MUMBAI, India, Feb. 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202541003561 A) filed by Manipal Academy Of Higher Education, Manipal, Karnataka, on Jan. 16, 2025, for 'a composition and method for mxene-based composite electrode for sodium-ion batteries.'
Inventor(s) include Nakul Desai; Sudhakar Y N; and Selvakumar M.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 13, under issue no. 07/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The current invention relates to a composite electrode based on MXene and a method for producing sodium-ion batteries. A Ti2C/Ni/NaI composite is created by etching Ti2AlC to acquire Ti2C MXene, coating it with nickel nanoparticles and doping it with sodium iodide to improve ion transport and redox reactivity. The composite is mixed with a PVDF binder and carbon black to create an electrode layer that is assembled into a coin cell with an appropriate electrolyte. The collaborative effect of Ti2C conductivity, Ni redox activity and NaI-facilitated interfacial ion transport greatly enhances Na? diffusion, reduces charge-transfer resistance and improves cycling stability. The invention offers a high-efficiency electrode designed to attain prolonged cycle life and enhanced energy density in sodium-ion batteries."
