Lithium-ion batteries have been commercialised and are heavily relied upon, however, the scarcity of lithium resources increases the production cost and hinders further application. Additionally, the toxic and flammable electrolyte brings many potential safety hazards including environmental pollution. Looking for low-cost, safe, and environmentally friendly alternatives to LIBs has become a valuable research direction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe modification of batteries is focused on the anode, the cathode and electrolyte. Globally, researchers have moved onto new rechargeable batteries based on multivalent metal ions which have been extensively studied, including K\u003csup\u003e+\u003c\/sup\u003e, Ca\u003csup\u003e2+\u003c\/sup\u003e, Mg\u003csup\u003e2+\u003c\/sup\u003e and Al\u003csup\u003e3+\u003c\/sup\u003e. However, the electrolyte is a very important component of a battery as its physical and chemical properties directly affect the electrochemical performance and energy storage mechanism.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFinding and selecting an appropriate electrolyte system is a crucial factor that must be taken into account to make these post-lithium-ion batteries commercially viable. Until now, it has been challenging to develop a suitable electrolyte with a wide electrochemical stability window and stable anode interface.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book covers all the major ion-battery groups and their electrolytes, examining their performance and suitability in different solvents: aqueous, non-aqueous, solid gel and polymer.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt is suitable for all levels of students and researchers who want to understand the fundamentals and future challenges of developing electrolytes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jianmin Ma, Zhouguang Lu, Yurong Ren\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1839167378\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781839167379\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Royal Society of Chemistry\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/26\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 334\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.22w x 0.94d","brand":"Jianmin Ma","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44121507692799,"sku":"9781839167379","price":235.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7447437e-ba37-4b78-9d17-4b8b27e50e8a.jpg?v=1687420163","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/rechargeable-battery-electrolytes-jianmin-ma-9781839167379","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
