Sodium Dual-Ion Batteries with Concentrated Electrolytes.

ABSTRACT: Na-based dual-ion batteries (DIBs) are a class of post-lithium technology with advantages including extremely fast charging, cost-effectiveness, and high natural abundance of raw materials. Operating up to high voltages (≈5.0 V), the decomposition of classic carbonate-based electrolyte formulations and the subsequent fade of capacity continues to be a major drawback in the development of these systems. Here, the performance of a Na-DIB was investigated in different commonly employed electrolyte system, and a highly concentrated (3 m NaPF₆ ) and fluorine-rich carbonate-based formulation was optimized to achieve a good performance when compared with literature (based on energy and power density, calculated at coin cell and only using the active mass of active materials).

Project description:Dual-ion batteries (DIBs) generally operate beyond 4.7 V vs Li+/Li0 and rely on the intercalation of both cations and anions in graphite electrodes. Major challenges facing the development of DIBs are linked to electrolyte decomposition at the cathode-electrolyte interface (CEI), graphite exfoliation, and corrosion of Al current collectors. In this work, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) is employed to gain a broad understanding of the nature and dynamics of the CEI built on anion-intercalated graphite cycled both in highly concentrated electrolytes (HCEs) of common lithium salts (LiPF6, LiFSI, and LiTFSI) in carbonate solvents and in a typical ionic liquid. Though Al metal current collectors were adequately stable in all HCEs, the Coulombic efficiency was substantially higher for HCEs based on LiFSI and LiTFSI salts. Specific capacities ranging from 80 to 100 mAh g-1 were achieved with a Coulombic efficiency above 90% over extended cycling, but cells with LiPF6-based electrolytes were characterized by <70% Coulombic efficiency and specific capacities of merely ca. 60 mAh g-1. The poor performance in LiPF6-containing electrolytes is indicative of the continual buildup of decomposition products at the interface due to oxidation, forming a thick interfacial layer rich in LixPFy, POxFy, LixPOyFz, and organic carbonates as evidenced by XPS. In contrast, insights from XPS analyses suggested that anion intercalation and deintercalation processes in the range from 3 to 5.1 V give rise to scant or extremely thin surface layers on graphite electrodes cycled in LiFSI- and LiTFSI-containing HCEs, even allowing for probing anions intercalated in the near-surface bulk. In addition, ex situ Raman, SEM and TEM characterizations revealed the presence of a thick coating on graphite particles cycled in LiPF6-based electrolytes regardless of salt concentration, while hardly any surface film was observed in the case of concentrated LiFSI and LiTFSI electrolytes.
