Catalytically Induced Robust Inorganic-Rich Cathode Electrolyte Interphase for 4.5 V Li||NCM622 Batteries

Zhongsheng Wang et al.

Summary: Tailoring the inorganic components of the CEI and SEI in lithium metal batteries is crucial for improving their cycling performance. By using PFBNBS as an electrolyte additive guided by functional groups, the species and inorganic content of the CEI/SEI are enriched with a gradient distribution. Furthermore, the catalytic effect of the NCM622 cathode on the decomposition of PFBNBS is proposed. This tailored electrolyte enables the formation of an inorganic-rich CEI on NCM622 and an increased inorganic content in the SEI, leading to superior electrochemical performance and inhibiting electrolyte decomposition.

Dynamic Ion Sieve as the Buffer Layer for Regulating Li+ Flow in Lithium Metal Batteries

Junda Huang et al.

Summary: Realizing uniform Li+ flow is crucial for achieving even Li deposition in lithium metal batteries (LMBs). In this study, a dynamic ion sieve concept is proposed, which involves designing a buffer layer near the Li anode surface to regulate Li+ spatial arrangement by introducing TMPB into the carbonate electrolyte. The buffer layer induced by TMP+ allows solvated Li+ sufficient time to redistribute and accumulate on the Li anode surface, resulting in a uniform and concentrated Li+ flow. Additionally, TFSI- participates in the formation of an inorganic-rich solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) with Li3N, enhancing the Li+ conductivity of the SEI. As a result, the stable and uniform Li deposition achieved excellent cycling performance in Li||Li symmetric cells for up to 1000 hours at 0.5 mA cm(-2). Furthermore, the Li||NCM622 full cell exhibited excellent cycling stability with a high-capacity retention rate of 66.7% after 300 cycles.

Armor-like Inorganic-rich Cathode Electrolyte Interphase Enabled by the Pentafluorophenylboronic Acid Additive for High-voltage Li||NCM622 Batteries

Yulu Yang et al.

Summary: Lithium metal batteries (LMBs) with high-voltage nickel-rich cathode and Li metal anode have the potential for high capacity and power density, but electrolytes that can withstand oxidation on the cathode at high cut-off voltage are urgently needed. This study presents an armor-like inorganic-rich cathode electrolyte interphase (CEI) strategy using pentafluorophenylboronic acid (PFPBA) as an additive to explore oxidation-resistant electrolytes for sustaining 4.8 V Li||LiNi0.6Co0.2Mn0.2O2 (NCM622) batteries. The CEI, which consists of armored lithium borate and abundant LiF, improves the mechanical stability and Li+ conductivity, leading to excellent cycling performance and capacity retention even at 4.8 V cut-off voltage.

Conductive Li+ Moieties-Rich Cathode Electrolyte Interphase with Electrolyte Additive for 4.6 V Well-Cycled Li||LiCoO2 Batteries

Kanglong Guo et al.

Summary: Increasing the cut-off voltage of cathodes improves the energy density of Li||LiCoO2 batteries, but also leads to rapid battery degradation due to oxidation and deterioration. However, by using bis-(benzenesulfonyl)imide (BBSI) as an additive, a uniform and highly Li+ conductive cathode electrolyte interphase (CEI) is constructed, which stabilizes the batteries at 4.6 cut-off voltage and exhibits superior cycling and high-rate performance. The CEI, consisting of LiF and conductive Li+ moieties, improves Li+ migration, alleviates cathode degradation, and reduces other secondary degradation factors. Li||LiCoO2 batteries with 1% BBSI-containing electrolyte sustain 81.30% of initial capacity after 300 cycles at 0.5C, and 88.27% of initial capacity even after 500 cycles at 2C/3C.

Summary: The energy density of LIBs has been increased threefold since their introduction, but the capacity of transition metal oxide cathodes is approaching its limit due to stability limitations of electrolytes.

One of the main challenges for future development is the development of new electrolyte compositions that can accommodate high-voltage cathodes and anodes while ensuring the stability of the batteries.
