Differential electrochemical mass spectrometry (DEMS) was used to study the electrochemical decomposition of organic carbonate electrolyte solutions at practical lithium metal oxide composite electrodes used in lithium-ion batteries. For propylene carbonate (PC), CO{sub 2} evolution was detected at LiNiO{sub 2}, LiCoO{sub 2}, and LiMn{sub 2}O{sub 4} composite electrodes. The starting point of gas evolution was 4.2 V vs. Li/Li{sup +} at LiNiO{sub 2}, whereas at LiCoO{sub 2} and LiMn{sub 2}O{sub 4}, CO{sub 2} evolution was observed only above 4.8 V vs. Li/Li{sup +}. In addition, various other volatile electrolyte decomposition products of PC were detected when using LiCoO{sub 2}, LiMn{sub 2}O{sub 4}, and carbon black electrodes. In ethylene carbonate/dimethylcarbonate, CO{sub 2} evolution was detected only at LiNiO{sub 2} electrodes, again starting at about 4.2 V vs. Li/Li{sup +}.
