Abstract

Battery technology represents a cornerstone in the evolution of the energy sector, driven by the urgent need for sustainable and efficient energy storage systems. Various materials, including metals, non-metals, semiconductors, and polymeric gel conductors comprise batteries, and their size and composition can significantly affect battery performance. The essential components of a battery are electrolytes, electrodes, nanogelators, and membranes that can be built up by using nanogels. The nanogel components significantly enhance the efficiency and stability of redox-active flow batteries, which makes them cheaper and eco-friendly. Little research has been conducted on nanogel-based battery technology. This study mainly focuses on the nanogels used in the components of batteries. The review explains the functions of nanogels in different electrolytes, electrodes, nanogelators, and membranes. This review explicitly discusses the current status and literature background of nanogels and hydrogels in battery technology. For anyone interested in delving deeper into the realm of nanogel-based batteries, this review article serves as a valuable resource, offering a thorough exploration of their role in revolutionizing modern energy storage systems.

期刊介绍： The journal Gels (ISSN 2310-2861) is an international, open access journal on physical (supramolecular) and chemical gel-based materials. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. Therefore, there is no restriction on the maximum length of the papers, and full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Short communications, full research papers and review papers are accepted formats for the preparation of the manuscripts. Gels aims to serve as a reference journal with a focus on gel materials for researchers working in both academia and industry. Therefore, papers demonstrating practical applications of these materials are particularly welcome. Occasionally, invited contributions (i.e., original research and review articles) on emerging issues and high-tech applications of gels are published as special issues.
