摘要
固定式电化学储能需要低成本、高安全的下一代化学物质,其中基于位移反应的Na-NiCl2电池脱颖而出,但受到脆弱的β″-Al2O3膜的威胁。在这里,我们提出了一类低损耗、中温(150°C)、无膜铝置换电池(ADBs),该电池基于过渡金属(TM;Fe, Co, Ni)及其氯化物(TMCs)在碱氯铝酸盐熔盐中的应用。至关重要的是,通过控制氯铝酸盐熔盐电解质的刘易斯酸度,通过限制TMC的溶解度及其与Al负极的串扰,可以实现电池的无膜操作。该结构的Ni阴极具有380 mA h g-1的高容量,在0.2 a g-1的速率下过电位低至~ 50 mV,并且在500次循环中具有很高的稳定性。此外,我们展示了一种无膜Al-Fe置换电池,有望为固定能量存储提供超低成本的途径。
Membrane-less Aluminum Displacement Batteries Based on Transition Metal Chlorination in Molten Salts
Stationary electrochemical energy storage calls for low-cost and high-safety next-generation chemistries, among which the Na-NiCl2 battery based on the displacement reaction stands out but is threatened by the fragile β″-Al2O3 membrane. Here we present a class of low-lost, medium-temperature (150 °C), membrane-less aluminum displacement batteries (ADBs) based on a reversible solid-to-solid displacement reaction between transition metals (TM; Fe, Co, Ni) and their chlorides (TMCs) in alkali chloroaluminate molten salts. Crucially, manipulation of the Lewis acidity of the chloroaluminate molten salt electrolyte enables membrane-less operation of the cell by restricting solubility of the TMC and its crosstalk with the Al negative electrode. The structured Ni cathode exhibits a high capacity of 380 mA h g–1, low overpotential of ∼50 mV at the rate of 0.2 A g–1, and high stability over 500 cycles. Furthermore, we demonstrate a membrane-less Al–Fe displacement battery that promises an ultralow-cost avenue for stationary energy storage.
