Secondary alkali-metal salts in supporting electrolytes for lithium polysulfide flow batteries

TLThomas James LeckieCTCalvin N TurnerAKAlan R Kennedy

Key Points

  • This research aims to explore the role of secondary alkali-metal salts in supporting electrolytes for lithium polysulfide flow batteries.
  • Evaluated different secondary alkali-metal salts in electrolytes
  • Conducted performance assessments of lithium polysulfide flow batteries under various conditions
  • Analyzed the impact of salts on battery efficiency and longevity.
  • Using secondary alkali-metal salts improved the electrical conductivity of the flow batteries.
  • The optimized electrolyte formulation showed a 25% increase in energy density compared to conventional setups.
  • Enhanced performance stability over extended charge-discharge cycles was observed.

Abstract

Lithium polysulfide (LiPS) flow batteries are a promising next-generation technology for long-duration energy storage that offer several advantages over the more conventional lithium-sulfur configuration. Using liquid-phase polysulfides in a single-liquid...
