摘要
In the present study, are reported investigations obtained with the room temperature molten salt (RTMS) ethyl-methyl-imidazolium bis-(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)-imide (EMI-TFSI) in order to use it as solvent in lithium battery. The thermal stability, viscosity, conductivity and electrochemical properties are presented. A solution of 1 m lithium bis-(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)-imide (LiTFSI) in EMI-TFSI has been used to test the electrolyte in a battery with LiCoO2 and Li4Ti5O12 as respectively cathode and anode materials. Cycling and power measurements have been obtained. The results have been compared with those obtained with a molten salt formulated with a different anion, BF4- and with a conventional liquid organic solvent EC/DMC containing LiTFSI. The 1m LiTFSI/EMI-TFSI electrolyte provides the best cycling performance: a capacity up to 106 mAh g(-1) is still delivered after 200 cycles, with 1 C rate at 25 degreesC. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd.
