| Abstract: | Porous hard carbon with good cycling durability attracts much attention in the application of sodium ions batteries as anode material, but the commonly used alkali metal ion-activation strategy with complex processes still renders its development. Herein, a simple and scalable method is proposed to synthesize hierarchical porous hard carbon. Benefitting from the efficient self-activation strategy, the hierarchical micro–mesoporous hard carbon (MMHC) with large interlayer distance possesses high specific surface area of 704.1 m2 g−1, which can provide shorter ionic diffusion path and much more accessible electrochemical active sites in the carbonaceous structure and then lead to fast sodium ion diffusivity kinetics (3.5 × 10–9 cm2 s−1). In consequence, MMHC electrode delivers high specific capacity of 214.3 mAh g−1 at 50 mA g−1, 118.3 mAh g−1 at 500 mA g−1 after 1000 cycles and 47.4 mAh g−1 even at 4000 mA g−1. Notably, the capacity contribution ratio from low-voltage range is enhanced with engineering micro–mesoporous structure (from 28.5% for HC to 37.7% for MMHC). Promisingly, the hierarchical micro–mesoporous hard carbon holds great potential in commercial sodium ions batteries. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
