Abstract

Rechargeable aluminum batteries composed of an aluminum anode, an expanded graphite cathode, and an inorganic chloroaluminate ionic liquid electrolyte show remarkably improved capacity, reversibility, and rate capability at 393 K compared to cells based on a common organic salt based ionic liquid, AlCl₃–1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride.
