“…[ 1 ] To date, a variety of RAMB on a basis of monovalent ions (e.g., Li + , Na + and K + ) intercalation chemistry have been explored. [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] Among them, "rocking-chair" RAMB based on Li + as shuttle ions such as VO 2 4 have been studied extensively. [2][3][4][5][6][7][8] Due to the higher natural abundance of sodium and/or potassium resource than lithium resource, RAMB with Na + shuttles or K + shuttles are of greater interests.…”

In aqueous electrolyte batteries, the salt concentration of the electrolyte affects the ionic conductivity, which will further affect the rate performance of the battery as well as the diffusion of reactive species that can cause self-discharge, particularly in thick electrode devices. To this end, we explored the implications of device performance using Na 0.44 MnO 2 cathode material, NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 , anode material in a NaClO 4 -based aqueous solutions with molarities as high as 5. Experiments included physical property characterizations, cyclic voltammetry, and constant current charging/discharging methods. Preliminary results indicate that, in cells with thick electrodes (∼1mm), rate capability and electrode utilization increased significantly with higher molarity solutions: capacity at the 1.5 C rate increased 38% by increasing the salt concentration from 1 M to 5 M. At the same time the oxygen-related self-discharge phenomenon was diminished when using higher electrolyte molarities, though there was still measurable loss in capacity in in the electrodes. Irreversible capacity loss was observed to occur even in electrolytes with the lowest oxygen content, suggesting that self discharge and capacity loss are not necessarily causally related. Clean and renewable energy technologies will require low cost batteries. As such, aqueous electrolyte alkali-ion batteries are promising solutions for those applications where the constraints on energy density and weight are less rigid compared to mobile or portable applications. The use of an aqueous electrolyte offers several advantages, specifically for large-scale energy storage applications, compared with batteries that are based on organic electrolyte blends. Neutral pH aqueous electrolyte batteries are non-flammable, have fast internal ion transportation and have the promise of having a relatively lower manufacturing cost. However, the stability window of water limits the voltage of an aqueous cell. Researchers have found the practical stability window of aqueous electrolyte is wider than the theoretical limit due to the kinetic effect. [1][2][3][4][5] This enables the usage of materials such as LiMn 2 O 4 whose operating potential exceeds the thermodynamic limit of pure water in the aqueous system. 17 However, capacity fading of aqueous cells is often reported in the literature with different electrode material systems. 3,13,17,18 Dissolved oxygen reacting with inserted Li/Na ions was believed to be one of the causes for capacity fading.3 In our study, we closely examined the influence of dissolved oxygen on anode stability.To make aqueous electrolyte batteries economically viable, relatively thick electrode structures must be used. 5,19 Electrolyte with good ionic conductivity is then needed to support such thick format electrodes to enhance ion transport throughout the device, thereby reducing ionic polarization. To this end, it is of interest to probe the relationship between electrolyte salt content, ionic conductivity, and overall device stability. We elec...

“…It is clear that this cycling behavior is much better than those reported previously. [9][10][11] Of course, its capacity still fades. However, we think that this capacity fading can be ameliorated by adjusting the composition of the electrolytes and the current collector and processing, since the data in Figure 1 clearly show that the side reaction from water is very slight.…”

An Aqueous Rechargeable Lithium Battery with Good Cycling Performance

The development of the world economy and the consequent increase in traffic means that increasing numbers of heavy fuel-powered vehicles are appearing on our roads, resulting in greater pollution of the environment. Electric vehicles (EVs) are a new, developing trend in the world automotive industry, and an important tool for reducing CO 2 emissions and protecting the environment. EVs must first and foremost be safe and reliable, and must operate with acceptable costs. Unfortunately, thus far, few kinds of batteries can meet all the requirements for EVs. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] In the case of lithium-ion batteries, their use in EVs is still handicapped by significant safety problems, although their other performance attributes are often satisfactory. The main problem is that they use flammable organic electrolytes, which cannot withstand improper use, such as overcharging or short-circuiting, although much effort has been expended in this direction. [4] The development of new types of "green" battery materials and safer, less-expensive rechargeable systems is therefore necessary.In the mid 1990s, a new type of rechargeable lithium-ion battery with an aqueous electrolyte was reported. [9,10] This battery uses lithium-intercalation compounds such as LiMn 2 O 4 , LiNi 0.81 Co 0.19 O 2 , and VO 2 as the electrode material and an alkaline or neutral aqueous electrolyte, [9][10][11] and can overcome the disadvantages of nonaqueous lithium-ion batteries, such as high cost and safety problems. However, since its cycling was reported to be very poor it failed to attract strong interest from researchers.Here we report that an aqueous rechargeable lithium battery (ARLB) with LiCoO 2 as the positive electrode, LiV 3 O 8 as the negative electrode, and saturated LiNO 3 solution as the electrolyte shows good cycling and therefore shows promise as a power source for safe EVs.The cyclic voltammograms of LiV 3 O 8 and LiCoO 2 in saturated LiNO 3 aqueous electrolyte are shown in Figure 1. In the case of LiV 3 O 8 , there is one pair of redox peaks located at À0.19 (red. 1) and 0.098 V (ox. 1) versus a saturated calomel electrode (SCE), which is evidently due to the intercalation and deintercalation reaction accompanying gain and loss of an electron. The average redox potential is À0.046 V (versus SCE). Since hydrogen evolution was observed at a more negative potential due to overpotential (ca. À1.0 V versus SCE), it is clear that LiV 3 O 8 is very stable in this aqueous electrolyte and can be used as a negative electrode material without significant hydrogen evolution. LiCoO 2 also exhibits one pair of Li + intercalation and deintercalation peaks at 0.8 (red. 2) and 1.35 V (ox. 2) versus SCE, respectively (average redox potential of 1.075 V versus SCE). These voltages are also lower than that for oxygen evolution, which is at approximately 1.8 V versus SCE. This illustrates that the positive electrode is also stable in this aqueous solution.The charge and discharge curves of LiV 3 O 8 //LiCoO 2 cells in the first cycle in organic ...
