Rutile TiO2 microspheres anchored by nanoneedle clusters, as a new class of anode materials, are successfully employed for sodium-ion batteries and manifested good energy storage behavior. The initial discharge capacity of 308.8 mA h g−1 is obtained and a high reversible capacity of 121.8 mA h g−1 is maintained after 200 cycles at a current density of 0.1 C, exhibiting a high capacity retention of 83.1%. All these merits are not only ascribed to the rutile TiO2 crystal structure, but also thanks to the porous morphology of hundreds of nanoneedle clusters in favor of sodium diffusion and accommodating the strain during the sodiation and desodiation processes. Therefore, it is highly expected that rutile TiO2, as a feasible electrochemical sodium storage material, can be a new promising candidate as an anode for sodium-ion batteries.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
