Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) as fast lithium-ion transport fillers for solid polymer electrolytes
The incorporation of inorganic electrolyte fillers into solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) provides fast Li-ion transport channels, enhancing the ionic conductivity of SPEs. However, their insufficient specific surface area and poor compatibility with the polymer matrix impede the efficient diffusion of Li-ions from polymer into fillers, thereby limiting further advancements in SPEs. To address this challenge, we propose the utilization of covalent organic frameworks (COFs), TpPa-SO 3 Li, as fillers due to their rapid Li + transport properties, favorable compatibility with the polymer matrix, and ultra-high specific surface area. Validated by in-situ conductive AFM and DFT calculation, TpPa-SO 3 Li provides high-speed Li + transport pathways in the polyvinylidene fluoride-based SPEs (PVDF-TpPaSO 3 Li). This is attributed to their higher affinity energy of −1.93 eV compared to 1.34 eV of PVDF and their low Li + migrating barrier of 0.35 eV. Consequently, PVDF-TpPaSO 3 Li exhibits an outstanding ion conductivity of 1.93 mS cm −1 at 30 °C, an enhanced ion transfer number of 0.44, and a desirable mechanical strength of 13.5 MPa. The lithium-symmetrical batteries with PVDF-TpPaSO 3 Li exhibit stable Li stripping/plating cycling for 2500h at 60 °C and 0.1 mA cm −2 . Similarly, LiFePO 4 /Li batteries also display stable cycling with a retention in capacity of 93.83 % after 300 cycles at 0.5C.
