NASICON-type structure lithium ion conductors have been considered as promising solid electrolytes due to its very high Li + -ion conductivity and chemical stability. In this paper, NASICON-type structured Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 (PO 4 ) 3 (LAGP) glass–ceramics are prepared from crystallization of glass powders, which are obtained by a simple melt-quench method. NH 4 H 2 PO 4 , H 3 PO 4 , P 2 O 5 and H 3 PO 4 &Al(PO 3 ) 3 are used as phosphorus sources, respectively. The obtained LAGP glass–ceramics are systematically characterized with X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy , differential scanning calorimetry and AC impedance spectroscopy . The different impurities are formed depending on the phosphorus sources, which further influence the microstructure. As a result, the lithium ion conductivity is significantly affected by the phosphorus sources. The highest conductivity of 5.21 × 10 − 4 S·cm − 1 is obtained when H 3 PO 4 is used as the phosphorus source under optimum conditions.

Solid electrolytes could address the increasingly urgent safety and energy density concerns of lithium-ion batteries. Among several kinds of solid electrolytes, Ta-doped Li 7 La 3 Zr 2 O 12 (Ta-LLZO) became a research hotspot because of its high Li-ion conductivity and chemical stability against Li-metal and air. However, the preparation of high quality LLZO ceramic electrolyte via conventional air ambient sintering method is still a big challenge due to the serious “Li-loss” and abnormal grain growth phenomenon during the long-time high-temperature sintering process . Herein, a new rapid ultra-high-temperature air ambient sintering method without mother powder (MP) is put forward for the preparation of high quality Ta-LLZO ceramic electrolyte. The rapid sintering strategy can effectively restrain “Li-loss”. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that the none-mother-powder method is superior to traditional mother-powder method. Ta-LLZO ceramics sintered without MP via this rapid sintering method own small grain size, tight grain boundary, dense microstructure and high conductivity. Specifically, the Ta-LLZO ceramic sintered at 1360 °C for 10 min without MP exhibits high conductivity (8.5 × 10 −4 S cm −1 at 25 °C) and high relative density (97%), which equate those made by hot pressing sintering method. Without MP, the sintering process can avoid a lot of material waste and simplify the operation process. Moreover, the rapid sintering process can sharply shorten sintering time and reduce energy consumption. Therefore, this low-cost high-efficient sintering strategy can be effectively used in the large-scale production of high-quality Ta-LLZO ceramic electrolyte.

In the past two decades, ionic conductive hydrogel has attracted tremendous research interests for their intrinsic characteristics in the field of flexible sensor. However, synchronous achievement of high mechanical strength, satisfied ionic conductivity, and broad adhesion to various substrates is still a challenge. Herein, a novel zwitterionic composite hydrogel that displayed excited strechability (up to 900%), satisfied strength (about 30 kPa), high ionic conductivity (1.2 mS cm −1 ), and adhesion to polar and nonpolar materials is fabricated though the combination of waterborne polyurethanes (PU) and poly(sulfobetaine zwitterion- co -acrylamide) (SAm). Especially, this facile strategy demonstrates that PU has a synergistic effect on enhancing mechanical strength and ionic conductivity for ionic conductive hydrogel. Moreover, the hydrogel-based strain/stress sensor shows high sensitivity, wide sensing range, great stability, and accuracy for human body movements detecting and voice recognition. This novel ionic conductive hydrogel has promoted the development of wearable devices.

Polymeric ionic liquid-based gel electrolyte films are a new generation of electrolyte materials for flexible energy storage device applications. In this work, Li-ion conducting gel electrolyte films are prepared with the polymeric ionic liquid poly(diallydimethylammonium) bis(trifluoromethane sulfonyl)imide (poly(DADMATFSI)) as the host polymer and the lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) salt as the dopant . The crystalline nature, thermal stability, ionic conductivity and electrochemical stability window of the polymeric electrolyte films are analyzed by various characterization techniques. It is found that the polymeric electrolyte films exhibit high flexibility and excellent thermal stability. Their room-temperature electrical conductivity increases with increasing LiTFSI concentration and reaches a high value of 1.00 × 10 −3 S cm −1 at 20 wt% LiTFSI. The ionic transference numbers of the polymeric electrolyte films are in the range of 0.98–0.99, indicating that they are perfect ion conductors. Finally, the electrochemical stability window of the 20 wt% LiTFSI-doped polymeric electrolyte film is determined as approximately 6 V, which is a promising value for flexible energy storage device applications.

Solid-state batteries with high energy density and safety are promising next-generation battery systems. However, lithium oxide and lithium sulfide electrolytes suffer low ionic conductivity and poor electrochemical stability, respectively. Lithium halide solid electrolyte shows high conductivity and good compatibility with the pristine high-voltage cathode but limited applications due to the high price of rare metal. Zr-based lithium halides with low cost and high stability possess great potential. Herein, a small amount of In 3+ is introduced in Li 2 ZrCl 6 to synthesize Li 2.25 Zr 0.75 In 0.25 Cl 6 electrolytes with a high room temperature Li-ion conductivity of 1.08 mS/cm. Solid-state batteries using Li 2.25 Zr 0.75 In 0.25 Cl 6 /Li 5.5 PS 4.5 Cl 1.5 bilayer solid electrolytes combined with Li-In anode and pristine LiNi 0.7 Mn 0.2 Co 0.1 O 2 cathode deliver high initial discharge capacities under different cut-off voltages. This work provides an effective strategy for enhancing the conductivity of Li 2 ZrCl 6 electrolytes, promoting their applications in solid-state batteries.

Sodium-rich antiperovskite (NaRAP) ionic conductors have been considered promising inorganic electrolytes for all-solid-state sodium batteries due to their low fabrication cost, high sodium ionic conductivity and good structural tolerance. The high structural flexibility of NaRAPs allows variety of chemical substitutions to improve conductivity; in particular, the substitution of the anion cluster has effectively proved promoting Na+ migration, both experimentally and theoretically. Herein, we report an unexpected boost in Na+ ionic conductivity that climbs to 0.37 mS cm−1 at 485 K by introducing NO2− groups in the antiperovskite Na3ONO2 system. Its mechanism was fully investigated by neutron powder diffraction and DFT calculations, proving that the NO2− group on the lattice center, can utilize its terminal O2− anion to facilitate the Na+ migration via the Na–O interaction, when thermally excited at 485 K. The detailed migration path is also discussed by both maximum entropy method (MEM) and DFT calculations.

The lithium dendrite problem of Li 7 La 3 Zr 1.4 Ta 0.6 O 12 (LLZTO) solid electrolyte restricts the practical application and development of all-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSLBs). Herein, a LiPON interlayer with Li + conductive and electron non-conductive dynamic properties is constructed at the Li/LLZTO interface. Results show that the electronic conductivity of solid electrolyte after LiPON modification decreased by nearly three orders of magnitude, indicating that it has good ability to hinder electron conduction . The interlayer enhances the wettability between the Li metal anode and LLZTO, resulting in a decrease of battery resistance from 3400 Ω to 700 Ω. The critical current density of the ASSLBs increase from 0.1 mA cm −2 to 1.2 mA cm −2 at room temperature, and the battery cycle number increase from 31 h to over 1000 h. XPS deep etching results show that the LiPON/LLZTO interface has good electrochemical stability. The Kelvin probe force microscope displays a sharp increase in potential within the LiPON interlayer, indicating its successful hindrance of electron conduction to the solid electrolyte. The effective inhibition of lithium dendrites growth is due to LiPON can promote the Li + transmission from LLZTO solid electrolyte to Li anode, and also hinder the electron conduction to LLZTO to form lithium dendrites.

Solid-state electrolytes with high ionic conductivity , large electrochemical window, good mechanical properties , and easy processability are needed for high-energy solid-state lithium batteries . In this work, composite membranes consisting of lithium garnet (i.e. Li 6.4 La 3 Zr 1.4 Ta 0.6 O 12 , LLZTO) particles and Li-salt-free polyethylene oxides (PEOs) are produced as solid-state electrolytes. Li-ion-conducting particles in nano-scale are crucial for the enhancement of conductivity and the membranes containing ~40 nm LLZTO particles exhibit conductivities nearly two orders of magnitude larger than those with the micro-scale ones, which is attributed to the difference in specific surface area related to the percolation effect. Compared to the conventional PEO doped with lithium salt, the insulating PEO in PEO:LLZTO membrane electrolyte is conducive to the suppression of lithium dendrite growth owing to prohibition of current flow. With PEO:LLZTO membrane electrolytes in conductivity of 2.1×10 −4 S cm −1 at 30 °C and 5.6×10 −4 S cm −1 at 60 °C, the solid-state LiFePO 4 /PEO:LLZTO/Li and LiFe 0.15 Mn 0.85 PO 4 /PEO:LLZTO/Li cells deliver energy densities of 345 Wh kg −1 (662 Wh L −1 ) and 405 Wh kg −1 (700 Wh L −1 ) (without the package weight or volume) with good rate capability and cycling performance. This study suggests that the conjunction of nano-scale Li-ion-conducting particles and an insulating polymer provides a promising solution to produce powerful solid-state electrolytes for high-performance solid-state lithium batteries .

A novel cheap eutectogel (ETG) membrane based on the deep eutectic solvent (DES) immobilized poly (vinylidene fluoride-hexafluoro propylene) (PVDF-HFP) is proposed as a solid electrolyte for safe lithium metal batteries in this study. The composition of DES is optimized, which is prepared by mixing the N-methylacetamide (NMAC) and the lithium bis [(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]imid (LiTFSI) with a molar ratio of 4:1. The eutectogel is formed by incorporating 70 wt% DES into the PVDF-HFP, which is non-flammable and shows excellent mechanical properties. This ETG membrane electrolyte with a thickness about 25 μm possess a high ionic conductivity (3.05 × 10 −4 S cm −1 ) at room temperature and a wide electrochemical stability window (~5 V). The Li//ETG//LiFePO 4 full cells deliver an acceptable discharge capacity of ~133.9 mAh g −1 at 0.1C and room temperature after 100 charge-discharge cycles. The ETG membrane electrolyte can also endow the Li//ETG//LiFePO 4 pouch cell with flexibility and withstanding abuse operations, like nail penetration and cutting. We expect that the flexible and non-flammable eutectogel membrane will have implications for the use of DES based ionic liquids in the synthesis of advanced solid-state electrolytes for safer lithium batteries .

A novel single-ion conducting polymer electrolyte (SIPE) membrane with high lithium-ion transference number, good mechanical strength, and excellent ionic conductivity is designed and synthesized by facile coupling of lithium bis(allylmalonato) borate (LiBAMB), pentaerythritol tetrakis (2-mercaptoacetate) (PETMP) and 3,6-dioxa-1,8-octanedithiol (DODT) in an electrospun poly(vinylidienefluoride) (PVDF) supporting membrane via a one-step photoinitiated in situ thiol–ene click reaction. The structure-optimized LiBAMB-PETMP-DODT (LPD)@PVDF SIPE shows an outstanding ionic conductivity of 1.32 × 10 −3 S cm −1 at 25 °C, together with a high lithium-ion transference number of 0.92 and wide electrochemical window up to 6.0 V. The SIPE exhibits high tensile strength of 7.2 MPa and elongation at break of 269%. Due to these superior performances, the SIPE can suppress lithium dendrite growth, which is confirmed by galvanostatic Li plating/stripping cycling test and analysis of morphology of Li metal electrode surface after cycling test. Li|LPD@PVDF|Li symmetric cell maintains an extremely stable and low overpotential without short circuiting over the 1050 h cycle. The Li|LPD@PVDF|LiFePO 4 cell shows excellent rate capacity and outstanding cycle performance compared to cells based on a conventional liquid electrolyte (LE) with Celgard separator. The facile approach of the SIPE provides an effective and promising electrolyte for safe, long-life, and high-rate lithium metal batteries.

Double network hydrogels (DN gels) are one of most extensively investigated high strength hydrogels. However, most of DN gels are concern to macromolecules , low-molecular-weight gelators (LMWG)-based supramolecular hydrogels are rarely reported to fabricate recoverable DN gels. Owing to the low mechanical properties, LMWG-based supramolecular hydrogels are hardly fabricated as conductive materials for human motion monitoring. Herein, we report a general strategy to fabricate strong, tough and conductive cholate-based supramolecular gels with double network (DN) structure (i.e. La-cholate/PAAm DN gels), consisting of La-cholate supramolecular gel as first network and covalent polyacrylamide gel (PAAm gel) as second network, in which La-cholate supramolecular gel was self-assembled by La 3+ ions and sodium cholate under sonication via the synergistic effect of hydrogen bonds , hydrophobic interactions and metal-coordination. At optimal condition, La-cholate/PAAm DN gel exhibited high tensile properties (fracture stress of 0.314 MPa, fracture strain of 29.85 mm/mm, elastic modulus of 90 kPa, and work of extension of 5.678 MJ/m 3 ) and high toughness (tearing energy of 1098 J/m 2 ), which are comparable to conventional chemical or hybrid DN gels. Meanwhile, La-cholate/PAAm DN gel also showed rapid self-recovery property (stiffness recovery of 84% and toughness recovery of 46% after resting for 3 min) at room temperature and λ-dependent luminescent property under UV-light. More importantly, cholate-based supramolecular gels with DN structure could be prepared with various metal ions and monomers . Interestingly, our cholate-based DN gels were ionically conductive, which could be used as strain sensor to finely detect the human motions. We hope our design principles, along with the simple method and cholate-based DN gels, can be generally applied to develop a new generation of strong and tough LMWG-based supramolecular hydrogels with various functionalities.

Chitosan derivative-based self-healable hydrogels with enhanced mechanical properties are reported, which were prepared by polymerization of acrylic acid (AAc) in 2-hydroxypropyltrimethyl ammonium chloride chitosan (HACC) solution. The PAAc/HACC hydrogels exhibit tensile fracture stress as high as 3.31 MPa and a Young's modulus of 2.53 MPa. They can maintain their original shape after 30 repeated compression cycles under various strain conditions, with a compression stress of more than 60 MPa at 99% strain. The damaged PAAc/HACC hydrogels can heal together in the presence of a NaCl salt solution with a self-healing efficiency of up to 61%. In addition, the PAAc/HACC hydrogels have high ionic conductivity and can serve as electrolytes for supercapacitors. The analysis suggests that all these good properties of the PAAc/HACC hydrogels mainly result from their high-density dynamic ionic interactions structure.
