摘要
Concentration of electrolyte has significant effects on performances of rechargeable batteries. Previous studies mainly focused on concentrated electrolytes. So far, only several recipes on low-concentration electrolytes were studied, performing enhanced performance in advanced rechargeable batteries. Here, based on common electrolyte components, a low-concentration electrolyte composed of 0.2 M lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6) solvated in fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) and ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC) is employed for high-voltage Li metal battery. The synergistic working mechanisms of introducing fluorine-containing solvent in the solvated structure and low salt concentration effect are revealed, resulting in LiF-rich, uniform, and robust solid electrolyte interphase layer and fewer unfavorable decomposition products. As a result, this low-concentration electrolyte significantly enhances electrochemical performances of Li||Li symmetric cells and high-voltage LiCoO2||Li batteries.
