Sodium ion Battery

(NIBs)

Introduction
 The first successful attempt of sodium battery in 1967 by the company Ford Motor (USA) carried out
in sodium sulfur battery.
 A sodium ion battery is a type of rechargeable battery that uses sodium ions to as a charge carrier.
 Compared to other types of batteries, sodium ion batteries are relatively young then to other type of
batteries.
 Battery-grade sodium salts are cheap and plentiful, a lot More than lithium salts.
 These factors: price, abundance and size make sodium ion batteries for Large-scale network storage
applications are interesting.
Why Na?
Characteristics of sodium-ion batteries
Compression
NIBs currently offer characteristics
well suited to applications where
cost, sustainability, power density,
temperature range and safety,
rather than energy density, are of
critical importance (Figure)
Principle
SIBs cells consist of a cathode based on a sodium-based material, an anode (not
necessarily a sodium-based material) and a liquid electrolyte containing
dissociated sodium salts in polar protic or aprotic solvents. During charging,
sodium ions move from the cathode to the anode while electrons travel through
the external circuit. During discharge, the reverse process occurs.

Conclusion
A Sodium-Ion (Na-Ion) Battery System is an energy
storage system based on electrochemical
charge/discharge reactions that occur between a
positive electrode (cathode) composed of sodium-
containing layered materials, and a negative electrode
(anode) that is typically made of hard carbons or
intercalation compounds. The electrodes are
separated by some porous material which allow ionic
flow between them and are immersed in an electrolyte
that can be made up of either aqueous solution (such
as Na2SO4 solution) or non-aqueous solution (e.g.
salts in propylene carbonate). When the battery is
being charged, Na atoms in the cathode release
electrons to the external circuit and become ions
which migrate through the electrolyte toward the
anode, where they combine with electrons from the
external circuit while reacting with the layered anode
material. This process is reversed during discharge
