The origin of unstable sodium graphite intercalation compoundsOlena Lenchuk and •Doreen Mollenhauer — Institute of Physical Chemistry, Justus-Liebig University Giessen, Heinrich-Buff-Ring 17, D-35392 Giessen, Germany

First principles investigations can contribute to the understanding of intercalation mechanisms and compounds chemistry important for supporting the development of battery materials such as sodium-ion batteries (SIBs).[1] The commonly used negative electrode graphite for lithium-ion batteries does not intercalate sodium ions in high concentrations [2,3] whereas intercalation of potassium is possible. In order to understand the origin of Na-GICs (binary graphite intercalation compounds) instability compared to stable Li- and K-GIC we performed dispersion corrected density-functional theory (DFT) calculations. We analyzed and compared in detail the interplay between the structural deformation and binding contributions of the different alkali metal-GIC. This allows us to identify main factors for the instability of Na-GICs [4].
