Description

Omar Alshangiti and co-authors reported in 2024 a stable liquid for a new kind of battery that runs on fluoride ions. Such batteries promise very high energy storage without scarce minerals. The catch is finding a liquid that dissolves fluoride salts without being attacked by them. The team paired a ring-shaped organic salt with a fluoride source and tested the mix.

The liquid held a wide voltage window and carried charge well, with a high salt load for this field. Nuclear magnetic resonance and neutron tests showed fluoride ions held by loose electric pulls and weak hydrogen bonds, not by harsh chemistry. That gentleness explains the mix's stability. The authors say the liquid could serve in high-voltage versions of these batteries.
