Synergistic hybrid interface for ultra-stable sodium metal anode via spontaneous conversion of tin fluoride in polymer matrix enabling 10× longer lifetime

In this work, we developed a hybrid polymer–inorganic interphase that integrates the flexibility of NaF- and Na–Sn-rich protective layer on the sodium surface. This hybrid interphase provides strong interfacial adhesion,...
