Rhombohedral Li1+xYxZr2-x(PO4)3 Solid Electrolyte Prepared by Hot-Pressing for All-Solid-State Li-Metal Batteries.

ABSTRACT: NASICON-type solid electrolytes with excellent stability in moisture are promising in all-solid-state batteries and redox flow batteries. However, NASIOCN LiZr2(PO4)3 (LZP), which is more stable with lithium metal than the commercial Li1.3Al0.3Ti1.7(PO4)3, exhibits a low Li-ion conductivity of 10-6 S cm-1 because the fast conducting rhombohedral phase only exists above 50 °C. In this paper, the high-ionic conductive rhombohedral phase is stabilized by Y3+ doping at room temperature, and the hot-pressing technique is employed to further improve the density of the pellet. The dense Li1.1Y0.1Zr1.9(PO4)3 pellet prepared by hot-pressing shows a high Li-ion conductivity of 9 × 10-5 S cm-1, which is two orders of magnitude higher than that of LiZr2(PO4)3. The in-situ formed Li3P layer on the surface of Li1.1Y0.1Zr1.9(PO4)3 after contact with the lithium metal increases the wettability of the pellet by the metallic lithium anode. Moreover, the Li1.1Y0.1Zr1.9(PO4)3 pellet shows a relatively small interfacial resistance in symmetric Li/Li and all-solid-state Li-metal cells, providing these cells a small overpotential and a long cycling life.

Project description:Fluorinated electrolytes based on fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) have been considered as promising alternative electrolytes for high-voltage and high-energy capacity lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, the compatibility of the fluorinated electrolytes with graphite negative electrodes is unclear. In this paper, we have systematically investigated, for the first time, the stability of fluorinated electrolytes with graphite negative electrodes, and the result shows that unlike the ethylene carbonate (EC)-based electrolyte, the FEC-based electrolyte (EC was totally replaced by FEC) is incapable of forming a protective and effective solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) that protects the electrolyte from runaway reduction on the graphite surface. The reason is that the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy levels are also lowered by the introduction of fluorine into the solvent, and the FEC solvent has poorer resistance against reduction, leading to instability on the graphite negative electrode. To tackle this problem, two lithium salts of lithium bis(oxalato)borate and lithium difluoro(oxalato)borate (LiDFOB) have been investigated as negative-electrode film-forming additives. Incorporation of only 0.5 wt % LiDFOB to a FEC-based electrolyte [1.0 M LiPF6 in 3:7 (FEC-ethyl methyl carbonate)] results in excellent cycling performance of the graphite negative electrode. This improved property originates from the generation of a thinner and better quality SEI film with little LiF by the sacrificial reduction of the LiDFOB additive on the graphite negative electrode surface. On the other hand, this additive can stabilize the electrolyte by scavenging HF. Meanwhile, the incorporated LiDFOB additive has positive influence on the interphase layer on the positive electrode surface and significantly decreases the amount of HF formation, finally leading to improved cycling stability and rate capability of LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 electrodes at a high cutoff voltage of 5 V. The data demonstrate that the LiDFOB additive not only exhibits a superior compatibility with graphite but also improves the electrochemical properties of high-voltage spinel LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 positive electrodes considerably, confirming its potential as a prospective, multifunctional additive for 5 V fluorinated electrolytes in high-energy capacity lithium-ion batteries (LIBs).
