Nb₂O₅ has received high attention as a potential anode material for high-rate sodium ion batteries, whereas the amorphous α-Nb₂O₅ is considered as one of the better performance among various crystalline forms of Nb₂O₅. In spite of a high theoretical capacity (200 mAh g⁻¹), low cost, and low environmental impact, Nb₂O₅ suffers from low conductivity and easy structural degradation during Na-ion intercalation and deintercalation reactions. In this work, α-Nb₂O₅@C@Ti₃C₂ composite is designed, in which α-Nb₂O₅ is an amorphous-phased Nb₂O₅, C is a carbon coating, and Ti₃C₂ is a MXene material. One-step hydrothermal process has been used to synthesize the α-Nb₂O₅@C@Ti₃C₂ composite with porous morphology and structural stability. The electrochemical measurements show that the α-Nb₂O₅@C@Ti₃C₂ anode can exhibit high capacity (191 mA h g⁻¹ at 0.1 A g⁻¹), excellent rate ability (72 mA h g⁻¹ at 4 A g⁻¹), and outstanding long cycle ability (121.1 mA h g⁻¹ at 2A g⁻¹ over 3000 cycles). In addition, through dynamic analysis, it is concluded that the excellent rate performance under high current density is due to the pseudo-capacitive behavior. The above results show that α-Nb₂O₅@C@Ti₃C₂ may play a promising role in the field of sodium-ion batteries.
