Brand-new products found for safe, high-performance solid-state lithium-ion batteries
All-solid-state lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries with strong electrolytes are non-flammable and have greater energy density and transfer numbers than those with liquid electrolytes. They are anticipated to take a share of the marketplace for traditional liquid electrolyte Li-ion batteries, such as electrical cars. In spite of these benefits, strong electrolytes have lower Li-ion conductivity and position obstacles in attaining sufficient electrode-solid electrolyte contact. While sulfide-based strong electrolytes are conductive, they respond with wetness to form hazardous hydrogen disulfide. There's a requirement for non-sulfide strong electrolytes that are both conductive and steady in air to make safe, high-performance, and fast-charging solid-state Li-ion batteries.
