In article number 2003854, Ying Bai, Hongcai Gao, Chuan Wu and co‐workers provide an in‐depth understanding of the steady state of sodium in hard carbon. Due to the electron transfer between carbon and Na‐ions, sodium stored in hard carbon exhibits metallic properties, which can be verified by the reaction between protic solvents (ethanol) and metallic sodium.
