Recent progress in quasi-solid and solid polymer electrolytes for multivalent metal-ion batteries

Abstract

The increasing demand for alternative energy sources promotes the rapid development of new energy storage technologies. Multivalent ion batteries (MIBs) such as zinc (Zn), calcium (Ca), aluminum (Al), and magnesium...

In situ prepared “polymer-in-salt” electrolytes enabling high-voltage lithium metal batteries

“…34 The peak intensity decreases dramatically for the PISE and broad diffusion peaks are observed, implying that lithium salt inhibits the crystallization of PCA. 35,36 Furthermore, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was employed to conrm the trend. As shown in Fig.…”

Silk Fibroin Coating Enables Dendrite‐free Zinc Anode for Long‐Life Aqueous Zinc‐Ion Batteries

“…Among multivalent ion batteries, zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) stand out due to many advantages. [14][15][16] Zn metal has high reserves, low cost, and environmental stability. The aqueous electrolyte is highly conductive, safe, and environmentally friendly.…”

Synergistic effects of B/S co-doped spongy-like hierarchically porous carbon for a high performance zinc-ion hybrid capacitor

“…, lithium-ion batteries) have been widely employed because of their high energy density, but their inferior power density, cycle life and safety problems hinder their further development. 7–12 Recently, the emerging metal-ion hybrid capacitors (MIHCs) have aroused great interest, which combine both the advantages of supercapacitors and metal-ion batteries for achieving satisfactory energy density, power density, safety and cycling ability. 13–16 Among various MIHCs, zinc-ion hybrid capacitors (ZIHCs) have been widely explored due to their high theoretical capacity (823 mA h g −1 ), low oxidation/reduction potential (−0.76 V), good compatibility with water, rich zinc source and excellent safety.…”
