GIST Researchers Develop Novel Electrode for Improving Flowless Zinc-Bromine Battery

Researchers developed a novel electrode that effectively suppresses the harmful self-discharge phenomenon in flowless zinc-bromine batteries
July 19, 2024
The flowless zinc-bromine battery (FLZBB) is a promising alternative to flammable lithium-ion batteries due to its use of non-flammable electrolytes. However, it suffers from self-discharge due to the crossover of active materials, generated at the positive graphite felt (GF) electrode, to the negative electrode, significantly affecting performance. Now, researchers have developed a novel nitrogen-doped mesoporous carbon-coated GF electrode that effectively suppresses self-discharge. This breakthrough can lead to practical applications of FLZBB in energy storage systems.
Due to rising environmental concerns, global energy production is shifting from fossil fuels to sustainable and renewable energy systems such … Read More → "GIST Researchers Develop Novel Electrode for Improving Flowless Zinc-Bromine Battery"
