Abstract
- • The PTC-S as anode has an outstanding performance in 0.5 M LiCl + 0.5 M MgCl 2 aqueous solution. • The PTC-S exhibits a good rate ability and cycling stability. • PTC-S‖LiMn 2 O 4 has a high capacity and excellent cycling stability. Aqueous batteries are appealing for large-scale storage applications, due to their high safety level, low cost, and excellent durability. In this study, we reported a new anode material, namely sulfur perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylate (PTC-S), which is more stable than other electrode materials used in aqueous Mg-Li ion batteries. When PTC-S is used as the anode in 0.5 M MgCl 2 + 0.5 M LiCl with a current density of 50 mA g−1, the discharge specific capacity is 287.3 mAh g−1 at the initial cycle and the capacity retention rate is still close to 100% at over 1000 cycles. The monomer structural material conjugated with bifunctional groups can provide the space for the intercalation of Mg2+ and Li+ at the same time, shorten the ion transmission path and accelerate the transmission speed of metal ions in the electrode. In order to develop aqueous battery as quickly as possible, LiMn 2 O 4 and PTC-S are used as cathode and anode materials, respectively, in a dual-ion salt aqueous battery. The PTC-S‖LiMn 2 O 4 battery exhibits a high capacity and an excellent cycling stability performance in aqueous Mg-Li ion battery. The battery has a high capacity performance of 240.0 mAh g−1 at a voltage ranging from 0.0 V to 1.8 V, as well as a high specific energy density of 172.8 Wh kg−1 and remarkable cycling stability. PTC-S in 0.5 M MgCl 2 electrolyte has a current density of 100 mA g−1, a specific discharge capacity of 203 mAh g−1 and a first-cycle Coulomb efficiency close to 100%. Under the same test conditions, the discharge specific capacity is higher than that of the perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic dihydride (PTCI) electrode (101 mAh g−1), and the capacity retention rate is increased by 30.4%.
