MoS₂-Coupled Carbon Nanosheets Encapsulated on Sodium Titanate Nanowires as Super-Durable Anode Material for Sodium-Ion Batteries.

ABSTRACT: There is an ever-increasing demand for rechargeable batteries with fast charging, long cycling, high safety, and low cost in new energy storage systems. Herein, a heterogeneous architecture composed of MoS₂-coupled carbon nanosheets encapsulated on sodium titanate nanowires is developed and demonstrated as an advanced anode for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). Owing to the synergistic effects of ultrastable substrate of 1D sodium titanate (NTO) nanowires, high-capacity promoter of 2D MoS₂ nanosheets as well as the 2D conductive carbon matrix, the resulting 1D/2D-2D hybrid demonstrates excellent high-rate capacity and super-durable cyclability, delivering a stable capacity of up to 425.5 mAh g^-1 at 200 mA g^-1. Even at an ultrafast charging/discharging
