To break through the technical bottleneck of existing batteries, liquid metal batteries (LMBs) have been proposed as a new electrochemical energy storage technology in large-scale energy storage [ 7, 8 ].
In these batteries, the states of the electrode highly affect the performance and manufacturing process of the battery, and therefore leverage the price of the battery. A battery with liquid metal electrodes is easy to scale up and has a low cost and long cycle life.
With an intrinsic dendrite-free feature, high rate capability, facile cell fabrication and use of earth-abundance materials, liquid metal batteries (LMBs) are regarded as a promising solution to grid-scale stationary energy storage.
Lithium metal is considered to be the ideal anode material in electrochemical energy storage batteries because it has the lowest operating voltage (0 V vs Li/Li +) and ultrahigh theoretical capacity (3860 mAh/g).
One representative group is the family of rechargeable liquid metal batteries, which were initially exploited with a view to implementing intermittent energy sources due to their specific benefits including their ultrafast electrode charge-transfer kinetics and their ability to resist microstructural electrode degradation.
Although conventional liquid metal batteries require high temperatures to liquify electrodes, and maintain the high conductivity of molten salt electrolytes, the degrees of electrochemical irreversibility induced by their corrosive active components emerged as a drawback.
