Li-Ion Battery Electrolyte: Key Functions, Design, and How It Works
The main electrolyte in lithium-ion batteries is lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6) in organic carbonates. This non-aqueous electrolyte supports the movement of lithium ions (Li+). Other types, like polymer-based and ionic liquid electrolytes, can improve battery efficiency and performance. The design of the Li-Ion battery electrolyte consists of a solvent, such as ethylene carbonate, and a lithium … Read more
