AB - The growth of Na-dendrites and the dissolution of organic cathodes are twomajor challenges that hinder the development of sodium-organic batteries(SOBs). Herein, a multifunctional Janus separator (h-BN@PP@C) by using aninterfacial engineering strategy, is proposed to tackle the issues of SOBs. Thecarbon layer facing the organic cathode serves as a barrier to capturedissolved organic materials and enhance their utilization. Meanwhile, theh-BN layer facing the Na anode possesses high thermal conductivity andmechanical strength, which mitigates the occurrence of localized-temperature“hot spots” and promotes the formation of a NaF-enriched SEI, therebysuppressing dendrite growth. Consequently, the Janus separator enables astable Na plating/stripping cycling for 1000 h at 3 mA cm−2. Equipped withthe Janus separator, organic cathodes including dibenzo[b,i]thianthrene-5,7,12,14-tetraone (DTT), pentacene-5,7,12,14-tetrone andCalix[4]quinone cathodes demonstrate high capacity and remarkable cyclingperformance. In particular, the DTT exhibits a bipolar co-reaction storagemechanism and achieves an ultrahigh capacity (≈342.6 mAh g−1), long-termcycling stability (capacity decay rate of 0.15% per cycle over 550 cycles at500 mA g−1) and fast kinetics (1000 mA g−1≈2.8 C). This study offers astraightforward, effective, and promising solution to address the challenges in SOBs.
