Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main motivation for the organization of the Advanced Research Workshop in Belgirate was the promotion of discussions on the most recent issues and the future perspectives in the field of Solid State lonics. The location was chosen on purpose since Belgirate was the place were twenty years ago, also then under the sponsorship of NATO, the very first international meeting on this important and interdisciplinary field took place. That meeting was named "Fast Ion Transport in Solids" and gathered virtually everybody at that time having been active in any aspect of motion of ions in solids. The original Belgirate Meeting made for the first time visible the technological potential related to the phenomenon of the fast ionic transport in solids and, accordingly, the field was given the name "Solid State lonics". This field is now expanded to cover a wide range of technologies which includes chemical sensors for environmental and process control, electrochromic windows, mirrors and displays, fuel cells, high performance rechargeable batteries for stationary applications and electrotraction, chemotronics, semiconductor ionics, water electrolysis cells for hydrogen economy and other applications. The main idea for holding an anniversary meeting was that of discussing the most recent issues and the future perspectives of Solid State lonics just twenty years after it has started at the same location on the lake Maggiore in North Italy.

In NIB, the electrolyte is also a crucial part of the batteries and the recent research, showing a possible alternative to classical electrolytes – with the development of ionic liquid-based electrolytes – is also explored. Cycling performance in NIB is also strongly associated with the quality of the electrode-electrolyte interface, where electrolyte degradation takes place; thus, Na-ion Batteries details the recent achievements in furthering knowledge of this interface. Finally, as the ultimate goal is commercialization of this new electrical storage technology, the last chapters are dedicated to the industrial point of view, given by two startup companies, who developed two different NIB chemistries for complementary applications and markets.
Download or read book SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF HYBRID ELECTROLYTES WITH TETHERED IONIC LIQUID FOR LITHIUM ION BATTERIES written by Guang Yang and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rechargeable lithium ion batteries are revolutionary energy storage systems widely used in portable electronic devices (e.g., mobile phones, laptops) and more recently electrical vehicles. The conventional liquid electrolytes in the lithium ion battery brought about safety problems such as fire and explosion. Related safety accidents (e.g., cell phone explosion, laptop fire, plane smoldering, etc.) have been reported many times. This also eliminates the possibility of using lithium metal as anode material which has much higher theoretical specific capacity in comparison with commercial graphite electrode because of the growth of uncontrolled lithium dendrites can lead to short circuit and other serious accidents. Solid polymer electrolytes have many advantages over conventional liquid electrolytes. They are light-weighted, non-volatile and have much better safety features than liquid electrolyte. Meanwhile, they are also better than the ceramic electrolyte in terms of their excellent flexibility and processability. Currently, low ionic conductivity of solid polymer electrolytes (e.g., polyethylene oxide (PEO)) at ambient temperature still hinders their practical application. Ionic liquids (ILs) are non-flammable and have negligible volatility. Its ionic conductive nature, excellent chemical stability, and good electrochemical stability enable them to be regarded as useful components for next generation battery electrolytes. In this thesis work, focus will be placed on synthesis and characterization of ionic liquid tethered organic/inorganic hybrid polymer electrolyte with high room temperature ionic conductivity. Moreover, their electrochemical properties and prototype battery performances were also looked into. The use of highly conductive solid-state electrolytes to replace conventional liquid organic electrolytes enables radical improvements in reliability, safety and performance of lithium batteries. Here in chapter 2, we report the synthesis and characterization of a new class of nonflammable solid electrolytes based on the grafting of ionic liquids onto octa-silsesquioxane. The electrolyte exhibits outstanding room-temperature ionic conductivity (~4.8 10-4 S/cm), excellent electrochemical stability (up to 5 V relative to Li+/Li) and high thermal stability. All-solid-state Li metal batteries using the prepared electrolyte membrane are successfully cycled with high coulombic efficiencies at ambient temperature. Good cycling stability of the electrolyte against lithium has been demonstrated. This work provides a new platform of solid polymer electrolyte for the application of room-temperature lithium batteries. In chapter 3, an organic-inorganic hybrid solid electrolyte with ionic liquid moieties tethered onto dumbbell-shaped octasilsesquioxanes through oligo(ethylene glycol) spacers was synthesized. The hybrid electrolyte is featured by its high room-temperature ionic conductivity (1.210-4 S/cm at 20 oC with LiTFSI salt), excellent electrochemical stability (4.6 V vs Li+/Li), and great thermal stability. Excellent capability of the hybrid electrolyte to mediate electrochemical deposition and dissolution of lithium has been demonstrated in the symmetrical lithium cells. No short circuit has been observed after more than 500 hrs in the polarization tests. Decent charge/discharge performance has been obtained in the prepared electrolyte based all-solid-state lithium battery cells at ambient temperature. In chapter 4, hybrid polymer electrolyte network (XPOSS-IL) synthesized by crosslinking the individual dendritic POSS-IL was investigated. To be specific, after grafting mono-broninated hexaethylene glycol to the POSS cage, 1-vinyl imidazole was adopted for the subsequent quarternization reaction. Then the chain end double bonds underwent free radical crosslinking process to produce XPOSS-IL. The ionic conductivity of LiTFSI dissolved XPOSS-IL is 5.4 10-5 S/cm at 30 . By adding a small fraction of ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (EMITFSI), the ionic conductivity increases to 1.4 10-4 S/cm at room temperature. It is also found that EMITFSI will enhance the anodic stability of XPOSS-IL. The Li/LTO and Li/LFP cell assembled with X-POSS-IL-LiTFSI/EMITFSI demonstrates capability of delivering high specific capacities at room temperature and elevated temperature.

Download or read book Rechargeable Battery Electrolytes written by Jianmin Ma and published by Royal Society of Chemistry. This book was released on 2024-02-26 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rechargeable batteries are one of the crucial ways we are going to solve the sustainable energy crisis. Lithium-ion batteries have been commercialised and are heavily relied upon, however, the scarcity of lithium resources increases the production cost and hinders further application. Additionally, the toxic and flammable electrolyte brings many potential safety hazards including environmental pollution. Looking for low-cost, safe, and environmentally friendly alternatives to LIBs has become a valuable research direction. The modification of batteries is focused on the anode, the cathode and electrolyte. Globally, researchers have moved onto new rechargeable batteries based on multivalent metal ions which have been extensively studied, including K+, Ca2+, Mg2+ and Al3+. However, the electrolyte is a very important component of a battery as its physical and chemical properties directly affect the electrochemical performance and energy storage mechanism. Finding and selecting an appropriate electrolyte system is a crucial factor that must be taken into account to make these post-lithium-ion batteries commercially viable. Until now, it has been challenging to develop a suitable electrolyte with a wide electrochemical stability window and stable anode interface. This book covers all the major ion-battery groups and their electrolytes, examining their performance and suitability in different solvents: aqueous, non-aqueous, solid gel and polymer. It is suitable for all levels of students and researchers who want to understand the fundamentals and future challenges of developing electrolytes.
Download or read book Ionic Liquid Electrolytes for Lithium Metal Batteries written by George Hamilton Lane and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis explores the use of ionic liquids as electrolytes for rechargeable lithium metal batteries. The phenomenon of internal cell short circuiting, a result of dendritic lithium plating, is described along with some practices that ameliorate the problem. The ionic liquid type, charging method and additives are all found to affect short circuit behaviour. Short circuiting is found to be particularly troublesome for a N(SO2CF3)2- based electrolyte, which is remedied by using pulsed charging and an appropriate additive. More promisingly, electrolytes based on N(CN)2- are found to not suffer from short circuiting under the same conditions. Additives are an important part of electrolyte formulation, and their benefits and limitations are investigated from the viewpoints of interfacial stability and the longevity of their effects. Organic solvents used in typical molecule based lithium battery electrolytes, the alkyl carbonates, are found to improve interfacial stability when used as additives in ionic liquid based electrolytes. However, this does not guarantee a favourable lithium deposit morphology during the charging process. The chemical compositions of the surface films formed on lithium metal by reaction with different electrolytes are investigated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Evidence is presented that a cyclic ether type cation reacts at the lithium surface to form an alkoxide species in a surface process analogous to the reaction of a molecular ether with lithium metal. For N(SO2F)2- type ionic liquids, the SO2 group appears to be preserved in the surface film, however the S-F group is not. Electrolytes based on N(CN)2- appear to form a thick surface film that is chemically very similar to the ionic liquid. Although rate performance yet requires improvement, in terms of maximising battery cycle life, the N(CN)2- based electrolyte appears to be a promising alternative to the more exotic N(SO2CF3)2- and N(SO2F)2- based ionic liquids.

This book was released on 2021-06-23 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every electrochemical source of electric current is composed of two electrodes with an electrolyte in between. Since storage capacity depends predominantly on the composition and design of the electrodes, most research and development efforts have been focused on them. Considerably less attention has been paid to the electrolyte, a battery’s basic component. This book fills this gap and shines more light on the role of electrolytes in modern batteries. Today, limitations in lithium-ion batteries result from non-optimal properties of commercial electrolytes as well as scientific and engineering challenges related to novel electrolytes for improved lithium-ion as well as future post-lithium batteries.
