  • the present invention relates to the use of quinones in the form of molten salts (ionic liquids) in energy storage applications.
  • a rechargeable electric battery comprising ionic liquid quinones and a method for producing such.
  • Redox batteries work by spontaneously, and simultaneously, performing an oxidation reaction (i.e., loss of electrons (e " )) at one electrode and a reduction reaction (i.e., gain of electrons) at another electrode where the electrons lost/gained flow through a circuit from one electrode to the other.
  • an oxidation reaction i.e., loss of electrons (e " )
  • a reduction reaction i.e., gain of electrons
  • the battery's "trick" is to separate A and C into compartments where the anode and cathode are electronically connected in a circuit (for electron flow) and ionically connected with some type of ion-conducting membrane (e.g. a solid polymer electrolyte (SPE)) which allows positively charged ions (usually H + ) to flow from the anode chamber to the cathode chamber to maintain electroneutrality.

The same types of trials as those performed previously using the PTFE cell were performed. A sample of the results for the oxidation of hydroquinone side of the cell are summarised below. As a comparison of these results with the results shown previously for the PTFE cell indicate as expected the two cells act in the same way.
