Molecular Engineering Strategies for Symmetric Aqueous
Organic Redox Flow Batteries
Posted on 2020-02-12 - 20:27
Symmetric
aqueous organic redox flow batteries (RFBs) are potentially
an inexpensive, durable, and safe energy storage technology. Unlike
normal asymmetric flow batteries, they are based on electrolytes that
exist in at least three oxidation states and can undergo a minimum
of two distinct redox processes. We compute the redox potentials of
selected electrolytes, with the intent to understand how the interaction
between the redox units affects the potentials. We find that electronic
interaction between redox units and intramolecular hydrogen bonding
can be exploited to tune the difference between the redox potentials,
i.e., the theoretical voltage of the battery. The redox potentials
can be further fine-tuned in either direction by adding substituents.
Starting from these observations, we formulate a set of rules that
will help in finding ideal candidates for symmetric RFBs.
