Electrochemical performance of SnO–V2O5–SiO2 glass anode for Na-ion batteries

Abstract

Abstract SnO–V2O5–SiO2 glass anode sample prepared by simple a mechanical milling technique. The amorphous nature of sample identified using with XRD technique. This glass anode has an initial charge capacity of 560 mAhg−1 and discharge capacity of 483 mAhg−1. After 20 charge–discharge cycles, charge and discharge capacities achieved to be 389 and 379 mAhg−1 at 0.1C, respectively. The loss in discharge capacity is up to ~ 45.22% even at high rate 5C.
