KGaA. a similar membrane-free hydrogen bromine laminar RFB (Figure 10A) afterwards.94 In virtue of the highly concentrated electroactive materials with fast kinetics, such a RFB achieved a power density up to 0.795 W cm2 with voltage efficiency of 92%. The authors concluded that optimization on the cell architecture, including the cata- lyst composition, media porosity, channel size, and electrode distance, can further enhance the battery performance. An alternative strategy to building a membrane-free RFB is exploiting positive and negative species in two immiscible phases. Cui and coworkers passivated the Li- metal anode in an ether-based electrolyte with LiNO3 additive, and the lithium poly- sulfide solution can be directly adopted as the catholyte with greatly eliminated self- discharge effect.95 An energy density of 108 Wh L1 was demonstrated with a 5 M polysulfide catholyte. Moreover, Yu and coworkers reported a high-power-density Fc-based membrane-free RFB by taking advantage of the superior diffusion and re- action kinetics of the Fc/Fc+ redox couple (Figure 10B).96 It is well evidenced that the shuttle effect has been largely suppressed because of the sluggish reaction between ferrocenium and passivated Li metal. Power and energy density exceeding 1,400 and 40 Wh L1, respectively, can be delivered, and the experimental demo shows a power output high enough to light a 9 3 9 light-emitting diode (LED) array (Fig- ure 10C). In addition to Li anode, Zn was also employed to build the membrane- free RFB, giving the immiscibility between metals and electrolytes. Steingart and Chem 5, 1964–1987, August 8, 2019 1983
