An ether-based electrolyte was used to reduce polarization and improve the plateau capacity at high rates of loofah sponge-derived hard carbon as the anode material for sodium ion batteries for the first time. The optimization of electrolytes could promote the practical application of hard carbon to sodium ion batteries.

As a kind of common bio-waste, willow catkin is of no economic value. But it is surprising that it can be an ideal carbonaceous source and bio-template for electrode materials of lithium-ion batteries and supercapacitors. Herein, we demonstrate that microtubular hard carbon can be derived from willow catkins and used as an anode of sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). The sample obtained from carbonization at 1000 °C delivers a high reversible capacity of 210 mAh g−1, good rate capability, and excellent cycling stability (112 mAh g−1 at 1000 mA g−1 after 1600 cycles) due to its unique tubular structure and the N-doping characteristic. The present work affords a new candidate for the production of hard carbon materials with tubular microstructure using natural biomass, and develops a highly promising anode material for SIBs.
