Aqueous aluminum-ion batteries hold promises for advanced energy storage systems due to their cost-effectiveness, air stability, and eco-friendliness. However, their development is significantly hindered by the intrinsic limitations of aluminum anodes and aluminum-based electrolytes.
To outline future research directions for aqueous aluminum-ion batteries, we focus on recent advances in novel aqueous electrolytes and anode materials for aqueous aluminum-ion batteries, along with strategies to suppress parasitic anode reactions, including hydrogen evolution reaction, dendrite growth, and surface passivation.
Aluminum-ion batteries (AIBs) are promising next-generation batteries systems because of their features of low cost and abundant aluminum resource. However, the inferior rate capacity and poor all-climate performance, especially the decayed capacity under low temperature, are still critical challenges toward high-specific-capacity AIBs.
To meet these demands, it is essential to pave the path toward post lithium-ion batteries. Aluminum-ion batteries (AIBs), which are considered as potential candidates for the next generation batteries, have gained much attention due to their low cost, safety, low dendrite formation, and long cycle life.
Most importantly, we predict that aluminum-zinc alloy anodes, novel hydrated eutectic electrolytes, and anode-free batteries may emerge as key research frontiers in the future development of aqueous aluminum-ion batteries. 2. Non-aqueous aluminum ion batteries
Rechargeable Aluminum-ion batteries (AIBs) system have been attracting attention owing to its potential high safety, low cost, high theoretical specific capacity high power density and three electron-redox for aluminum (Al) metal anode.
