Abstract

An exfoliated MoS₂-C composite (E-MoS₂-C) was prepared via simple chemical exfoliation and a hydrothermal method. The obtained E-MoS₂-C was tested as an anode material for sodium ion batteries. High capacity (approx. 400 mA h g^-1) at 0.25 C (100 mA g^-1) was maintained over prolonged cycling life (100 cycles). Outstanding rate capability was also achieved with a capacity of 290 mA h g^-1 at 5 C.
