Batteries and Fuel Cells

27.9K
A battery is a galvanic cell that is used as a source of electrical power for specific applications. Modern batteries exist in a multitude of forms to accommodate various applications, from tiny button batteries such as those that power wristwatches to the very large batteries used to supply backup energy to municipal power grids. Some batteries are designed for single-use applications and cannot be recharged (primary cells), while others are based on conveniently reversible cell reactions that...

Ion Exchange

635
Ion exchange chromatography separates charged molecules from a solution by reversibly exchanging them with mobile, or 'active', ions associated with the oppositely charged stationary phase. This method can be used to separate ions, soften and deionize water, and purify solutions. The polymers comprising the ion-exchange column are high-molecular-weight and chemically stable polymers, crosslinked to be porous and essentially insoluble. They are also functionalized with either acidic or...

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Polymer Chemistry
  • Electrochemistry

Background:

  • All-solid-state polymer electrolytes (ASPEs) are crucial for next-generation batteries but face challenges balancing mechanical strength and ionic conductivity.
  • Existing ASPEs struggle to reconcile improved mechanical properties with efficient ion transport, hindering industrial scalability.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel concept of high-entropy microdomain interlocking ASPEs (HEMI-ASPEs) for improved performance in solid-state lithium metal batteries.
  • To address the inherent contradiction between mechanical robustness and ionic mobility in ASPEs.

Main Methods:

  • Synthesized multifunctional ABC miktoarm star terpolymers and incorporated them into polyethylene oxide.
  • Engineered dynamic interlocking networks with high topological structure entropy within the polymer electrolyte.
  • Fabricated and tested Li|HEMI-ASPE-Li|Li symmetrical cells and LiFePO4|HEMI-ASPE-Li|Li full cells.

Main Results:

  • HEMI-ASPEs exhibited excellent toughness, good ionic conductivity, a lithium transference number of 0.63, and thermal stability above 400°C.
  • Symmetrical cells demonstrated stable lithium plating/stripping for over 4000 hours.
  • Full cells achieved high capacity retention of approximately 96% after 300 cycles.

Conclusions:

  • The high-entropy microdomain interlocking strategy successfully creates advanced ASPEs with superior mechanical and electrochemical properties.
  • This innovative approach using supramolecular dynamic networks offers a promising pathway for developing high-performance all-solid-state lithium metal batteries.
