Article Synopsis
- High-capacity, stable cathode materials for rechargeable Aluminum-ion batteries (AIBs) are a significant research challenge, with Al intercalation showing three times the capacity compared to AlCl.
- The study investigates Al insertion into 3-MoS using advanced calculations, revealing that Al occupies various interlayer positions simultaneously, contrasting with the single-layer insertion seen in graphite with AlCl.
- Findings suggest that 3-MoS can stabilize Al insertion with a maximum theoretical capacity of 502.30 mAg h and an intercalation voltage range of 0.75-0.96 V, marking it as a promising candidate for AIBs.
Aqueous aluminum ion batteries (AAIBs) have received growing attention because of their low cost, safe operation, eco-friendliness, and high theoretical capacity. However, one of the biggest challenges for AAIBs is the poor reversibility due to the presence of an oxide layer and the accompanying hydrogen evolution reaction. Herein, we develop a strongly hydrolyzed/polymerized aluminum-iron hybrid electrolyte to improve the electrochemical behavior of AAIBs.
