Na(CoO2)₂ is a layered sodium cobalt oxide ceramic compound belonging to the family of mixed-valence transition metal oxides. This material is primarily investigated in research settings for its thermoelectric properties, where the layered crystal structure enables efficient conversion of thermal gradients to electrical potential. Na(CoO2)₂ is notable among thermoelectric ceramics for its relatively high electrical conductivity combined with low thermal conductivity, making it a candidate for waste heat recovery and power generation applications where conventional metals prove insufficient.
