Summary: | In this study, the electrochemical performance of sodium titanate nanorods for sodium-ion battery anode applications was analyzed. Sodium titanate has been successfully prepared from the titanium (IV) Isopropoxide (TTIP) and sodium chloride (NaCl) precursor assisted by organic templates (ethylene glycol and citric acid) through a simple and hydrothermal template method, sodium titanate has been used to function in sodium-ion battery anodes. Manufacture of sodium titanate which is more environmentally friendly without the use of peroxides. Sodium titanate was initially prepared by mixing a solution of sodium precursor with a solution of titanium precursor at a stoichiometric mole ratio of 1.6: 1. Then, it was preheated through the hydrothermal method at 150°C for 6 hours, then calcined at 800°C for 1 hour in two burning situations which are different, namely reduction and oxidation. The same process is carried out in the synthesis of other samples without preheating treatment. Performance tests were carried out on sodium-ion batteries with calcined sodium titanate as the base ingredient. Preheating and combustion treatments in a reduced atmosphere are the optimum conditions for the formation of sodium titanate which produces sodium titanate type Na2Ti6O13. Galvanostatic charge/discharge performance produces a capacity of 43 mAh after 10 cycles. |
