| dc.description.abstract | Organic redox flow batteries have attracted a lot of interests both in academics and industries.
Accordingly, many organic materials and chemistries have been studied, providing a solid foundation
for development of low-cost organic flow batteries. However, capacity loss/fade as a result of organic
molecule decomposition/degradation is a major hindrance towards further advancement of this promising,
sustainable and large-scale energy storage technology. Understanding the causes of decomposition as
well as its mechanism is thus necessary to unravel this major challenge. Therefore, this perspective/views
focus on highlighting the different methods that can be employed for decomposition assessment of
organic molecules in flow battery systems. This will help in engineering and designing stable electroactive
organic molecule to enable development of durable and long cycle life redox flow battery. | en_US |
