This manuscript explores the diverse and evolving landscape of advanced ceramics in energy storage applications. With a focus on addressing the pressing demands of energy storage technologies, the article encompasses an analysis of various types of advanced ceramics utilized in batteries, supercapacitors, and other emerging energy storage systems.
For electrostatic energy storage ceramics, the pursuit of simultaneously high polarization, high breakdown strength and low dielectric loss is crucial. As a typical ferroelectric ceramic, the strong polarization of TTBs BSN is usually accompanied with a deteriorated breakdown strength.
Ceramics possess excellent thermal stability and can withstand high temperatures without degradation. This property makes them suitable for high-temperature energy storage applications, such as molten salt thermal energy storage systems used in concentrated solar power (CSP) plants .
Advanced ceramic materials like barium titanate (BaTiO3) and lead zirconate titanate (PZT) exhibit high dielectric constants, allowing for the storage of large amounts of electrical energy . Ceramics can also offer high breakdown strength and low dielectric losses, contributing to the efficiency of capacitive energy storage devices.
Nanoceramics, which consist of ceramic nanoparticles or nanocomposites, can offer unique properties that are advantageous for energy storage applications. For instance, nanoceramic materials can exhibit improved mechanical strength, enhanced surface area, and tailored electrical or thermal properties compared to their bulk counterparts .
Ceramics with high surface area, gas permeability, and selectivity enable sensitive and selective detection of hydrogen gas, contributing to safety and efficiency in hydrogen handling and storage.
