Preparation Of 3d Semi-Interpenetrated Polymer Networks Polymer Electrolyte For Lithium Metal Battery, Yun-Feng Zhang, Jia-Ying Wang, Xiao-Jie Li, Shi-Yu Zhao, Yang He, Shi-Kang Huo, Ya-Ying Wang, Chang Tan

Journal of Electrochemistry

As the next generation high-energy batteries, lithium metal battery has attracted more and more attention due to its highest specific capacity (3860 mA·h·g-1) and the lowest anode potential (-3.04 V versus the standard hydrogen electrode, SHE). However, the safety problem caused by lithium dendrite growth is one of the biggest challenges for the commercialization of lithium metal batteries. Single ion conducting polymer electrolytes, which deliver high lithium ion transference number, represent one of the important strategies to inhibit lithium dendrite growth. However, the poor compatibility with electrodes and low ionic conductivity largely limit their practical application. In the present work, …

Preparation And Characterization Of “Water-In-Salt” Polymer Electrolyte For Lithium-Ion Batteries, Xu Hou, Xin He, Jie Li

Journal of Electrochemistry

Since the development of wearable and flexible electronic products, the demand of flexible energy storage devices such as batteries and super capacitors is in urgent. To enhance the safety and cycling stability for flexible lithium-ion batteries, “water-in-salt” polymer electrolyte was prepared by introducing 21 mol·kg-1 LiTFSI electrolyte into cross-linked polyacrylamide (PAM) after freeze-drying. A great amount of holes with the size range of 10 ~ 20 μm can be found on the surface and in the bulk of polyacrylamide, which is benefited from the freeze-drying process and acts as a great support for the electrolyte uptake. The “water-in-salt” polymer electrolyte …

Electrochemical Performance Of Gel Polymer Electrolyte Prepared By Thermal Initiating Polymerization Of Acrylates, Jin-Dan Piao, Li-Xia Yuan, Xin-Ping Ai, Han-Xi Yang, Yu-Liang Cao

Journal of Electrochemistry

A gel polymer electrolyte was prepared by thermal initiating polymerization of the acrylates in the EC/EMC/DMC electrolyte solution at 100℃. The LiCoO_2/MCMB polymer cells were assembled and their electrochemical properties were evaluated at various charge-discharge rate and temperatures. The ionic conductivity of the polymer electrolyte containing 85wt.% liquid electrolyte is around 3.2×10~(-3)S·cm~(-1) at 20℃ and 5.6×10~(-4)S·cm~(-1)at -30℃ respectively. The gel polymer electrolyte has good electrochemical stability up to 4.5V versus Li/Li~(+).The first charge-discharge efficiency of the polymer cell at 0.2C rate is almost 92.1%. The discharge capacity of the cell at 1.0C rate is 95% of the capacity at the …

Journal of Electrochemistry

A direct methanol fuel cell with 9cm 2 active area consists of Pt_Ru/C anode,Pt/C cathode and Nafion 115 membrane.The effect of operating conditions:methanol solution concentration,oxygen pressure and cell temperature on the cell performances was investigated.The results show that performance of single cell was enhanced by increasing oxygen pressure and cell temperature,and a maximum power density 75 mW/cm 2 was obtained in the range of 250_300 mA/cm 2 current density,0.2 MPa oxygen pressure,1.0 mol/L methanol concentration and 75 ℃ cell temperature.When cell operating at room temperature,a relatively low,but a stable performance of cell was also observed.

Journal of Electrochemistry

Our recent works about nanosized materials for lithium ion batteries are reported, including the synthesis of nanosized Sb, SnSb, CuSn x, Si and CuS, their electrochemical performance as anode or cathode active materials,the variation of crystal structure and morphology during discharge and charge cycling. In addition,the self_plasticization of lithium salt with nanosized anion ion in polymer electrolyte,the influence of the electrochemical Li_doping on the Raman spectra and photoluminescence of nano_Si are also introduced. Furthermore,the relationship between intrinsic properties of nanosized materials and their electrochemical behaviors are discussed. The prospect of nanosized materials for lithium ion batteries is drawn.

Journal of Electrochemistry

A number of polymer materials as candidates of host matrix of plastic polymer electrolyte were examined and techniques for preparation of thin_film electrolyte were reported. The results showed that the polymer electrolyte prepared with P(VDF_HFP) copolymer as host matrix and DBP as plasticizer exhibit the satisfactory mechanical strength and ionic conductivity. In comprison with liquid electrolyte systems, thin_film lithium ion battery has almost similar charge_discharge capacity and cycleability. The manufacture methods and the technical factors in making plasticizing lithium ion battery were also described in details.
