Initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE) has been widely adopted in battery research as a
quantifiable indicator for the lifespan, energy density and rate performance of batteries. Hard …

The commercialization of sodium-ion batteries has been hampered by the anode's
performance. Carbon-based anodes have always had great application prospects, but …

Hard carbons show considerable potential as anode materials in emerging sodium-ion
battery technologies. Recent work suggests sodiation of hard carbon proceeds by insertion …

The anode/electrolyte interface behavior, and by extension, the overall cell performance of
sodium‐ion batteries is determined by a complex interaction of processes that occur at all …

S do** is a powerful tool to boost the sodium storage performance of hard carbons.
However, develo** efficient, sustainable do** strategies is still a challenge. Herein we …

The performance of sodium-ion batteries largely depends on the presence and properties of
passive films formed on the electrode/electrolyte interfaces. Passive films on negative …

Hard carbon (HC) anodes together with ethylene carbonate (EC)‐based electrolytes have
shown significant promise for high‐performing sodium‐ion batteries. However, questions …
