Additive materials for tungsten-molybdenum batteries

Can tungsten sulfides be used in lithium-sulfur batteries?

Besides, tungsten/molybdenum-based 2D materials also play an important role in Li–S batteries. A review paper reports the progress of applications of transition metal sulfides (including WS 2, MoS 2 and so on) in the cathode of lithium-sulfur batteries (Gong et al.).

Can molybdenum be used in aqueous batteries?

In 2010, Liang et al. [ 43] applied MoS 2 to magnesium-ion battery (MIBs), which opens a favorable way for involving other molybdenum-based compounds in the accommodation of monovalent ions (Na+) and multivalent ions (Zn 2+ and Al 3+) for aqueous batteries.

Can wire + arc additive manufacturing be used to produce tungsten components?

Marinelli G, Martina F, Ganguly S, Williams S. Development of wire + arc additive manufacturing for the production of large-scale unalloyed tungsten components. Int J Refract Metal Hard Mater. 2019;82:329.

How to address electrochemical property issues of molybdenum-based materials?

The strategic methods to address the electrochemical property issues (poor conductivity, slow kinetics, electrode dissolution, and narrow working window) of molybdenum-based materials are highlighted, including the introduction of oxygen/sulfur vacancy, interlayer spacing tuning, a substrate coating, and electrolyte formulation, as shown in Fig. 3.

Can TMD anodes be used in alkali metal ion batteries?

It is evident that in the role of the anode, MoS 2 and MoSe 2 found enormous applications in alkali metal ion batteries such as LIB, SIB and KIB. The studies also point out that TMD anodes are still under investigation for MIB, ZIB, etc. The computational studies validate the future of TMD anodes in other batteries.

Can Mos 2 / WS 2 be used as a battery anode?

The work proposed by Chen et al. presented the synthesis and application of MoS 2 /WS 2 composite containing nitrogen-doped graphene (NG) (MWG) as the anode for LIB’s . The poor electronic conductivity of MoS 2 adversely affects the rate performance of batteries.
