NASICON-type (Na 3 Zr 2 Si 2 PO 12 ) electrolytes are regarded as one of the most promising solid-state sodium-ion electrolytes due to their exceptional air stability and extensive electrochemical stability window. Nevertheless, the ionic conductivity still requires further enhancement in comparison to that of a conventional liquid electrolyte. This study presents a strategy to enhance the performance of NASICON electrolytes via ScF 3 substitution. Through the optimization of substitution concentration, a rhombohedral phase NASICON that maintains stability at room temperature was synthesized successfully, attaining an ionic conductivity of 2.1 × 10 –3 S cm –1 . The NVP|NZSP-0.5ScF 3 |Na battery, which added 10 μL of liquid electrolyte to wet the NVP/NZSP-0.5ScF 3 interface, achieved a capacity retention of 88.21% (89.74 mA h g –1 ) after 5000 cycles at the 5C rate. Even at a 20C discharge rate, the battery sustained 88.78% of its capacity (88.32 mA h g –1 ) after 3500 cycles, demonstrating remarkable cycling performance. This work provides a promising approach for the application of solid-state sodium batteries and advances high-performance energy storage technologies.
