Electrolytes and electrochemical devices

Patent ·
OSTI ID:2542061
Disclosed herein are electrolytes and electrochemical devices. The electrochemical devices comprise cathodes that include nickel-rich layered lithium transition metal oxides, lithium-rich layered transition-metal oxides, lithium manganese-based spinel oxides, lithium polyanion-based compounds, and combinations thereof. The electrolytes include a lithium imide salt, an aprotic acyclic carbonate solvent, and an additive, wherein the additive comprises a metal salt, an aprotic solvent, or a combination thereof. The electrolyte can be stable at a voltage of 4.3 V or above vs. Li/Li+.
