The main bottleneck against industrial utilization of sodium ion batteries(SIBs)is the lack of high-capacity electrodes to rival those of the benchmark lithium ion batteries(LIBs).Here in this work,we have developed an economical method for in situ fabrication of nanocomposites made of crystalline few-layer graphene sheets loaded with ultrafine SnO2 nanocrystals,using short exposure of microwave to xerogel of graphene oxide(GO)and tin tetrachloride containing minute catalyzing dispersoids of chemically reduced GO(RGO).The resultant nanocomposites(SnO2@MWG)enabled significantly quickened redox processes as SIB anode,which led to remarkable full anode-specific capacity reaching 538 mAh g-1 at 0.05 A g-1(about 1.45 times of the theoretical capacity of graphite for the LIB),in addition to outstanding rate performance over prolonged charge-discharge cycling.Anodes based on the optimized SnO2@MWG delivered stable performance over 2000 cycles even at a high current density of 5 A g-1,and capacity retention of over 70.4%was maintained at a high areal loading of 3.4 mg cm-2,highly desirable for high energy density SIBs to rival the current benchmark LIBs.
