Flammable, Toxic and Not Performant Enough: Is There a Chance to Get Rid of Liquid Organic Electrolytes?

摘要

1 The electrolyte is key for performance of present and future chemistries 2 Non-Aqueous Organic Liquid Electrolytes (LEs) play a dominant role in industry 3 Alternative electrolyte play a dominant role in academia 4 Non-aqueous LEs are poorly understood 4.1 Mechanisms of decomposition still not clarified 4.2 Toxicity of decomposition products of non-aqueous LEs needs further clarification 4.3 Metal ion dissolution does not depend on the HF content 4.4 HF formation does depend on water and not on temperature.
