Abstract

The present invention provides a high-concentration solution, which is suitable for electrolyte. The solution contains at least zinc ions, bromide ions and chloride ions. Through the action of "multi-salt co-dissolution", a new "salt-dissolving mixture" is formed, which greatly increases the concentration of the solution. . Further, the present invention also provides an ultra-high concentration solution, which also contains zinc acetate. Through the "end-capping" effect of zinc acetate, the salt cannot continue to aggregate and grow, and then it becomes an inorganic oligomer with a larger molecular weight and stably exists. In solution, its concentration can even reach 45mol kg ‑1 . The high concentration of electrolyte not only effectively inhibits the electrolysis of water, but also reduces the oxidation potential of bromide ions, which further promotes the intercalation of bromine in the battery cathode material, and greatly improves the specific capacity of the cathode (~638mAh g) ‑1 ). Moreover, the increase of the active ion concentration of the electrolyte can reduce the amount of the electrolyte, which is beneficial to the improvement of the energy density of the non-rocking-chair battery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a high-concentration solution and its application in water-based dual-ion batteries. The concentration of the solution can reach 30mol kg -1 Above, can greatly promote the specific capacity of the battery. Background technique [0002] Due to the rapid development of renewable energy technologies in recent years, the demand for grid-scale energy storage is growing. Although lithium-ion batteries dominate the electrochemical energy storage market including applications such as portable electronic devices and electric vehicles due to their high energy density, considering the natural abundance and uneven distribution of natural lithium resources, it is Grid energy storage at the gigawatt level is unreasonable, and it will also bring about higher costs. Aqueous electrochemical energy storage devices are not only cheap, but also extremely safe, providing a solution for large-scale storage of renewable energy. [0003] However, t...
