In this study, ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC) was prepared via nano-casting method by using Santa Barbara Amorphous (SBA)-15 as a template and sucrose as a carbon precursor. The OMC was subsequently oxidized with aqueous nitric acid and referred as MOMC. The physicochemical properties of OMC and MOMC were determined using nitrogen adsorption–desorption analyser, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The results proved that the carbon replication process was successful. The electrochemical performance tests were carried out using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and galvanostatic charge–discharge (GCD) in 1 M KOH electrolyte for 1000 cycles. After oxidative treatment, the specific surface area and pore volume of OMC decreased but the specific capacitance of the electrode material has significantly increased from 117      F g–1 to 344 F g–1 at a scan rate of 10 mV s–1.

Ion Storage

Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) are promising alternatives to lithium-based energy storage devices for large-scale applications, but conventional lithium-ion battery anode materials do not provide adequate reversible Na-ion storage. In contrast, conversion-based transition metal sulfides have high theoretical capacities and are suitable anode materials for SIBs. Iron sulfide (FeS) is environmentally benign and inexpensive but suffers from low conductivity and sluggish Na-ion diffusion kinetics. In addition, significant volume changes during the sodiation of FeS destroy the electrode structure and shorten the cycle life. Herein, we report the rational design of the FeS/carbon composite, specifically FeS encapsulated within a hierarchically ordered mesoporous carbon prepared via nanocasting using a SBA-15 template with stable cycle life. We evaluated the Na-ion storage properties and found that the parallel 2D mesoporous channels in the resultant FeS/carbon composite enhanced the conductivity, buffered the volume changes, and prevented unwanted side reactions. Further, high-rate Na-ion storage (363.4 mAh g−1 after 500 cycles at 2 A g−1, 132.5 mAh g−1 at 20 A g−1) was achieved, better than that of the bare FeS electrode, indicating the benefit of structural confinement for rapid ion transfer, and demonstrating the excellent electrochemical performance of this anode material at high rates.
