Abstract
Liquid metal batteries (LMB) have the potential to be ideal grid-scale storage batteries; they maintain their performance and exhibit high efficiencies because they do not structurally degrade like lithium-ion batteries. While current commercial LMBs operate at temperatures above 500°C, low temperature LMBs are more attractive because they experience less corrosion of structural components and require less external heating for operation. In this work, we will detail a sodium – mercury battery with a NaSICON solid state electrolyte that operates at 110 °C. Described will be the manufacturing of the solid-state electrolyte, assembly of the full cell, and performance.
