Electrochemical Performance of Mixed Redox-Active Organic Molecules in Redox Flow Batteries
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Designing electrolytes based on mixture of different organic redox active molecules brings the opportunity of enhancing the volumetric energy density of flow batteries and removes the requirement of high solubility for individual organic species in the mixture. In the present work, we conduct computational and experimental analysis to investigate the electrochemical performance of mixed redox-active organic molecules. A zero-dimensional transient model is employed to investigate the changes in the half-cell potential and the concentrations and partial currents of individual redox reactions in a mixture of organic molecules over time. The model demonstrates the effects of individual properties of species such as kinetic rate constants, mass transfer coefficients, concentration ratios and standard redox potentials and reports the effect of energy-losing homogenous chemical redox reaction on the voltage efficiency and concentration ratios of the mixed species. Pairs of anthraquinone negolyte species were selected for an experimental case study. A mixture of 2,6-N-TSAQ and 2,6-DHAQ showed 40% increase in the volumetric energy density compared to the performance of 2,6-DHAQ alone. Based on the results of the experimental and computational analysis, we propose guidelines for the design of suitable mixed redox-active organic species.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
