AI Technical Summary
Existing cement-based materials have limited functionality in thermoelectric conversion and energy storage, failing to achieve both efficient conversion and real-time storage. Furthermore, the high carbon content in these materials leads to insufficient structural stability.
By incorporating low amounts of water-soluble polymers and two-dimensional MXene materials into cement paste, a ternary composite system of water-soluble polymer-two-dimensional MXene-ion donor solution is constructed. This system adjusts the pore distribution and improves the Seebeck coefficient and ionic conductivity. Combined with a double-layer capacitor storage electrode, it achieves integrated thermoelectric conversion and electrical energy storage.
The thermoelectric and electrochemical properties of the thermoelectric cement-based structural electrolyte have been improved, realizing the conversion of thermal energy into electrical energy and the real-time storage of electrical energy. It has the potential to be used as a building load-bearing structural material, with a maximum area specific capacitance of 1477.3 mF/cm2 and an energy density of 0.207 mWh/cm2.
