A glass fiber diaphragm (GF/D, Whatman) was used as the separator, and the electrolyte consisted of 1M NaPF6 dissolved in a ternary solvent mixture of ethylene carbonate (EC), dimethyl carbonate (DMC), and ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC) in a volume ratio of 1:2:2. Galvanostatic charge and discharge (GCD) testing was carried out on a battery test system (Newell, China) at 25 °C with potential range of 0.005 V - 2.5 V versus Na+/Na. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) tests were performed on a potentiostat (CHI660E, Chenhua, Shanghai, China) with a sweep rate of 0.1 mV/s.
