Performance of nanocrystalline Ni3N as a negative electrode for sodium-ion batteries
Nickel nitride is synthesised by high temperature ammonolysis of nickel(II) hexamine and tris(ethylenediamine) salts. Its electrochemical characteristics are examined in half-cells vs. lithium and sodium. Samples with high surface area are found to have significant reversible charge storage capacity...

| Summary: | Nickel nitride is synthesised by high temperature ammonolysis of nickel(II) hexamine and tris(ethylenediamine) salts. Its electrochemical characteristics are examined in half-cells vs. lithium and sodium. Samples with high surface area are found to have significant reversible charge storage capacity in sodium cells and hence to be a promising negative electrode material for sodium-ion batteries. |
