Can phosphorus be used in energy storage?

Phosphorus in energy storage has received widespread attention in recent years. Both the high specific capacity and ion mobility of phosphorus may lead to a breakthrough in energy storage materials. Black phosphorus, an allotrope of phosphorus, has a sheet-like structure similar to graphite.

Why is phosphorus important?

Phosphorus is an essential ingredient in thousands of products, including herbicides, lithium-ion batteries, and even soft drinks. Most of this phosphorus comes from an energy-intensive process that contributes significantly to global carbon emissions.

Is black phosphorus used in ion batteries?

In addition, black phosphorus is also used in other ion batteries. A PIB is a new type of high-voltage secondary battery that could be used as a supplement or a substitute for LIBs in some fields. Since 2015, there have been reports of positive and negative materials for potassium batteries and complete battery research [ 93, 94, 95, 96, 97 ].

Can black phosphorus be used for energy storage?

Black phosphorus is a potential candidate material for next-generation energy storage devices and has attracted tremendous interest because of its advantageous structural and electrochemical properties, including its large theoretical capacity, high carrier mobility, and low redox potential.
