Abstract
Redox-active oligomer flow cell performance: We synthesized a series of redox-active oligomers and investigated their reaction kinetics and mass transport using electroanalytical methods and symmetric cell testing. We find that characteristics measured in the flow cell closely mirror ex situ trends in reversibility and diffusivity, validating and extending upon previously-developed property-performance relationships.
