AI Article Synopsis

  • Multivalent batteries, particularly using polytriphenylamine (PTPAn) composites, show great potential for sustainable energy storage through efficient anion storage.
  • The PTPAn cathode displays impressive performance in magnesium and calcium systems, achieving high cell voltages over 3 V, with significant power and energy densities.
  • With the addition of a calcium-tin (Ca-Sn) alloy anode, these batteries can last for 3000 cycles while maintaining 60% capacity retention, indicating a promising future for divalent ion batteries.

Article Abstract

Multivalent batteries show promising prospects for next-generation sustainable energy storage applications. Herein, we report a polytriphenylamine (PTPAn) composite cathode capable of highly reversible storage of tetrakis(hexafluoroisopropyloxy) borate [B(hfip) ] anions in both Magnesium (Mg) and calcium (Ca) battery systems. Spectroscopic and computational studies reveal the redox reaction mechanism of the PTPAn cathode material. The Mg and Ca cells exhibit a cell voltage >3 V, a high-power density of ∼∼3000 W kg and a high-energy density of ∼∼300 Wh kg , respectively. Moreover, the combination of the PTPAn cathode with a calcium-tin (Ca-Sn) alloy anode could enable a long battery-life of 3000 cycles with a capacity retention of 60 %. The anion storage chemistry associated with dual-ion electrochemical concept demonstrates a new feasible pathway towards high-performance divalent ion batteries.
