Room Temperature High Energy Density Sodium-Sulfur Batteries

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The project aims to boost room temperature sodium sulfur batteries (RT-NaSBs) with low cost and high energy density based on the insight understanding of “structure (atomic and electronic levels) - performance” relationship between sodium polysulfides, electrolytes, and electrocatalysts, which is a critical but rarely understood in developing a broader family of sulfur redox reaction electrocatalysts. The mechanisms discovered and electrocatalytic materials rationally designed in this project will advance knowledge in fundamental science and engineering to strengthen national research capacity. The anticipated goal of the project is bringing RT-NaSBs from lab to fab, elevating Australia’s standing in Advanced Manufacturing priority.
