Abstract

A well-defined block copolymer was applied in a semi-organic polymer hybrid-flow battery (pHFB). A 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidinyl-N-oxyl (TEMPO) containing polymer was utilised as cathode active material. Micellar structures of the active material were achieved by utilising a diblock copolymer composed of a polar poly(TEMPO methacrylate) (PTMA) and an unpolar poly(styrene) (PS) block, which enables the formation of core-corona micelles in organic carbonates. The synthesised PTMA-b-PS was electrochemically investigated and subsequently utilised as catholyte in polymer/Zn pHFBs. The constructed flow batteries feature an excellent cycling stability of 1000 consecutive charge/discharge cycles with 95% retention of initial discharge capacity and a stable voltage range of 2 V. Further, the charging process leads to slight changes in the micellar structure combined with an increased solubility.
