The synergetic effect of lithium polysulfide and lithium nitrate to prevent lithium dendrite growth
TLDR
It is demonstrated that a stable and uniform solid electrolyte interphase layer is formed due to a synergetic effect of both lithium polysulfide and lithium nitrate as additives in ether-based electrolyte, preventing dendrite growth and minimizing electrolyte decomposition.Abstract:
Lithium dendrite growth is a serious hazard in battery operations. Here, the authors show that when using lithium polysulfide and lithium nitrate as additives in ether-based electrolyte, a stable and uniform solid electrolyte interphase forms on the lithium surface, which prevents dendrite growth.read more
