Al-Air Batteries: Fundamental Thermodynamic Limitations from First Principles Theory

TL;DR: A detailed thermodynamic study of the Al-air battery using density functional theory suggests that the maximum open-circuit potential of theAl anode is only -1.87 V versus the standard hydrogen electrode at pH 14.6 instead of the traditionally assumed -2.34 V and that large Tafel slopes are inherent in the electrochemistry.

Paper-based microfluidic aluminum–air batteries: toward next-generation miniaturized power supply

TL;DR: For the first time, paper-based microfluidic concept can be employed to fabricate high-performing aluminum-air batteries, which entails the use of a thin sheet of fibrous capillary paper sandwiched between an aluminum foil anode and a catalyst coated graphite foil cathode without using any costly air electrode or external pump device for fluid transport.
