Abstract
Sodium-ion batteries are cost-effective rechargeable batteries which have attracted considerable interest in recent years due to the low cost and abundance of sodium resources on the earth. Na3MnCO3PO4 (NMCP) has been identified as a potential cathode material with a high theoretical capacity of 191 mAh g-1. In order to improve the conductivity and electrochemical properties of NMCP, fabrication of NMCP/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) composite is a novel and interesting research goal. Therefore, in the current study, rGO was produced by using modified Hummers method. Then, the kinetics of NMCP formation through hydrothermal process was investigated. Results indicate that the optimum...
