This study investigates the impact of the oxidation behavior of LiDFOB salt on the formation of solid-electrolyte interphase and Li reversibility through a new high concentration electrolyte system. It was found that a polyether/coordinated borate containing solid-electrolyte interphase with inner Li2O crystalline can be observed with increasing salt concentration, enabling stable cycling of LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2/Li cells under high cutoff voltage conditions.
The industrial application of lithium metal anode requires less side reaction between active lithium and electrolyte, which demands the sustainability of the electrolyte-induced solid-electrolyte interface. Here, through a new diluted lithium difluoro(oxalato)borate-based (LiDFOB) high concentration electrolyte system, it is found that the oxidation behavior of aggregated LiDFOB salt has a great impact on solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) formation and Li reversibility. Under the operation window of Cu/LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 full cells (rather than Li/Cu configuration), a polyether/coordinated borate containing solid-electrolyte interphase with inner Li2O crystalline can be observed with the increasing concentration of salt, which can be ascribed to the reaction between aggregated electron-deficient borate species and electron-rich alkoxide SEI components. The high Li reversibility (99.34%) and near-theoretical lithium deposition enable the stable cycling of LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2/Li cells (N/P < 2, 350 Wh kg(-1)) under high cutoff voltage condition of 4.6 V and lean electrolyte condition (E/C approximate to 3.2 g Ah(-1)).
