摘要

Binders are essential for preserving electrode integrity throughout repeated cycling. Constructing a cross-linked network is a proven strategy to enhance binding affinity. In this work, we propose a novel binding strengthening strategy which exploits the strong interaction between Cu3P and sodium alginate (SA). A unique cross-linked structure after sodiation of Cu3P was in-situ formed, reinforcing electrode integrity and mitigates volume expansion. Consequently, the Cu3P/SA composite delivers a high reversible capacity of 207 mAh g−1 after 50 cycles at 0.2 A g−1. Notably, the electrode maintains considerable stability even when the Cu3P loading is increased to ~ 5 mg cm−2. This work presents a facile approach to achieving high-performance conversion anode materials for sodium-ion batteries.
