Abstract

A polymer network from a cross-linking chemistry between chitosan and glutaraldehyde is designed for a high performance antimony anode in sodium-ion batteries. The polymer network can mitigate efficiently the volume change of antimony anode upon sodiation/desodiation, leading to excellent cycling stability and high Coulombic efficiency.
