Pillar[5]quinone–carbon nanocomposites as high-capacity cathodes for sodium-ion batteries

New organic cathodes to replace inorganic materials for the capacity enhancement of sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) are highly desirable. In this research, we described the investigation of pillar[5]quinone (P5Q), which we determined to have a theoretical capacity of 446 mAh g-1, a value that makes it a...
