Superconcentrated electrolytes for a high-voltage lithium-ion battery
Abstract
Electrode degradation due to metal-ion dissolution in conventional electrolyte hampers the performance of 5 V-class lithium ion batteries. Here, the authors employ a high concentration electrolyte to inhibit metal-ion dissolution and realize a stable high voltage LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4/graphite battery.
