The Transference Number

Abstract
En 中文
The performance of rechargeable batteries and other electrochemical systems depends on the rate at which the working ion (often a cation) is transported from one electrode to the other. The cation transference number is an important transport parameter that affects this rate. The purpose of this perspective is to distinguish between approximate and rigorous methods used in the literature to measure the transference number. We emphasize the fact that this parameter is dependent on the reference frame used in the analysis; care must be taken when comparing values obtained from different sources to account for differences in reference frames. We present data obtained from a well-characterized electrolyte. We compare rigorously determined transference numbers in two reference frames with values obtained by an approximate method. We conclude with a qualitative discussion of the relationship between the transference number and salt concentration gradients that are obtained when current is drawn through a battery.
