Abstract:
The use of quinone/hydroquinone couples in aqueous redox flow batteries is a promising pathway toward cost-effective stationary electrical energy storage [1]-[4] . A major remaining challenge is long-term molecule stability. We previously reported a record capacity-retention rate in a flow battery utilizing substituted viologens and ferrocenes [5]; however, the open-circuit voltage was only about 0.7 V. Here we report a novel quinone-based aqueous redox flow battery with an open circuit voltage of 1.0 V and a capacity-retention rate that sets new records for cycling in the absence of rebalancing procedures. At the time this abstract is being submitted, capacity fade extrapolates to roughly 2%/year while cycling for days at approximately 110 cycles/day. [1] B. Huskinson, M.P. Marshak, C. Suh, S. Er, M.R.
