Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) have attracted considerable attention in energy storage due to their unique properties, including a wide electrochemical stability window that facilitates their use in high-voltage systems, enhancing the battery energy density. For instance, the electrolyte consisting of polyethylene glycol diacrylate (PEGDA), LiBF4 salt, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (EMIBF4) ionic liquid, and SiO2 nanoparticles exhibited the total conductivity with significant values, reaching approximately 10–4 S cm–1 at −40 °C, 10–3 S cm–1 at 25 °C, and 10–2 S cm–1 at 100 °C for battery. Taking this into consideration, this Review highlights recent advancements in the development and utilization of ionic liquid electrolytes for various energy storage devices, including batteries and supercapacitors. Additionally, this review presents the bibliometric analysis of global research on ILs for energy storage devices from 2019 to 2024. By analyzing 2486 research articles from Web of Science (WOS) and Scopus databases, the study explores publication trends, citation patterns, and collaboration networks. Furthermore, the incorporation of additives, nanostructured materials, and polymer matrices has been explored to improve the mechanical and electrochemical stabilities of ionic liquid electrolytes. The study addresses the gap in understanding the practical implications of ILs in real-world energy storage systems, emphasizing the need for further research on their scalability and integration. The findings suggest that ILs hold promise for developing safer and more efficient energy storage solutions with potential applications across various industries. These insights aim to guide future research and development in the field and promote the adoption of ILs in next-generation energy technologies.
离子液体(ILs)由于其独特的性能,包括广泛的电化学稳定窗口,便于其在高压系统中使用,提高了电池的能量密度,在储能领域引起了相当大的关注。例如,由聚乙二醇二丙烯酸酯(PEGDA)、LiBF4盐、1-乙基-3-甲基咪唑四氟硼酸盐(EMIBF4)离子液体和SiO2纳米颗粒组成的电解质在电池中表现出显著的总电导率,在- 40℃时达到约10-4 S cm-1,在25℃时达到10-3 S cm-1,在100℃时达到10-2 S cm-1。鉴于此,本文重点介绍了离子液体电解质在各种储能装置(包括电池和超级电容器)中的开发和利用的最新进展。此外,本文还对2019年至2024年全球储能设备ILs研究进行了文献计量分析。该研究通过分析来自Web of Science (WOS)和Scopus数据库的2486篇研究论文,探讨了发表趋势、引用模式和协作网络。此外,还探索了添加剂、纳米结构材料和聚合物基质的掺入来提高离子液体电解质的机械和电化学稳定性。该研究解决了在理解ILs在现实世界储能系统中的实际意义方面的差距,强调了对其可扩展性和集成进行进一步研究的必要性。研究结果表明,人工智能有望开发出更安全、更高效的储能解决方案,在各个行业都有潜在的应用。这些见解旨在指导该领域未来的研究和开发,并促进il在下一代能源技术中的采用。
