NOVEL SODIUM-ION CONDUCTORS AS SOLID ELECTROLYTES FOR SODIUM BATTERIES

Abstract

The research in this proposal aims to exploit and develop novel glassy sodium-ion conductors with well-tailored chemical structures and compositions through a scalable and cost-effective low-temperature synthesis methodology based upon sulfide chemistries, in contrast to conventional methods suffered from high-temperature reactions. The goal of this research is therefore grounded in the investigation of entirely new synthesis phenomena in the proposed novel materials system. The emergence of the proposed glassy sodium-ion conductors has the potential to replace the conventional flammable organic liquid electrolyte and thus opens new avenues to the development of the next generation solid-state sodium batteries that are low cost and extremely safe and reliable for diverse and extreme U.S. Air Force applications
