A rechargeable aqueous manganese-ion battery based on intercalation chemistry.

ABSTRACT: Aqueous rechargeable metal batteries are intrinsically safe due to the utilization of low-cost and non-flammable water-based electrolyte solutions. However, the discharge voltages of these electrochemical energy storage systems are often limited, thus, resulting in unsatisfactory energy density. Therefore, it is of paramount importance to investigate alternative aqueous metal battery systems to improve the discharge voltage. Herein, we report reversible manganese-ion intercalation chemistry in an aqueous electrolyte solution, where inorganic and organic compounds act as positive electrode active materials for Mn²⁺ storage when coupled with a Mn/carbon composite negative electrode. In one case, the layered Mn_0.18V₂O₅·nH₂O inorganic cathode demonstrates fast and reversible Mn²⁺ insertion/extraction due to the large lattice spacing, thus, enabling adequate power performances and stable cycling behavior. In the other case, the tetrachloro-1,4-benzoquinone organic cathode molecules undergo enolization during charge/discharge processes, thus, contributing to achieving a stable cell discharge plateau at about 1.37 V. Interestingly, the low redox potential of the Mn/Mn²⁺ redox couple vs. standard hydrogen electrode (i.e., -1.19 V) enables the production of aqueous manganese metal cells with operational voltages higher than their zinc metal counterparts.

A rechargeable iodine-carbon battery that exploits ion intercalation and iodine redox chemistry.

Project description:Graphitic carbons have been used as conductive supports for developing rechargeable batteries. However, the classic ion intercalation in graphitic carbon has yet to be coupled with extrinsic redox reactions to develop rechargeable batteries. Herein, we demonstrate the preparation of a free-standing, flexible nitrogen and phosphorus co-doped hierarchically porous graphitic carbon for iodine loading by pyrolysis of polyaniline coated cellulose wiper. We find that heteroatoms could provide additional defect sites for encapsulating iodine while the porous carbon skeleton facilitates redox reactions of iodine and ion intercalation. The combination of ion intercalation with redox reactions of iodine allows for developing rechargeable iodine-carbon batteries free from the unsafe lithium/sodium metals, and hence eliminates the long-standing safety issue. The unique architecture of the hierarchically porous graphitic carbon with heteroatom doping not only provides suitable spaces for both iodine encapsulation and cation intercalation but also generates efficient electronic and ionic transport pathways, thus leading to enhanced performance.Carbon-based electrodes able to intercalate Li+ and Na+ ions have been exploited for high performing energy storage devices. Here, the authors combine the ion intercalation properties of porous graphitic carbons with the redox chemistry of iodine to produce iodine-carbon batteries with high reversible capacities.

Electrochemically activated spinel manganese oxide for rechargeable aqueous aluminum battery.

Project description:Aluminum is a naturally abundant, trivalent charge carrier with high theoretical specific capacity and volumetric energy density, rendering aluminum-ion batteries a technology of choice for future large-scale energy storage. However, the frequent collapse of the host structure of the cathode materials and sluggish kinetics of aluminum ion diffusion have thus far hampered the realization of practical battery devices. Here, we synthesize AlxMnO2·nH2O by an in-situ electrochemical transformation reaction to be used as a cathode material for an aluminum-ion battery with a configuration of Al/Al(OTF)3-H2O/AlxMnO2·nH2O. This cell is not only based on aqueous electrolyte chemistry but also delivers a high specific capacity of 467 mAh g-1 and a record high energy density of 481 Wh kg-1. The high safety of aqueous electrolyte, facile cell assembly and the low cost of materials suggest that this aqueous aluminum-ion battery holds promise for large-scale energy applications.

Novel K2Ti8O17 Anode via Na+/Al3+ Co-Intercalation Mechanism for Rechargeable Aqueous Al-Ion Battery with Superior Rate Capability.

Project description:A promising aqueous aluminum ion battery (AIB) was assembled using a novel layered K2Ti8O17 anode against an activated carbon coated on a Ti mesh cathode in an AlCl3-based aqueous electrolyte. The intercalation/deintercalation mechanism endowed the layered K2Ti8O17 as a promising anode for rechargeable aqueous AIBs. NaAc was introduced into the AlCl3 aqueous electrolyte to enhance the cycling stability of the assembled aqueous AIB. The as-designed AIB displayed a high discharge voltage near 1.6 V, and a discharge capacity of up to 189.6 mAh g-1. The assembled AIB lit up a commercial light-emitting diode (LED) lasting more than one hour. Inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), and X-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy (XANES) were employed to investigate the intercalation/deintercalation mechanism of Na+/Al3+ ions in the aqueous AIB. The results indicated that the layered structure facilitated the intercalation/deintercalation of Na+/Al3+ ions, thus providing a high-rate performance of the K2Ti8O17 anode. The diffusion-controlled electrochemical characteristics and the reduction of Ti4+ species during the discharge process illustrated the intercalation/deintercalation mechanism of the K2Ti8O17 anode. This study provides not only insight into the charge-discharge mechanism of the K2Ti8O17 anode but also a novel strategy to design rechargeable aqueous AIBs.

Manipulating anion intercalation enables a high-voltage aqueous dual ion battery.

Project description:Aqueous graphite-based dual ion batteries have unique superiorities in stationary energy storage systems due to their non-transition metal configuration and safety properties. However, there is an absence of thorough study of the interactions between anions and water molecules and between anions and electrode materials, which is essential to achieve high output voltage. Here we reveal the four-stage intercalation process and energy conversion in a graphite cathode of anions with different configurations. The difference between the intercalation energy and hydration energy of bis(trifluoromethane)sulfonimide makes the best use of the electrochemical stability window of its electrolyte and delivers a high intercalation potential, while BF4- and CF3SO3- do not exhibit a satisfactory potential because the graphite intercalation potential of BF4- is inferior and the graphite intercalation potential of CF3SO3- exceeds the voltage window of its electrolyte. An aqueous dual ion battery based on the intercalation behaviors of bis(trifluoromethane)sulfonimide anions into a graphite cathode exhibits a high voltage of 2.2 V together with a specific energy of 242.74 Wh kg-1. This work provides clear guidance for the voltage plateau manipulation of anion intercalation into two-dimensional materials.

Reaction mechanisms for electrolytic manganese dioxide in rechargeable aqueous zinc-ion batteries.

Project description:This study reports the phase transformation behaviour associated with electrolytic manganese dioxide (EMD) utilized as the positive electrode active material for aqueous zinc-ion batteries. Electrochemical techniques, including galvanostatic charge-discharge and rotating ring-disk electrode measurements, and microstructural techniques, using X-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission/scanning transmission electron microscopy, were utilized to characterize the positive electrode at different stages of discharge and charge of zinc-ion cells. The results indicate that, during discharge, a fraction of EMD undergoes a transformation to ZnMn2O4 (spinel-type) and Zn2+ is intercalated into the tunnels of the γ- and ε-MnO2 phases, forming ZnxMnO2 (tunnel-type). When a critical concentration of Mn3+ in the intercalated ZnxMnO2 species is reached, a disproportionation/dissolution reaction is triggered leading to the formation of soluble Mn2+ and hydroxide (OH-) ions; the latter precipitates as zinc hydroxide sulfate (ZHS, Zn4(OH)6(SO4)·5H2O) by combination with the ZnSO4/H2O electrolyte. During charge, Zn2+ is reversibly deintercalated from the intergrown tunneled phases (γ-/ε-ZnxMnO2), Mn2+ is redeposited as layered chalcophanite (ZnMn3O7·3H2O), and ZHS is decomposed by protons (H+) formed during the electrochemical deposition of chalcophanite.

Enhanced Reversible Zinc Ion Intercalation in Deficient Ammonium Vanadate for High-Performance Aqueous Zinc-Ion Battery.

Project description:Ammonium vanadate with bronze structure (NH4V4O10) is a promising cathode material for zinc-ion batteries due to its high specific capacity and low cost. However, the extraction of [Formula: see text] at a high voltage during charge/discharge processes leads to irreversible reaction and structure degradation. In this work, partial [Formula: see text] ions were pre-removed from NH4V4O10 through heat treatment; NH4V4O10 nanosheets were directly grown on carbon cloth through hydrothermal method. Deficient NH4V4O10 (denoted as NVO), with enlarged interlayer spacing, facilitated fast zinc ions transport and high storage capacity and ensured the highly reversible electrochemical reaction and the good stability of layered structure. The NVO nanosheets delivered a high specific capacity of 457 mAh g-1 at a current density of 100 mA g-1 and a capacity retention of 81% over 1000 cycles at 2 A g-1. The initial Coulombic efficiency of NVO could reach up to 97% compared to 85% of NH4V4O10 and maintain almost 100% during cycling, indicating the high reaction reversibility in NVO electrode.

High power rechargeable magnesium/iodine battery chemistry.

Project description:Rechargeable magnesium batteries have attracted considerable attention because of their potential high energy density and low cost. However, their development has been severely hindered because of the lack of appropriate cathode materials. Here we report a rechargeable magnesium/iodine battery, in which the soluble iodine reacts with Mg2+ to form a soluble intermediate and then an insoluble final product magnesium iodide. The liquid-solid two-phase reaction pathway circumvents solid-state Mg2+ diffusion and ensures a large interfacial reaction area, leading to fast reaction kinetics and high reaction reversibility. As a result, the rechargeable magnesium/iodine battery shows a better rate capability (180 mAh g-1 at 0.5 C and 140 mAh g-1 at 1 C) and a higher energy density (∼400 Wh kg-1) than all other reported rechargeable magnesium batteries using intercalation cathodes. This study demonstrates that the liquid-solid two-phase reaction mechanism is promising in addressing the kinetic limitation of rechargeable magnesium batteries.

Oxygen Defects in β-MnO<sub>2</sub> Enabling High-Performance Rechargeable Aqueous Zinc/Manganese Dioxide Battery.

Project description:Rechargeable aqueous Zn/manganese dioxide (Zn/MnO2) batteries are attractive energy storage technology owing to their merits of low cost, high safety, and environmental friendliness. However, the β-MnO2 cathode is still plagued by the sluggish ion insertion kinetics due to the relatively narrow tunneled pathway. Furthermore, the energy storage mechanism is under debate as well. Here, β-MnO2 cathode with enhanced ion insertion kinetics is introduced by the efficient oxygen defect engineering strategy. Density functional theory computations show that the β-MnO2 host structure is more likely for H+ insertion rather than Zn2+, and the introduction of oxygen defects will facilitate the insertion of H+ into β-MnO2. This theoretical conjecture is confirmed by the capacity of 302 mA h g-1 and capacity retention of 94% after 300 cycles in the assembled aqueous Zn/β-MnO2 cell. These results highlight the potentials of defect engineering as a strategy of improving the electrochemical performance of β-MnO2 in aqueous rechargeable batteries.

Synthesis of manganese-based complex as cathode material for aqueous rechargeable batteries.

Project description:A low-cost and eco-friendly system based on a manganese-based complex cathode and zinc anode was demonstrated. The cathode is able to reversibly (de-)insert Zn2+ ions, providing a high capacity of 248 mA h g-1 at 0.1 A g-1. Ex situ TEM and XRD were utilized to determine the electrochemical mechanism of this high capacity cathode. Moreover, the contribution of pre-added Mn2+ in electrolyte to the capacity was revealed, and nearly 18.9% of the capacity is ascribed to the contribution of pre-added Mn2+. With the help of additive, this aqueous rechargeable battery shows outstanding electrochemical property. Its cycling performance is good with 6% capacity loss after 2000 cycles at 4.0 A g-1, highlighting it as a promising system for aqueous rechargeable battery applications.

Low-Temperature Charge/Discharge of Rechargeable Battery Realized by Intercalation Pseudocapacitive Behavior.

Project description:Conventional intercalation compounds for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) suffer from rapid capacity fading and are even unable to charge-discharge with temperature decline, owing to the sluggish kinetics and solvation/desolvation process. In this work, a high-performance rechargeable battery at ultralow temperature is developed by employing a nanosized Ni-based Prussian blue (NiHCF) cathode. The battery delivers a high capacity retention of 89% (low temperature of -50 °C) and 82% (ultralow temperature of -70 °C) compared with that at +25 °C. Various characterizations and electrochemical investigations, including operando Fourier transform infrared spectra, in situ X-ray diffraction, cyclic voltammetry response, and galvanostatic intermittent titration technique are carried out to detect the structural stability and electrochemical behavior at different temperatures. It turns out that the pseudocapacitive behavior drives the desolvation process at the interface, while fast diffusion in the bulk electrode accelerates the movement of Li+ from the interface to the bulk materials. The unique synergistic features of intercalation pseudocapacitance at the electrolyte/electrode interface and high diffusion coefficient in the bulk electrode enables the NiHCF cathode with excellent low temperature performance. These findings offer a new direction for the design of LIBs operated at low temperature.
