RESUMO
Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) have emerged as highly promising cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) due to their affordability, facile synthesis, porous framework, and high theoretical capacity. Despite their considerable potential, practical applications of PBAs face significant challenges that limit their performance. This review offers a comprehensive retrospective analysis of PBAs' development history as cathode materials, delving into their reaction mechanisms, including charge compensation and ion diffusion mechanisms. Furthermore, to overcome these challenges, a range of improvement strategies are proposed, encompassing modifications in synthesis techniques and enhancements in structural stability. Finally, the commercial viability of PBAs is examined, alongside discussions on advanced synthesis methods and existing concerns regarding cost and safety, aiming to foster ongoing advancements of PBAs for practical SIBs.
