A high-rate and high-efficiency molten-salt sodium–oxygen battery
Abstract
A molten-salt Na–O2 battery featuring a liquid Na negative electrode and Ni positive electrode was found to form Na2O2 on discharge, enabled by nitrate redox where NO3− is reduced to Na2O and NO2−, then reactions with O2 produce Na2O2 and reform NO3−.
