Formation of hierarchically ordered structures in conductive polymers to enhance the performances of lithium-ion batteries

Tianyu Zhu et al.

Summary: Electrically conductive polymers with hierarchically ordered structures (HOS) show significant enhancement in charge transport properties and mechanical robustness, making them critical for practical lithium-ion batteries. The conventional design of conductive polymers using bottom-up synthetic approaches and functional group modification has limitations that restrict their scaled synthesis and broad applications. By using simple primary building blocks and thermal processing, we developed conductive polymers with HOS, enabling exceptional cycling performance in lithium-ion batteries.

Quasi-Solid Aqueous Electrolytes for Low-Cost Sustainable Alkali-Metal Batteries

Xianhui Yi et al.

Summary: Aqueous electrolytes are essential for batteries due to their sustainability, greenness, and low cost. However, the reactivity of water molecules with alkali metals limits the use of high-capacity alkali-metal anodes. In this study, water molecules are confined in a carcerand-like network to create quasi-solid aqueous electrolytes (QAEs) that effectively overcome the limitations of free water molecules. The QAEs allow stable operation with alkali-metal anodes, suppressing issues such as dendrite growth, electrode dissolution, and polysulfide shuttle. The research demonstrates long-term cycling and high Coulombic efficiency of alkali-metal cells in a water-based environment, as well as the potential of full metal batteries with remarkable energy density.
