Room temperature ionic liquid (RTIL) was prepared on basis of N-methyl-N-butylpiperidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (PP14TFSI), which showed a wide electrochemical window (-0.1-5.2 V vs. Li+/Li) and is theoretically feasible as an electrolyte for batteries with metallic Li as anodes. The addition of vinylene carbonate (VC) improved the compatibility Of PP14TFSI-based electrolyte towards lithium anodes and enhanced the formation of solid electrolyte interphase film to protect lithium anodes from corrosion. Accordingly, Li/LiFePO4 cells initially delivered a discharge capacity of about 127 mAh g(-1) at a current density of 17 mA g(-1) in the ionic liquid with the addition of VC and showed better cyclability than in the near ionic liquid. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy disclosed that the addition of VC enhanced Li-ion diffusion and depressed interfacial resistance significantly. (c) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
