  1. Could we create a Zn-Br flow battery using Nicotinamide?

    Zinc bromide flow batteries have been researched very extensively during the past 30 years. There are many advantages to this chemistry, very high potential (~1.8V), high efficiencies, symmetric electrolyte and low reagent costs. Nonetheless, the disadvantages are also huge: zinc dendrites, hydrogen evolution, bromine corrosion, etc. Despite all the development, a lot of these disadvantages remain insurmountable. A recent nature paper has disrupted the field by using sulfamate ions as a […]
