Powder extrusion molding is used to fabricate ceramic LiFePO4 layers as solid boosters for a semisolid redox flow battery. Material with different porosity and dimensions can be obtained through partial decomposition and complete removal of the binder, followed by sintering. The binderless materials exhibit faster reaction rates and higher degrees of oxidation, showing better performance.
Powder extrusion molding is proposed to fabricate ceramic LiFePO4 layers (0.5-1.0 mm thickness) as solid booster for ferricyanide electrolyte in semisolid redox flow battery. In some extruded layers, the binder is partially decomposed, while in others it is completely removed and, afterwards, the material is sintered, so materials with different porosity and dimensions are obtained. After characterizing the materials, the kinetics for the reaction with ferricyanide is evaluated, being the binderless materials the ones which react faster and reach larger degrees of oxidation. For the material with 1.0 mm thick comparable results to the ones already published are obtained (69% capacity for LiFePO4 compared to the theoretical value). In the case of the 0.5 mm thick sintered solid, an outstanding performance is achieved, reaching almost the theoretical capacity (94%) with a very high coulombic efficiency (> 99%) at 1 mA cm(-2), results that were only obtained at much lower current densities in previous works.
