In April 2025, CATL announced their electric battery brand that is based on sodium - Naxtra
China's CATL launches new sodium-ion battery brand | Reuters
https://www.reuters.com/technology/chinese-battery-maker-catl-launches-second-generation-fast-charging-battery-2025-04-21/
The first production under the Naxtra brand will be of a new sodium-ion battery with an energy density of 175 watt-hours per kilogram, nearly equivalent to the lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries popularly used in electric vehicles and grid energy storage systems. 90.251.221.150 (talk) 05:38, 22 April 2025 (UTC)

:Due to having low atomic mass and large atomic radius, sodium is third-least dense of all elemental metals and is one of only three metals that can float on water, the other two being lithium and potassium. (Greenwood & Earnshaw 1997, p75)
Page 75 of Greenwood & Earnshaw is about sodium, but it doesn't say anything about whether it can float on water. Besides, it would be a courageous experiment to undertake. Marnanel (talk) 17:41, 29 April 2025 (UTC)
