Article Synopsis
  • - The study focuses on improving lithium-metal batteries (LMBs) by using a highly concentrated electrolyte strategy to enhance amide usage, which helps control lithium reactivity and improves lithium deposition.
  • - To reduce costs in electrolyte preparation, researchers propose a new approach using dilute amide electrolytes (1 m Li-salt concentration) combined with perfluoropolyethers and specific additives to create a stable anion-rich lithium solvation structure.
  • - The resulting optimized electrolyte with N,N-Dimethyltrifluoroacetamide shows excellent compatibility and performance in both lab and practical applications, marking a significant advancement for stable lithium deposition and enhanced battery performance in LMBs.

A straightforward hybrid approach of a blend cathode is put forward to alleviate self-discharged anion-graphite intercalation compounds in dual-ion batteries. The self-discharge mechanism of the LiNiMnO/graphite blend cathode is investigated by conventional electrochemical tests and X-ray diffraction measurements. A charging behavior between electrode materials during self-discharge has been discovered.
