Nitrogen doped carbon is a burgeoning anode candidate for potassium-ion battery(PIBs)owing to its outstanding attributes.It is imperative to grasp further insight into specific effects of different nitrogen dopants in carbon anode toward advanced K-ion storage.However,the prevailing fabrication method is plagued by the fact that considerable variations in the total N-doping concentration occur in the course of regulating the type of nitrogen dopants,incapable of distinguishing the certain roles of them under similar conditions.Herein,throughout the precise preparation of high edge-N doped carbon(HENC)and high graphitic-N doped carbon(HGNC)harnessing basically identical N-doping levels(5.78 at.%for HENC;5.07 at.%for HGNC)via chemical vapor deposition route,the effects of edge-N and graphitic-N in the carbon anode on K-ion storage are revisited,offering guidance into the design of low-cost and high-performance PIB systems.

carbon anodes are an essential part of the primary aluminum production. They are made of coal tar pitch, calcined petroleum coke, recycled anodes and butts. As pitch acts as a binder for the anode, its proper distribution in a green anode has a great impact on the properties of the baked anode. Information on cracks in anodes is important for the quality of the baked anode. There is presently no reliable method available to analyze and quantify the amount of coke, pitch and pores/cracks in a green anode sample. In this article, an image analysis technique has been described, that can analyze as well as quantify the area percentage of pores/cracks and weight percentages of pitch and coke. The novelty of the method is its capacity to differentiate the different components of anode.
