Aqueous zinc-bromine batteries (AZBBs) gain considerable attention as a next-generation energy storage technology due to their high energy density, cost-effectiveness and intrinsic safety. Despite these advantages, challenges such as the polybromide ion shuttle effect, self-discharge, and zinc anode instability hinder their widespread applications.
A novel single flow zinc-bromine battery with improved energy density. J. Power Sources 235, 1–4 (2013). Jiang, H. R., Wu, M. C., Ren, Y. X., Shyy, W. & Zhao, T. S. Towards a uniform distribution of zinc in the negative electrode for zinc bromine flow batteries. Appl. Energy 213, 366–374 (2018).
Aqueous zinc-bromine flow batteries show promise for grid storage but suffer from zinc dendrite growth and hydrogen evolution reaction. Here, authors develop a reversible carbon felt electrode with Pb nanoparticles to suppress these issues, improving battery performance and cycle stability.
At present, zinc-bromine (Zn Br) flow batteries have been widely studied. However, a significant disadvantage of Zn Br flow batteries is that they heavily rely on an energy-consuming pumping system, which diminishes overall energy density.
In this context, aqueous rechargeable zinc-based batteries (AZBs), which employ metallic zinc as the anode, have garnered considerable attention as promising candidates for large-scale energy storage applications.
However, the ultrahigh solubility of polybromides causes significant shuttle effects, capacity deterioration, and self-discharge, rendering the study of static zinc-bromine batteries still in its infancy.
