Rechargeable aluminum batteries with aluminum metal as a negative electrode have attracted wide attention due to the aluminum abundance, its high theoretical capacity and stability under ambient conditions.
Among the potential cathode materials, sulfur has become an important candidate material for aluminum-ion batteries cause of its considerable specific capacity. Two-dimensional materials are currently potential candidates as electrodes from labscale experiments to possible pragmatic theoretical studies.
Aluminum–sulfur batteries have a theoretical energy density comparable to lithium–sulfur batteries, whereas aluminum is the most abundant metal in the Earth’s crust and the least expensive metallic anode material to date.
Aluminum batteries: Aluminum metal presents appealing properties as anode material for aluminum batteries. However, its initial surface properties are underappreciated. The performance of the device is greatly influenced by the purity, surface finishing and hardness of the aluminum metal.
