View moreIn this review, we summarize the application of molybdenum-based materials in various kinds of aqueous batteries, which begins with LIBs and SIBs and then extends to multivalent ion batteries such as ZIBs and AIBs. Some new energy storage systems, such as ammonium-ion batteries, are also mentioned.
Recently, molybdenum-based (Mo-based) catalytic materials are widely used as sulfur host materials, modified separators, and interlayers for Li–S batteries. They include the Mo sulfides, diselenides, carbides, nitrides, oxides, phosphides, borides, and metal/single atoms/clusters.
Compared with typical carbon-based materials, molybdenum-based materials own a much higher specific capacitance, taking advantages of their multiple oxidation states that are in favor of fast charge storage [ 9, 10 ], which are considered as promising electrode candidates for aqueous batteries.
To address these challenges, varieties of catalytic materials have been exploited to prevent the shuttle effect and accelerate the LiPSs conversion. Recently, molybdenum-based (Mo-based) catalytic materials are widely used as sulfur host materials, modified separators, and interlayers for Li–S batteries.
Among all candidates, molybdenum-based (Mo-based) materials are highly preferred for their tunable crystal structure, adjustable composition, variable valence of Mo centers, and strong interactions with soluble LiPSs.
Conclusion and perspectives We have comprehensively summarized the latest development of molybdenum oxides and molybdenum sulfides for aqueous rechargeable batteries. At present, the application of molybdenum-based materials in aqueous batteries is still in its infancy, and there are only few works reported recently.
