Abstract

Sodium trititanate, Na2Ti3O7, is of interest as a negative electrode material for designing high-power and safe sodium-ion batteries due to the suitable potential of electrochemical sodium intercalation. Nevertheless, Na2Ti3O7 requires qualitative modification to improve its conductive properties, for example, doping with other elements or morphology optimization. Within the scope of this work, sodium trititanate doped with copper in various quantities, consisting of "microflowers" formed by nanotubes and nanosheets, was prepared via a one-stage hydrothermal treatment of titanium and copper salts in 10M sodium hydroxide solution. It was found that, in comparison with the undoped sample, the Cu-doped Na2Ti3O7 shows a narrowed band gap (by 1.1 eV) and increased electronic conductivity (by 2.5 times). The electrochemical insertion and extraction of Na+ ions into copper-doped sodium trititanate were investigated. It was found that the specific capacity of doped Na2Ti3O7 at high current densities of 3C and 4C is 2.0–2.5 times higher as compared to the undoped sample. At low current densities (up to 0.5C), undoped and copper-doped Na2Ti3O7 samples have similar electrochemical performance. The kinetics of charge carriers in electrodes based on such materials in (de-)sodiation processes has been studied. It was shown that Cu-doped Na2Ti3O7 possesses a lower charge transfer resistance and higher Na+ diffusion coefficient. This promotes a decrease in the polarization of the electrode during charge and discharge processes, providing increased specific capacity at high current loads.
