DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/5546178· OSTI ID:5546178
; ; ;

The technical and economic prospects of zinc-bromine batteries employing Nafion/sup R*/ fluorinated ion exchange membranes was evaluated. The applicability and performance limits of a variety of materials and concepts were explored, noval all-carbon electrode structures developed and tested in cells of up to 36 w-hr size, and a system design and cost analysis was performed.
