Polymer electrolyte films were prepared by chemical crosslinking of polyethylene glycol 2000 (PEG) containing LiSO3CF3 or Li[(SO2CF3)(2)N]; polyethylene glycol dimethylether 500 (PEGDME) was also added to a PEG-LiSO3CF3 electrolyte. The electrochemical properties of these three electrolytes were investigated for ionic conductivity, electrochemical stability window, steady state current fraction, interface resistance and lithium/electrolyte interface stability. Furthermore, we tested prototype Li cells with a LiMn2O4 composite cathode to ascertain the effective viability of these electrolytes in solid-state Li batteries. The Li[(SO2CF3)(2)N] salt in the crosslinked electrolyte presents a steady-state current fraction too low for battery application, while the addition of PEGDME improves conductivity, interface resistance and battery performance.

Abstract
Polymer electrolyte films were prepared by chemical crosslinking of polyethylene glycol 2000 (PEG) containing LiSO3CF3 or Li[(SO2CF3)(2)N]; polyethylene glycol dimethylether 500 (PEGDME) was also added to a PEG-LiSO3CF3 electrolyte. The electrochemical properties of these three electrolytes were investigated for ionic conductivity, electrochemical stability window, steady state current fraction, interface resistance and lithium/electrolyte interface stability. Furthermore, we tested prototype Li cells with a LiMn2O4 composite cathode to ascertain the effective viability of these electrolytes in solid-state Li batteries. The Li[(SO2CF3)(2)N] salt in the crosslinked electrolyte presents a steady-state current fraction too low for battery application, while the addition of PEGDME improves conductivity, interface resistance and battery performance.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
