General description
Aluminum chloride is a white crystalline solid slightly soluble in benzene. Its Lewis acidity and chemical reactivity make it a promising candidate for catalyzing various reactions within fuel cells, solar cells and batteries contributing to enhanced efficiency and performance.
Application
Aluminum chloride can be used:
- To prepare room temperature ionic liquid electrolyte to fabricate high performance Al-graphene battery.
- As an electrolyte component for aluminum-ion batteries.
- As a precursor to prepare nanocomposite catalyst for electrochemical Friedel-Craft reaction.
Features and Benefits
The vapor-phase co-reductions with other metal halides by hydrogen results in finely divided intermetallics with applications as structural materials or compounds with useful thermoelectric, magnetic, and oxidation-resistance properties. Aluminum nitride can be synthesized from the elemnts with AlCl3 added to help facilitate crystallization.
