As evidenced by experimental works and modeling, a densely packed stage-1 graphite intercalation compound (GIC) with a stoichiometry of C3.5[Br0.5Cl0.5] is reversibly formed in a water-in-bisalt (WiBS) electrolyte, enabling an outstandingly high specific cathode capacity of 243 mAh g−1 at an average potential of 4.2 V versus Li/Li+. In their recent publication in Nature, Kang Xu, Chunsheng Wang, and co-authors reported for the first time on a novel halogen conversion-intercalation graphite cathode chemistry for the development of high-energy aqueous batteries. As evidenced by experimental works and modeling, a densely packed stage-1 graphite intercalation compound (GIC) with a stoichiometry of C3.5[Br0.5Cl0.5] is reversibly formed in a water-in-bisalt (WiBS) electrolyte, enabling an outstandingly high specific cathode capacity of 243 mAh g−1 at an average potential of 4.2 V versus Li/Li+. The lithium-ion battery (LIB) technology revolutionized energy storage since its market introduction in 1991 and still shows an evolutionary development with continuously increasing specific energy (Wh kg−1) and energy density (Wh L−1). LIBs not only dominate the small format battery market for portable electronic devices but also have been successfully implemented as the technology of choice for electrochemical power sources in electromobility1Schmuch R.

Energy. 2018; 3: 267-278Crossref Scopus (1538) Google Scholar and stationary energy (“grid”) storage. A major focus of future battery research and development lies on the further improvement of the battery key performance indicators (KPIs), in particular to increase the energy content per weight and volume and to decrease cost, which is mandatory to achieve a broad customer acceptance.1Schmuch R. Wagner R. Hörpel G. Placke T. Winter M. Performance and cost of materials for lithium-based rechargeable automotive batteries.Nat. Energy. 2018; 3: 267-278Crossref Scopus (1538) Google Scholar Additionally, a high operational safety needs to be guaranteed and has to go hand in hand with the increase of the energy content. In addition, it is rather clear that there will be further KPIs that need to be considered when designing advanced batteries, which especially include a decreased CO2 footprint of the battery over the whole lifetime and the use of more sustainable or “green” materials, components, and production routes. State-of-the-art LIBs are based on non-aqueous electrolytes, i.e., LiPF6 dissolved in a mixture of carbonate-based solvents, offering the best performance for high-energy LIBs. However, these electrolytes give rise to safety and environmental concerns, as they exhibit intrinsic drawbacks, including flammability, toxicity, and high sensitivity toward moisture. In particular, the undesired combination of high-energy cathode materials, which can release oxygen, and flammable electrolytes as combustibles is considered as a major threat for the large-scale application of LIBs. A suitable strategy to address these safety concerns is the replacement of non-aqueous by aqueous electrolytes, which, however, sets an intrinsic limit to the battery’s practical energy by the narrow electrochemical stability window (ESW) of water (1.23 V). Aqueous LIBs gained significant attention, as Kang Xu, Chuncheng Wang, and colleagues addressed this challenge and made ground-breaking efforts by expanding the ESW of water to >3.0 V when first introducing the concept of the “water-in-salt” electrolyte class (WiSE), based on highly or super-concentrated lithium salts (>21 mol kg−1 LiTFSI).2Suo L.

Furthermore, they coupled this novel graphite cathode chemistry with a graphite anode, protected by a highly fluorinated ether polymer gel,3Yang C. Chen J. Qing T. Fan X. Sun W. von Cresce A.

In 1938, Rüdorff and Hofmann reported for the first time on a dual-graphite rocking chair battery in which HSO4− anions were shuttled between the two graphite electrodes and reversibly intercalated from an aqueous electrolyte based on highly concentrated sulfuric acid.9Rüdorff W. Hofmann U. Über Graphitsalze.Z. Anorg. Allg. Chem. 1938; 238: 1-50Crossref Scopus (247) Google Scholar With this work, they marked a milestone, as this battery system was based on the shuttling mechanism of anions and thus can be regarded as the earliest ancestor of today’s LIB.9Rüdorff W.

Chem. 1938; 238: 1-50Crossref Scopus (247) Google Scholar Even though DGBs offer a relatively high average discharge voltage of up to 4.5 V, the specific capacity of the graphite cathode is limited by the relatively low packing density of complex anions, resulting in capacities < 150 mAh g−1, even for stage-1 GICs, meaning that each graphite interlayer gap is occupied by the guest species.7Placke T.

In contact with the WiBS aqueous gel electrolyte, a hydrated LiBr/LiCl layer is formed at the LBC-G surface (Figure 1), accelerating the halogen’s redox reactions, i.e., the Br− intercalation in a potential range of 4.0–4.2 V versus Li/Li+ and the Cl− intercalation in a potential range of 4.2–4.5 V versus Li/Li+, as observed from the cyclic voltammetry results (Figure 2) and summarized by Equations 3 and 4, respectively. In this two-step redox reaction, a mixed intercalation compound, i.e., Cn[BrxCly], is formed in the second step, while the oxidation of each halogen involves a one-electron transfer and the release of one Li+ to the bulk electrolyte.Cn + x·LiBr ⇌ Cn[Brx] + x·Li+ + x·e− (4.0–4.2 V versus Li/Li+)(Equation 3) Cn[Brx] + y·LiCl ⇌ Cn[BrxCly] + y·Li+ + y·e− (4.2–4.5 V versus Li/Li+)(Equation 4) The authors comprehensively studied the structural properties of the formed GICs and calculated among others the intercalant gallery heights and the nearest in-plane distances of the halogen intercalants. Evidenced by density functional theory (DFT) calculations and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) measurements, they found nearest in-plane distances of 2.4–3.2 Å for the Br-Br or Br-Cl intercalants, which are much shorter than those of alkali metal GICs (e.g., 4.31 Å for Li+-Li+) as well as for large anions (e.g., 9.8 Å for PF6−-PF6−).10Placke T.
