Milos D. Milovic was born in 1987 in Pristina, Serbia. He studied at the Faculty of Physical Chemistry, University

of Belgrade. Currently, he is working as a research associate at the Institute of Technical Sciences of the Serbian

Academy of Sciences and Arts, Belgrade, Serbia. He holds a PhD in Physical Chemistry since 2016 and his field ofinterest covers chemical power sources with a focus on cathode materials for lithium ion batteries. The results

of his research activities have been published in a number of peer-reviewed papers and presented at numerousscientific conferences.

A nlodified solid state reaction (an adopted nlethod thatincludes sequential cycles of rapid heating - at 750°C in theair with d\vell time of 15 nlinutes - and rapid cooling, with anintermediate grinding of the powder between two cycles) wasapplied for the preparation of a pristine NaxCo02 povvder.Na2C03 and C030 4 in a nlolar ratio 1.7 : 1 \vere used asstarting cOlnpounds. Fluorination of the synthesized NaxCo02

Lower market cost of sodium in contrast to lithium lnakessodium intercalating compounds attractive for application aselectrodes in rechargeable sodium batteries. Among them,sodium cobalt oxide, NaxCo02, have been extensivelyinvestigated as potential cathode material for sodiunl ionbatteries [1]. NaxCo02 crystallizes in a nUlnber of layeredstructures depending on sodium content, oxygen partialpressure and temperature [2]. In each of these structures,edge-sharing Co06 octahedra form sheets between whichsodium ions are inserted with trigonal prisnlatic (P) oroctahedral (0) environment. The packing differs in thenunlber of sheets vvithin the uni t cell - 2 or 3 sheets ­creating three possible structural types denoted as 03, P2,and P3. The P2 type of structure (displayed in Figure 1) isconsidered as the most suitable for electrochemicalapplication for its cycle stability.Within this research the possibility of fluorine doping of theP2 type NaxCo02 powder was examined. As fluorinesubstitution already proved successful in improving cathodeperformance of layered lithium-based counterparts, theeffects of fluorination on structure and electrochenlicalproperties ofP2 NaxCo02 were investigated and discussed.
