There are three main components of a battery: two terminals made of different chemicals (typically metals), the anode and the cathode; and the electrolyte, which separates these terminals. The electrolyte is a chemical medium that allows the flow of electrical charge between the cathode and anode.
This type of batteries is commonly referred to as “structural batteries”. Two general methods have been explored to develop structural batteries: (1) integrating batteries with light and strong external reinforcements, and (2) introducing multifunctional materials as battery components to make energy storage devices themselves structurally robust.
For structural batteries, the solid nature indicates that they can enhance not only the tensile and compressive properties of a battery, but also load-transfer between different layers and thus improve flexural properties.
In principle, a battery seems to be a simple device since it just requires three basic components – two electrodes and an electrolyte – in contact with each other. However, only the control of the interplay of these components as well as their dynamics, in particular the chemical reactions, can yield a high-performance system.
To implement structural batteries in systems such as vehicles, several key points must be satisfied first, including mechanical and electrochemical performance, safety, and costs, as summarized in Fig. 8. In this section, these points will be briefly discussed, covering current challenges and future development directions. Figure 8.
The material development can help enhance the intrinsic mechanical properties of batteries for structural applications but require careful designs so that electrochemical performance is not compromised. In this review, we target to provide a comprehensive summary of recent developments in structural batteries and our perspectives.
