This study develops a high concentration electrolyte (HCE) that effectively suppresses dendrites and enhances stability in Li metal batteries. The HCE shows good performance under high current density and has potential for applications in high-voltage Li metal batteries and anode-free batteries.
Li metal batteries (LMBs) are ideal candidates for future high-energy-density battery systems. To date, high-voltage LMBs suffer severe limitations because of electrolytes unstable against Li anodes and high-voltage cathodes. Although ether-based electrolytes exhibit good stability with Li metal, compared to carbonate-based electrolytes, they have been used only in <= 4.0 V LMBs because of their limited oxidation stability. Here, a high concentration electrolyte (HCE) comprising lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI) and a weakly solvating solvent (1,2-diethoxyethane, DEE) is designed, which can regulate unique solvation structures with only associated complexes at relatively lower concentration compared to the reported HCEs. This effectively suppresses dendrites on the anode side, and preserves the structural integrity of the cathode side under high voltages by the formation of stable interfacial layers on a Li metal anode and LiNi0.8Mn0.1Co0.1O2 (NMC811) cathode. Consequently, a 3.5 m LiFSI-DEE plays an important role in enhancing the stability of the Li||NMC811 cell with a capacity retention of approximate to 94% after 200 cycles under a high current density of 2.5 mA cm(-2). In addition, the 3.5 m LiFSI-DEE electrolyte exhibits good performance with anode-free batteries. This study offers a promising approach to enable ether-based electrolytes for high-voltage LMBs applications.
