Abstract:Efforts to reduce the cost of long-duration energy storage systems have drawn increased interest in all-iron redox flow battery systems due to their inexpensive electrolytes. Previous studies have shown that the kinetics of the positive electrode for the Fe(II, III) reaction in these systems are sluggish on carbon surfaces and require significant overpotentials. Here, we identify how changes to the electrode surface and electrolyte composition can influence the electrochemical rate constants to reduce required… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
