  • Advanced intermediate temperature sodium–Nickel Chloride batteries with ultra-high energy density
    Nature Communications, 2016
    Co-Authors: Guosheng Li, Jin Y. Kim, Hee Jung Chang, Xiaochuan Lu, Kerry D Meinhardt, Nathan L Canfield, Vincent L. Sprenkle
    Abstract:

    Sodium-metal halide batteries have been considered as one of the more attractive technologies for stationary electrical energy storage, however, they are not used for broader applications despite their relatively well-known redox system. One of the roadblocks hindering market penetration is the high-operating temperature. Here we demonstrate that planar sodium–Nickel Chloride batteries can be operated at an intermediate temperature of 190 °C with ultra-high energy density. A specific energy density of 350 Wh kg^−1, higher than that of conventional tubular sodium–Nickel Chloride batteries (280 °C), is obtained for planar sodium–Nickel Chloride batteries operated at 190 °C over a long-term cell test (1,000 cycles), and it attributed to the slower particle growth of the cathode materials at the lower operating temperature. Results reported here demonstrate that planar sodium–Nickel Chloride batteries operated at an intermediate temperature could greatly benefit this traditional energy storage technology by improving battery energy density, cycle life and reducing material costs.Sodium metal halide batteries are attractive technologies for stationary electrical energy storage. Here, the authors report that planar sodium-Nickel Chloride batteries operated at an intermediate temperature of 190 °C display larger energy densities than tubular batteries operated at higher temperatures.

  • PERFORMANCE DATA FROM AN IMPROVED SODIUM/Nickel Chloride CELL
    SAE transactions, 1991
    Co-Authors: J.l. Sudworth, H. Böhm
    Abstract:

    Sodium Nickel Chloride batteries have been tested in electric cars over the past three years. Although the performance of the cars was satisfactory, reliability was inadequate and it became apparent that the cells needed to tolerate repeated discharges to 100% depth of discharge. A new cell design with an improved sodium electrode was developed and tests with 26 Volt modules of these cells have shown that it will tolerate hundreds of cycles to 100% depth of discharge. The capacity and resistance stability of the new cell design are described and the feasibility of rapid charging is discussed. (A) For the covering abstract see IRRD 860570.

  • Low temperature performance of sodium–Nickel Chloride batteries with NaSICON solid electrolyte
    Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry, 2015
    Co-Authors: Seung-hwan Jo, Alexis Eccleston, Sai Bhavaraju, Sang Ook Kang
    Abstract:

    Abstract A new type of sodium–Nickel Chloride batteries using NaSICON solid electrolytes (Na 1 + x Zr 2 Si x P 3 − x O 12 ) was successfully investigated at much lower operation temperature of 195 °C compared with that of conventional Zebra batteries adapting same electrochemistry. The gradual phase transition in NaSICON from monoclinic to rhombohedral was perceived at 100–180 °C by high temperature XRD investigation. From symmetrical Na/NaSICON/Na cell test, the abrupt increase of cell resistance was observed at 177–180 °C, which reveals the change of ionic conduction mechanism in NaSICON solid electrolytes due to phase transformation. The sintered NaSICON solid electrolytes exhibit full densified morphology but somewhat lower average flexural strength of ~ 98 MPa compared with that reported for the β″-Alumina solid electrolytes commercially available. The low temperature electrochemical performances of sodium–Nickel Chloride batteries were compared by using NaSICON and β″-Alumina solid electrolytes at 195 °C. The lower internal resistances of the cell using NaSICON were confirmed by impedance spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry tests. Also proto-type cell tests revealed the clear advantages of NaSICON cell (N-Cell) over β″-Alumina cell (β-Cell) at low temperature performances below 200 °C due to high Na + ionic conductivity.
