Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this research project is to create a highly amorphized material using soft chemistry method and develop new electrode material group for Na-ion battery. We synthesized highly amorphous Si and Ge oxide powders by soft chemistry method. However, only the amorphous Ge oxide powder showed the electrochemical performance for the Na-ion battery. In the soft chemical synthesis, fine particles of several microns was observed by using 2-propanol, a secondary alcohol, as the alcohol species for oxidizing Zintle phase NaM. Using an ether solvent for the Na-ion battery electrolyte solution, the electrochemical performances of the amorphous Ge oxide material were greatly improved.
