Abstract
AbstractHigh-voltage lithium metal batteries suffer from poor cycling stability caused by the detrimental effect on the cathode of the water moisture present in the non-aqueous liquid electrolyte solution, especially at high operating temperatures (e.g., ≥60 °C). To circumvent this issue, here we report lithium hexamethyldisilazide (LiHMDS) as an electrolyte additive. We demonstrate that the addition of a 0.6 wt% of LiHMDS in a typical fluorine-containing carbonate-based non-aqueous electrolyte solution enables a stable Li||LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 (NCM811) coin cell operation up to 1000 or 500 cycles applying a high cut-off cell voltage of 4.5 V in the 25 °C−60 °C temperature range. The LiHMDS acts as a scavenger for hydrofluoric acid and water and facilitates the formation of an (electro)chemical robust cathode|electrolyte interphase (CEI). The LiHMDS-derived CEI prevents the Ni dissolution of NCM811, mitigates the irreversible phase transformation from layered structure to rock-salt phase and suppresses the side reactions with the electrolyte solution.
