The invention discloses a method for preparing a metallic compound /
porous carbon nanorod of a hierarchy structure, and belongs to the technical field of
new energy. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, mixing inorganic
transition metal salt, 1,4-naphthalic acid and water so as to obtain a turbid solution of an
organic acid complex of
metal ions; secondly, under a high-temperature hydrothermal condition, performing reaction for a certain period of time so as to generate a precursor of a
metal organic frame; and finally, in the protection of an
inert gas, performing high-temperature
thermal treatment control, thereby obtaining the metallic compound /
porous carbon nanorod. As a
sodium-
ion battery negative material, the metallic compound /
porous carbon nanorod shows excellent multiplying power characteristic and
cycling stability. The method has the advantages of being simple in preparation process, low in
equipment requirement, rich in
raw material resource, low in production cost, short in synthesis cycle, gentle in reaction condition, high in yield, free of template removal, good in material property and the like, industrial production can be easily achieved, and a product can be used in the field of
electrochemical energy storage.
