This technology involves immobilizing the amine group of a naphthoquinone derivative (e.g., DANQ) onto the carboxyl group of a gas diffusion layer (GDL) via peptide bonding. This suppresses the dissolution of the organic active material into the electrolyte and facilitates rapid electron and lithium-ion transport through a low bandgap (approximately 2.7 eV).
Conventional quinone-based organic cathode materials have faced practical limitations due to rapid capacity degradation caused by high solubility in liquid electrolytes, low electrical conductivity, and slow redox kinetics.
By synthesizing 2,3-diamino-1,4-naphthoquinone (DANQ) and immobilizing it onto the surface of a carboxyl-modified porous gas diffusion layer (GDL-COOH) via peptide bonding, this technology maximizes structural stability and electrochemical reversibility, thereby enhancing material competitiveness in the secondary battery electrolyte sector.
