- Abstract
- A large number of applications such as mobile electronics and electric vehicles requires rechargeable batteries with high energy density and enhanced safety. To achieve these goals, lithium metal batteries employing solid-state electrolytes have become common despite the safety concerns associated with lithium metal. Polymer electrolytes have been studied as a solution for enhancing the safety of lithium metal batteries because they are non-volatile, non-flammable, and suppress the growth of lithium dendrites. In this study, highly elastic polyurethane (PU)-based polymer electrolytes were prepared in the form of thin flexible films, and their electrochemical characteristics were investigated. To improve the ionic conductivity, non-volatile and nonflammable 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide was added as a plasticizing additive to the polymer electrolyte. The cell assembled using a Li anode, PU-based elastomeric polymer electrolyte and composite LiNi0.6Co0.2Mn0.2O2 cathode exhibited stable cycling performance by suppressing the growth of lithium dendrites as well as maintaining good interfacial contacts between electrolyte and electrodes during repeated cycling.
