Manganese sulfide (MnS) has triggered great interest as an anode material for rechargeable Li-ion/Na-ion batteries (LIBs/SIBs) because of its low cost, high electrochemical activity, and theoretical capacity. Nevertheless, the practical application is greatly hindered by its rapid capacity decay lead by inevitable active dissolutions and volume expansions in charge/discharge cycles. To resolve the above issues in LIBs/SIBs, we herein put forward the smart construction of MnS nanowires embedded in carbon nanoreactors (MnS@C NWs) via a facile solution method followed by a scalable in situ sulfuration treatment. This engineering protocol toward electrode architectures/configurations endows integrated MnS@C NWs anodes with large specific capacity (with a maximum value of 847 mA h g–¹ in LIBs and 720 mA h g–¹ in SIBs), good operation stability, excellent rate capabilities, and prolonged cyclic life span. To prove their potential real applications, we have established the full cells (for LIBs, MnS@C//LiFePO₄; for SIBs, MnS@C//Na₃V₂(PO₄)₃), both of which are capable of showing remarkable specific capacities, outstanding rate performance, and superb cyclic endurance. This work offers a scalable, simple, and efficient evolution method to produce the integrated hybrid of MnS@C NWs, providing useful inspiration/guidelines for anodic applications of metal sulfides in next-generation power sources.
