Multifunctional Molecule-Grafted V₂C MXene as High-Kinetics Potassium-Ion-Intercalation Anodes for Dual-Ion Energy Storage Devices

Constructing dual-ion energy storage devices using anion-intercalation graphite cathodes offers the unique opportunity to simultaneously achieve high energy density and output power density. However, a critical challenge remains in the lack of proper anodes that match with graphite cathodes, particularly in sustainable electrolyte systems using abundant potassium. Here, a surface grafting approach utilizing multifunctional azobenzene sulfonic acid is reported, which transforms V2C MXene into a high-kinetics K+-intercalation anode (denoted ASA-V2C) for dual-ion energy storage devices. Importantly, the grafted azobenzene sulfonic acid offers extra K+-storage centers and fast K+-hopping sites, while concurrently acting as a buffer between V2C layers to mitigate the structural distortion during K+ intercalation/de-intercalation. These functionalities enable the V2C electrode with significantly enhanced specific capacity (173.9 mAh g−1 vs 121.5 mAh g−1 at 0.05 A g−1), rate capability (43.1% vs 12.0% at 20 A g−1), and cycling stability (80.3% vs 45.2% after 900 cycles at 0.05 A g−1). When coupled with an anion-intercalation graphite cathode, the ASA-V2C anode demonstrates its potential in a dual-ion energy storage device. Notably, the device depicts a maximum energy density of 175 Wh kg−1 and a supercapacitor-comparable power density of 6.5 kW kg−1, outperforming recently reported Li+-, Na+-, and K+-based dual-ion devices.
