Preparation of Prussian blue analogue materials and their application to potassium-ion batteries — •Ping Hong, Huaping Zhao, and Yong Lei — Fachgebiet Angewandte Nanophysik, Institut für Physik & IMN MacroNano, Technische Universität Ilmenau, 98693 Ilmenau, Germany

Prussian blue (PB) and its analogs (PBAs), with their unique open framework structure and chemical stability, have emerged as promising cathode materials for potassium-ion batteries (PIBs). PB and PBAs feature three-dimensional channels, facilitating rapid potassium-ion intercalation and de-intercalation, thus delivering excellent rate performance. Furthermore, its low-cost synthesis and environmentally friendly properties provide a strong foundation for potential commercial applications. Despite these advantages, the practical application of PBAs is hindered by challenges such as their high solubility in electrolytes and limited cycle stability and life. To overcome these limitations, we optimized synthesis techniques (by simple adjustment of the co-precipitation method) and structural design, leading to significant improvements in material performance. In addition, a series of adjustments were made to the binder, electrolyte, and voltage range used in the batteries. The improved PBA cathode exhibited remarkable cycling stability, showing almost no capacity decay after 500 cycles at a current density of 100 mA/g within the voltage range of 2.0-4.0 V. It maintained excellent cycling performance even under high current conditions, providing strong support for the advancement of high-performance PIBs.
