Abstract

Abstract Here, the sodium storage mechanism in commercial grade hard carbon with a low surface area is comprehensively investigated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), the galvanostatic intermittent titration technique, and in situ Raman spectroscopy for fresh and cycled electrodes. The reversible shift of the carbon G‐band peak on Raman spectra and substantial change of the charge‐transfer resistance in the sloping region of the voltage profile indicates the intercalation of sodium ions into hard carbon, whereas the low‐voltage plateau is associated with the pore‐filling process. In situ Raman analysis at low frequencies reveals that the pore filling is progressed via formation of small sodium…
