5. Conclusions In this paper, we introduced multifunctional energy storage composites (MESCs), a novel form of structurally-integrated batteries fabricated in a unique material vertical integration process.
Multifunctional structural batteries based on carbon fiber-reinforced polymer composites are fabricated that can bear mechanical loads and act as electrochemical energy storage devices simultaneously.
Specifically, multifunctional composites within structural batteries can serve the dual roles of functional composite electrodes for charge storage and structural composites for mechanical load-bearing.
Capacity and energy density of the structural batteries are measured using fifth cycle of the CVs and are reported in table 2. Fifth cycle was selected in order to ensure the stabilized charging and discharging of structural lithium ion batteries. CV of both structural batteries exhibit quasi-rectangular loops.
Recently, efforts have demonstrated a structural ultrabattery platform, but the energy density relative to all active and packaging materials remains limited to ~1 Wh/kg due to the use of heavy laminate materials and a mostly air-stable but lower energy density Ni-Fe battery chemistry .
Utilizing structural batteries in an electric vehicle offers a significant advantage of enhancing energy storage performance at cell- or system-level. If the structural battery serves as the vehicle's structure, the overall weight of the system decreases, resulting in improved energy storage performance (Figure 1B).
