Electrode reactions in zinc electrolysis
… Pure platinum and platinum coated titanium anodes were used with an aluminum cathode. Platinum anodes were not inert at certain combinations of temperature and current density, and platinum acted as a low overvoltage impurity causing resolution of the cathode deposit. Orientation of the zinc …

Enabling multi-cation electrolyte usage in LMBs for lower cost and operating temperature
Alloy anodes form a promising path to the use of multi-cation electrolytes by increasing chemical stability. In this study, a lithium-magnesium alloy anode was developed such that lower cost and lower melting temperature multi-cation electrolytes could be incorporated in liquid metal batteries …

Understanding and Improving Zinc Anodes for High-Energy Rechargeable Alkaline Batteries
… are four reasons for irreversibility of zinc anodes in alkaline electrolytes. This thesis comprises three parts: material, mechanism, and device. From the aspect of material, four types of zinc anodes were designed and synthesized to overcome above issues and improve their reversibility. These …

Tailoring the electrochemical properties of catholytes for solid-state sodium batteries
… stability with layered-oxide cathodes and Na–Sn alloy anodes, supported by analysis of gas evolution and interfacial degradation pathways through online electrochemical mass spectrometry and post-mortem microscopy. The second part explores low-cost aluminum halide-based catholytes with tunable …

Ab Initio Anode Materials Discovery for Li- and Na-Ion Batteries
… phosphide systems in the context of phosphorus anodes as candidates for LIBs and NIBs. The work reveals new Li-P and Na-P phases, some of which can be used to better interpret previous experimental results. By combining AIRSS searches with a high-throughput screening search from structures in …

Diffusional lithium trapping as a failure mechanism of aluminum foil anodes in lithium-ion batteries
… capacity degradation of aluminum foil anodes during electrochemical cycling also occurs due to diffusional lithium trapping. Scanning electron microscopy of cross-sectioned, cycled foils in the delithiated state reveals large regions of β-LiAl that are passivated by a surface layer of …
