Aluminum-ion battery (AIB) has significant merits of low cost, nonflammability, and high capacity of metallic aluminum anode based on three-electron redox property. However, due to the inadequate cathodic performance, especially capacity, high-rate capability, and cycle life, AIB still cannot compete with Li-ion batteries and …
The bottleneck of the lithium-ion battery, as such, has prompted the study of sodium-, potassium-, and aluminum-ion batteries, which have the distinct advantage of abundant resources. Graphene materials as electrodes, on the one hand, can actively take part in the electrochemical reactions.
On the other hand, aluminum batteries (ABs) function based on two separate interfacial reactions in-between anode-electrolyte and cathode-electrolyte. A typical AB comprises of graphite cathode and AlCl 3-ionic liquid (IL) electrolyte that could deliver experimental capacities as high as 100–150 mA h g −1 [9,10].].
