On the Structural Evolution Mechanism of Lignin‐Derived Hard Carbon for Refining Sodium‐Ion Storage

Electron, EarlyView.
The lignin‐derived hard carbons with different microstructures were prepared under different carbonization temperature (600°C–1600°C) and carbonization time (0–6 h). The correlation between the local structure of all hard carbons and sodium‐ion storage performance was statistically analyzed. The optimized hard carbon anode has high‐rate performance and
