Feasibility of AlCl3-based acetamide and urea deep-eutectic solvents as well as EMImCl ionic liquid as electrolyte for rechargeable Aluminium/air cell was evaluated under half-cell and full-cell conditions under ultra-dry atmosphere. Half-cell measurements revealed satisfactory activity of all studied electrolytes for Aluminium stripping/deposition with a certain disparity in overpotential and stability. Evaluation at Pt and more especially determination of ORR onset potential was not straightforward. Nonetheless, all systems exhibited a suitable activity and cycling ability under full-cell conditions. Current and energy efficiencies of 84% and 56% were calculated during first 15 charge/discharge Al/air cycles at 100 mu A cm(-2) for 3 h each in acetamide electrolyte, respectively. Since theoretical reversible electrolyte capacity was evaluated to approximately 28 mAh, only 2.5% of theoretical capacity was able to be cycled. (C) 2018 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
