4 QUATERNARY AMMONIUM HALIDES WITH ETHER FUNCTIONAL GROUPS FOR USE AS BATTERY ELECTROLYTES

摘要

The present invention relates to an electrolyte solution and a flow cell battery. The electrolyte solution generally comprises an electrolyte solution including one or more of the series A quat halides. The flow cell battery includes the electrolyte solution including one or more of the series A quat halides. By using a specific type of ether-containing quat designated as series A quat with high solubility and low haze, a mixture having increased solubility and reduced free bromine properties compared to other quats can be provided.
