High-capacity polysulfide-polyiodide nonaqueous redox flow batteries with a ceramic membrane.

ABSTRACT: Nonaqueous redox flow batteries (NRFBs) have been regarded as promising large-scale electrochemical energy storage technology due to the wider solvent stable potential windows and greater selection of materials. However, the application of NRFBs is greatly limited considering the low capacity and high cost of active materials. In this work, we design and demonstrate a high-capacity polysulfide (PS)-polyiodide (PI) NRFB in Li-ion based 1,3-dioxolane (DOL) and 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) (v/v ∼ 1 : 1) organic electrolyte. The high solubility and low cost of PS (5 M) and PI (4 M) can achieve the high capacity and high applicability of NRFBs, which is attractive for realizing large-scale stationary energy storage. The highest volumetric capacity of 28 Ah L^-1 based on a full cell is ac
