Salts with asymmetric (fluorosulfonyl)(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (FTFSI) anions have recently been shown to suppress crystallization of water-in-salt electrolytes, enabling low-temperature operation of high-voltage aqueous rechargeable batteries. To c ...
The development of new solid-state electrolytes is a key step
in improving the performance and safety of battery technology.
Although the use of first-principle methods has proved invaluable
in better understanding the process at play in these materials, ...
In a recent article entitled "Solubility Parameter of Carbon Dioxide-an Enigma"[1], Marcus reported the literature values for the solubility parameter of liquid carbon dioxide (CO2) at 298 K with discrepancies as large as 200%. An analogous article on ioni ...
In an electrochemical reactor (R) for producing oxygen and hydrogen by means of electrolysis of an electrolyte (16), wherein the electrochemical reactor (R) comprises a first electrode set (S) and wherein the first electrode set (S) comprises a first elect ...
Electrodeposition of stainless steel-like materials such as FeCrNi alloy into micro- and nanotemplates provides a sustainable framework for creating biomedical-oriented micro- and nanocomponents with outstanding characteristics. While Cr(III)-based electro ...
Dendrite formation limits the cycle life of lithium and sodium metal anodes and remainsa major challenge for their integration into next-generation batteries, even whenreplacing the liquid electrolyte by a solid electrolyte. Voids forming in solid metal an ...
Water-in-salt electrolytes have enabled the development of novel high-voltage aqueous lithium-ion batteries. This study explores the reasons why analogous sodium electrolytes have struggled to reach the same level of electrochemical stability. Solution str ...
The exploration of highly active bifunctional electrocatalysts for acidic electrochemical water splitting has attracted wide attention due to their importance in polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) electrolyzers. However, existing catalysts normally suffer ...
The water-in-salt approach has expanded the electrochemical stability window of aqueous electrolytes, enabling novel aqueous batteries with relatively high cell voltages and energy densities. However, the stability of these electrolytes tends to be overest ...
Lithium-ion batteries are widely implemented as energy storage devices due to their high energy density and low cost. They enabled modern portable electronics and electric ve-hicles, and are key to manage the integration of intermittent renewable electrici ...
