Paving the way toward highly reversible aluminum metal anodes: the core role of ionic liquid electrolyte systems.
Review in Green chemistry : an international journal and green chemistry resource : GC, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Rechargeable aluminum-ion batteries (AIBs) are promising candidates for next-generation energy storage, yet their practical deployment is hampered by the intrinsic limitations of conventional ionic liquid (IL) electrolytes, such as high viscosity, corrosivity, and moisture sensitivity. This review focuses on the core role of IL electrolyte design in enabling highly reversible aluminum metal anodes. First, the fundamental requirements and working mechanisms of ILs are systematically elucidated. Furthermore, recent optimization strategies are critically summarized and discussed in terms of four aspects: (1) cation-anion pair engineering to regulate active aluminum species, tailor physicochemical properties, and reduce reliance on costly imidazolium-based components, (2) functional additives to enhance ion transport and regulate solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) formation, (3) deep eutectic solvent formulations as potentially lower-cost and more sustainable alternatives, and (4) gel and quasi-solid-state architecture construction to improve safety and mechanical strength. Finally, the performance-sustainability trade-offs of current IL electrolyte systems are discussed, and design guidelines are provided for developing safer and more sustainable electrolytes with high ionic conductivity, wide electrochemical windows, and robust interfacial compatibility. These advancements are expected to facilitate the realization of highly reversible aluminum metal anodes and high-energy-density AIBs, thereby propelling the development of next-generation aluminum-based energy storage technologies.
