Abstract
This study presents a highly automated workflow integrating a high-throughput experimental platform with an active learning algorithm to accelerate the discovery of optimal electrolyte formulations for redox flow batteries. The platform identified multiple solvents exceeding a 6.20 M solubility threshold for 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole, requiring solubility assessments for less than 10% of the 2000+ candidate solvents. Binary solvent mixtures, especially those with 1,4-dioxane, significantly boosted solubility.
