The ongoing development of redox-active charge carriers for nonaqueous redox-flow batteries has led to energy-dense storage concepts and chemistries with high cell voltages. However, rarely are these candidates for flowable energy storage evaluated in tandem with cell separators compatible with organic solvent, limiting progress in the identification of suitable charge carrier-separator pairings. This is important, as the efficiency of a redox-flow battery is dictated by extent of active species crossover through a separator, dividing the two cells, and the contribution of the separator to cell resistance. Here, we report the size-dependent crossover behavior of a series of redox-active vanadium(III) acetoacetonate, and two polyoxovanadate-alkoxide clusters, [V₆O₇(OR)₁₂] (R = CH₃, C₅H₁₁) through separators derived from polymers of intrinsic microporosity (PIMs). We find that highly efficacious active-material blocking requires both increasing the size of the vanadium species and restricting pore swelling of the PIMs in nonaqueous electrolyte. Notably, increasing the size of the vanadium species does not significantly affect its redox reversibility, and reducing swelling decreases the conductivity of the separator by only 50%. By pairing polyoxometalate clusters with PIM membranes in nonaqueous redox-flow batteries, more efficient systems may well be within reach.
