Sodium-ion batteries have long been touted as a possible successor to the lithium-ion kind—they may have lower energy density, but they rely on more abundant sodium rather than lithium, perform better in cold temperatures, and above all, tend to be cheaper. The model’s sodium battery version has a smaller battery pack (21.4

Building on earlier work, researchers in China have fabricated a hierarchical metal-organic nanocomposite for use as a cathode in sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). Moreover, the transition metal ions participate in the electrochemical reaction at high potentials that is helpful to raise the battery voltage. —Huang et al.

A team of researchers from China and Germany have used azulene—a benzene-free and vinyl-free molecule—to polymerize with sulfur to create a cathode material for Li-S batteries. Hence, it is urgent to develop new organosulfur polymers with high sulfur content as candidates for Li-S batteries. Chen et al.
