Ternary and quaternary mixed electrolytes for lithium cells
Tóm tắt
This paper reports the influence of composition of mixed solvent electrolyte composition on the discharge capacity and charge–discharge cycle life of lithium metal/amorphous V2O5–P2O5 (95:5 in molar ratio) cells. The solvents used were ethylene carbonate (EC), propylene carbonate (PC), 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (2MeTHF) and THF. LiAsF6 was used as the solute. The electrolyte solutions examined here contain ternary and quaternary mixed systems. The purpose of this work is to obtain an electrolyte solution which realizes a higher rate capability and/or a longer cycle life than the previously studied EC:PC:2MeTHF (15:70:15) ternary mixed system. Of the electrolyte systems examined here, the EC:PC:2MeTHF (30:40:30 in volume) ternary mixed solvent system showed the best cell performance. In addition, a heating test was carried out on an AA- size lithium cell with EC:PC:2MeTHF (30:40:30) as a fundamental abuse test to ensure cell safety.
