Water-in-salt electrolytes made saltier by Gemini ionic liquids for highly efficient Li-ion batteries

Aleksandar Tot et al.

Summary: Water-in-salt electrolytes have made aqueous Li-ion batteries one of the most promising candidates for overcoming safety issues in traditional Li-ion batteries. By increasing the Li-salt concentration in the electrolytes, the electrochemical stability window of aqueous electrolytes can be expanded beyond 2 V. However, improving stability requires more complex ternary electrolytes. In this study, the effects of novel Gemini-type ionic liquids (GILs) as co-solvent systems in aqueous Li[TFSI] mixtures were explored, and their transport properties and electrochemical performance were investigated. Devices containing pyrrolidinium-based GILs showed superior cycling stability and promising specific capacity in cells using commonly used electrode materials LTO (Li4Ti5O12) and LMO (LiMn2O4).
