Abstract:The development of inexpensive charge carriers with long-term stability is critical to increase the economic viability of redox flow batteries (RFBs). Herein, we compare the performance metrics of a series of synthesized or commercially available inexpensive phthalocyanine metal (PcM) charge carriers with varying metal-or ligand-based substitution patterns. All systems were charged−discharged as slurries in conjunction with a conductive heterogeneous carbon source, Ketjenblack (KB). The synthesized, peripheral… Show more
