TiO2 nanorods grown on carbon fiber cloth as binder-free electrode for sodium-ion batteries and flexible sodium-ion capacitors

TiO2 nanorods grown on carbon fiber cloth as binder-free electrode for sodium-ion batteries and flexible sodium-ion capacitors
Na-ion batteries (NIBs) and Na-ion capacitors (NICs) have tremendous potential in many large-scale energy storage applications. Here, NIBs based on TiO2 nanorods/carbon fiber cloth (TiO2/CFC) flexible anode materials are introduced. The as-prepared flexible anode exhibited a notable rate performance and high specific capacity of 148.7 mAh g−1 after 2000 cycles at 1 A g−1. Furthermore, we demonstrate a highly flexible NIC system employing the TiO2/CFC anode and carbon fibers (CFs) as the cathode material. The flexible TiO2/CFC//CFs NIC device achieved a high energy density of 73.8 Wh kg−1 and high power density of 13,750 W kg−1, as well as long-term cycling stability over 4000 cycles with a capacity retention of ∼90%.
