Targeted stabilization of solid electrolyte interphase and cathode electrolyte interphase in high-voltage lithium-metal batteries by an asymmetric sustained-release strategy
High-voltage lithium (Li)-metal batteries with cell-level energy density over 350 Wh kg −1 are promising energy storage systems . However, the aggressive interphase chemistries associated with highly reactive Li-metal anode and high-voltage cathodes impede their practical applications. Herein, we demonstrate the targeted stabilization of solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) and cathode electrolyte interphase (CEI) in high-voltage Li-metal batteries by asymmetrically sustained-releasing different additives. An asymmetric sustained-release film loaded with lithium bis-(oxalate)borate (LiBOB) and LiNO 3 on each side is investigated as a proof-of-concept. The sustained-releasing of LiBOB and LiNO 3 can maintain a localized concentration at the high-voltage cathode and Li-metal anode fronts respectively, thus forming a stable B-containing CEI and N-containing SEI. As such, issues like dendrites growth, parasitic side reactions and transition metals dissolution under high-voltage are addressed simultaneously. Based on this strategy, the 30 μm Li|LiNi 0.5 Co 0.2 Mn 0.3 O 2 (4.1 mAh cm −2 ) batteries deliver a capacity retention of 80% after 173 cycles under a cut-off voltage of 4.5 V.
