Abstract
- In this paper, we report an improved solid-state synthesis of Na<subscript>3</subscript>V<subscript>2</subscript>(PO<subscript>4</subscript>)<subscript>3</subscript> isostructural with the NASICON superionic conductor and ranging in particle size from 0.5 to 4.5 μm with the use of spray drying of an aqueous solution of precursors, followed by annealing in a nitrogen atmosphere. The specific capacity of a composite of the synthesized Na<subscript>3</subscript>V<subscript>2</subscript>(PO<subscript>4</subscript>)<subscript>3</subscript> and expanded graphite reaches 117.00 mAh/g at a charge–discharge rate of C/20 and drops to 76.73 mAh/g after 200 cycles in charge–discharge life tests at a charge–discharge rate of 1C. The apparent diffusion coefficient of sodium ions in the solid phase of the Na<subscript>3</subscript>V<subscript>2</subscript>(PO<subscript>4</subscript>)<subscript>3</subscript>/C composite for deintercalation and intercalation processes is 5.87 × 10<superscript>–11</superscript> and 4.60 × 10<superscript>–11</superscript> cm<superscript>2</superscript>/s, respectively.
