High-thermopower polarized electrolytes enabled by methylcellulose for low-grade heat harvesting
Low-grade heat exists ubiquitously in the environment. Thermogalvanic cells (TGCs) are promising for converting the widespread low-grade heat directly into electricity owing to relatively high thermopowers of redox reactions.
