A metal-free all-organic ammonium-ion battery with low-temperature applications

Abstract

Current commercial batteries are mainly metal-based, with metal elements in charge carriers and/or electrode materials, which poses potential economic and environmental concerns due to the heavy use of nonrenewable metals....

Ammonium-ion energy storage devices for real-life deployment: storage mechanism, electrode design and system integration

“…Coupling the PPy cathode with the PANI anode and the NH 4 Ac WiS electrolyte creates a cell that can operate at low temperatures. 154 Zhang et al assembled a thermally rechargeable ammonium ion capacitor (TAIC) using graphene-polyimide (rGO-PI) condensed from 1,4,5,8-naphthalenetetracarboxylic acid dianhydride and ethylenediamine as a cold electrode and nitrogen-doped hollow carbon nanofibres as a hot electrode, which can directly convert waste heat into electricity. 155…”
