Rechargeable aluminum batteries utilizing a chloroaluminate inorganic ionic liquid electrolyte

Abstract

Rechargeable aluminum batteries composed of an aluminum anode, an expanded graphite cathode, and an inorganic chloroaluminate ionic liquid electrolyte show remarkably improved capacity, reversibility, and rate capability at 393 K compared to cells based on a common organic salt based ionic liquid, AlCl3–1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride.
