“…We observed that NaCl did not disappear completely in the carbon cathode during repeated cycling, so that the accumulated discharge products increased the impedance of the cathode (Supplementary Figure S3 and S4). It is interesting that a tetrachloroaluminate:SO 2 complex has an intrinsic self-regeneration mechanism1227 which can be utilized to remove residual NaCl from the carbon cathode. When a Na–SO 2 cell was overcharged to above 4.05 V, the recombination reaction took place as like a Li–SO 2 .…”

“…When a Na–SO 2 cell was overcharged to above 4.05 V, the recombination reaction took place as like a Li–SO 2 . According to the proposed overcharging mechanism for a Li–SO 2 system1227, the oxidation of AlCl 4 − produces Cl 2 and AlCl 3 during overcharge. The highly soluble Cl 2 gas dissolves into the electrolyte and reacts with the Na-metal anode to form NaCl, which further reacts with AlCl 3 to regenerate NaAlCl 4 .…”

Sodium rechargeable batteries can be excellent alternatives to replace lithium rechargeable ones because of the high abundance and low cost of sodium; however, there is a need to further improve the battery performance, cost-effectiveness, and safety for practical use. Here we demonstrate a new type of room-temperature and high-energy density sodium rechargeable battery using an SO2-based inorganic molten complex catholyte, which showed a discharge capacity of 153 mAh g−1 based on the mass of catholyte and carbon electrode with an operating voltage of 3 V, good rate capability and excellent cycle performance over 300 cycles. In particular, non-flammability and intrinsic self-regeneration mechanism of the inorganic liquid electrolyte presented here can accelerate the realization of commercialized Na rechargeable battery system with outstanding reliability. Given that high performance and unique properties of Na–SO2 rechargeable battery, it can be another promising candidate for next generation energy storage system.

Lithium anodes passivated by LiCl layers in different types of liquid cathodes (catholytes) based on LiAlCl 4 in SOCl 2 or SO 2 have been studied by means of impedance spectroscopy. The impedance spectra have been fitted with two equivalent circuits using a nonlinear least squares fit program. Information about the ionic conductivity and the structure of the layers has been extracted. A new physical description, which is able to explain the circuit parameters, is proposed. It assumes that the LiCl-layer contains a large number of narrow tunnels and cracks filled with liquid catholyte. It is explained why such tunnels probably are formed, and for a typical case it is shown that tunnels associated with most of the LiCl grain boundaries of the fine crystalline layer near the Li surface are requested in order to explain the impedance response. The LiCl production rate and through this, the growth rate of the LiCl-layer, is limited by the electron conductivity of the layer. Micro-calorimetry data parallel with impedance spectra are used for determination of the electron conductivity of the LiCl-layer.
