The solid‐state electrolyte in a solid‐state battery acts as an electrons' barrier and an ions' bridge between the two electrodes. As solid‐state electrolyte does not store the mobile ions, it is necessary to achieve a thin solid‐state electrolyte to reduce the internal resistance and enhance the energy density. In this work, a thin NASICON solid‐state electrolyte, with a stoichiometry of Na3Zr2Si2PO12, is fabricated by the tape‐casting method and its thickness can be easily controlled by the gap between substrate and scraper. The areal‐specific resistance and the flexural strength increase with the electrolyte thickness. A solid‐state sodium metal battery with 86 μm thick Na3Zr2Si2PO12 exhibits a reversible specific capacity of 73–78 mAh g−1 with a redox potential of 3.4 V at 0.2 C. This work presents the importance of electrolyte thickness to reduce internal resistance and achieve a high energy density for sodium batteries.
Three carbon nanotubes post treatment evaluated for their impacts on film condu treatment was found to be the most impactful conductivity improvement, with >3 times redu resistance for long hour soaking in 9M sulfuric nanotube sorting with agarose gel method for walled carbon nanotube enrichment also improvement with ~2.5 to 3 times reduction in s by simply enhancing the % M-SWNT from 33%
