the nitrogen-doped graphene-encapsulated Na3V2(PO4)2F3@C (NG-NVPF@C) has been prepared using the sol-gel approach. The physical and electrochemical performances for the resulted NG-NVPF@C composite have been systematically characterized and compared with that of Na3V2(PO4)2F3@C (NVPF@C) in this study. The electrochemical tests demonstrate that the as-fabricated NG-NVPF@C displays higher capacity, superior rate property and better cyclic life than NVPF@C. It displays the discharge capacity of 108.6 mAh g−1 at 5C. Moreover, it also possesses the high capacity of 101.6 mAh g−1 at 10C over 300 cycles with the capacity retention of about 96.5%. The improved properties of NG-NVPF@C electrode are assigned to the constructed conductive network by nitrogen-doped graphene, which can modify the conductivity of Na3V2(PO4)2F3.
