The stability of the commercial electrolyte is linked to the internal solvent molecule, particularly in enhancing the stability of these molecules. Hereby, we introduce a dual function strategy involving hydrogen bond induced solvent molecules and the in situ fabrication cathode-electrolyte interphase (CEI) to address this issue. The additive -(4-(2,5-dioxo-4-oxazolidinyl)butyl)-2,2,2-trifluoroacetamide (DOTFA), with its oxazolidinyl and trifluoroacetamide functional units, establishes hydrogen bonds with the solvent, forming CEI films on the cathode surface that enhance the antioxidation ability of the electrolyte.

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are known for their high energy density but exhibit poor cyclic stability and safety risks due to side reactions between the electrode and electrolyte. To address these issues, a novel approach involving construction of a polymer coating layer (PCL) self-polymerization using 2,2,3,4,4,4-hexafluorobutyl methacrylate (HFBM) as an electrolyte additive on the cathode is proposed. The PCL endows the electrolyte with a high onset oxidation potential (4.
