Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are a pitch-based negative electrode material for a sodium-ion battery and related methods and applications. The method comprises: placing a pitch recursor into a muffle furnace to allow the pitch precursor to experience pre-oxidation for 2 to 6 hours at a temperature ranging from 200° C. to 350° C., to obtain pre-oxidized pitch; placing the pre-oxidized pitch into a high-temperature carbonization furnace, and increasing the temperature to 1300° C. to 1600° C. at a temperature increase speed of 0.5° C./min to 5° C./min, and carrying out thermal treatment on the pre-oxidized pitch in an inert atmosphere for 1 to 10 hours, to allow the pre-oxidized pitch to experience carbonization reactions, oxygen in the pre-oxidized pitch being used for breaking an ordered structure of the pitch during the carbonization of the pre-oxidized pitch, so as to form a wedge-shaped voids disordered structure.
