Pre-sodiated NVP cathode coupled with dry-coated AC anode for high-performance sodium ion capacitors
g electrode loading through dry coating is a promising strategy for improving the electrochemical performance of sodium-ion capacitors (SICs). However
when high-loading dry-processed activated carbon (AC) electrodes serve as anodes
the irreversible reaction of the polytetrafluoroethylene binder at low potentials causes considerable sodium loss. To address this issue
high-loading SICs were assembled in this work using a dry-processed AC anode paired with an electrochemically pre-sodiated sodium vanadium phosphate [Na

cathode. The sodium compensation mechanism of the pre-sodiated NVP cathode during charge/discharge cycling and its influence on the electrochemical performance of SICs were systematically investigated using X-ray diffraction
scanning electron microscopy
spherical aberration-corrected transmission electron microscopy
and galvanostatic charge/discharge measurements. The findings reveal that the NVP cathode displays an additional sodium storage plateau at 1.6 V (

/Na) during galvanostatic cycling
delivering a specific capacity of approximately 50 mAh/g. Electrochemical pre-sodiation effectively activates this plateau
thereby compensating for sodium loss while increasing the practical loading of the AC electrode. The SIC assembled with the pre-sodiated NVP cathode and an AC anode at a high loading of 10 mg/cm

delivered a maximum energy density of 165 Wh/kg and a maximum power density of 4.15 kW/kg
calculated based on the cathode active material mass. Moreover
the device exhibited excellent cycling stability
retaining 75% of its initial capacity after 20
000 cycles at a current rate of 50 C. The cathode pre-sodiation strategy proposed herein offers a viable pathway for advancing the development of high-performance SICs.
