Engineering materials that can store electrical energy in structural load paths revolutionize lightweight design across transport modes. Stiff and strong batteries use solid‐state electrolytes resilient electrodes separators are generally lacking. Herein, a battery composite with unprecedented multifunctional performance is demonstrated, featuring an density of 24 Wh kg −1 elastic modulus 25 GPa tensile strength exceeding 300 MPa. The made from constituents, where reinforcing carbon fibers...
In electric transportation there is an inherent need to store electrical energy while maintaining a low vehicle weight. One way decrease the weight of structure use composite materials. However, storage in today's systems contributes large portion total vehicle. Structural batteries have been suggested as possible route reduce this A structural battery material that carries mechanical loads and simultaneously stores can be realized using carbon fibers both primary load carrying active...
Carbon fibres (CFs), originally made for use in structural composites, have also been demonstrated as high capacity Li-ion battery negative electrodes. Consequently, CFs can be used electrodes; simultaneously carrying mechanical load and storing electrical energy multifunctional batteries. To date, all CF microstructural designs generated to realise a targeted property, e.g. strength or stiffness, based on profound understanding of the relationship between graphitic microstructure...
Abstract Multifunctional materials facilitate lightweight and slender structural solutions for numerous applications. In transportation, construction that can act as a battery, store electrical energy, will contribute to realization of highly energy efficient vehicles aircraft. Herein, multicell battery composite laminate, with three state‐of‐the‐art cells connected in series is demonstrated.

Multifunctional materials offer a possibility to create lighter and more resource‐efficient products thereby improve energy efficiency. Structural battery composites are one type of such multifunctional material with potential massless storage for electric vehicles aircraft. Although have been demonstrated, their performance level consistency must be improved. Also, the cell dimensions need increased. Herein, robust manufacturing procedure is developed structural composite cells repeatedly...
Most products today have several functions, but these are achieved by integrating different monofunctional devices and/or materials in a system. Having functions simultaneously one single material has many potential advantages, such as structural that can also store energy, self-sensing or self-healing capability any other physical function. This would lead mass and resource savings, being more energy efficient thus sustainable. paper presents mini review on how carbon fibres be used for...
Abstract Structural batteries refer to the multifunctional device capable of both storing electrical energy and bearing mechanical loads concurrently. In this context, carbon fibers emerge as a compelling choice material serve dual purpose by providing stiffness strength battery. Previous investigation has demonstrated proof‐of‐concept functional positive electrodes against metallic lithium in structural battery electrolyte.

Abstract Multifunctional structural batteries are of high and emerging interest in a wide variety high‐strength lightweight applications. Structural typically use pristine carbon fiber as the negative electrode, functionalized positive mechanically robust lithium‐ion transporting electrolyte. However, electrochemical cycling fibre‐based electrodes is still limited to tests liquid electrolytes, which does not allow for introduction multifunctionality real terms. To overcome these limitations,...
Carbon fibres (CF) have the potential to serve as versatile and multifunctional conductive electrodes within concept of "structural batteries". These batteries possess unique ability both store electrical energy bear mechanical loads without requiring extra current collectors. However, numerous challenges remain on path commercializing structural batteries.

Multifunctional composites which can fulfil more than one role within a system have attracted considerable interest. This work focusses on structural supercapacitors simultaneously carry mechanical load whilst storing/delivering electrical energy. Critical properties (in-plane shear and in-plane compression performance) of two monofunctional four multifunctional materials were characterised, gave an insight into the relationships between these properties, microstructures fracture processes....
