Nonadditive effects of nonaqueous electrolyte components on the electrochemical behavior of lithium

Lithium electrode surfaces passivate in nonaqueous electrolytes. For this reason, high-energy-density lithium batteries can be stored, but at the same time anodic lithium dissolution during initial discharge of the battery is delayed. For an optimization of the anode characteristics and the battery performance the authors of this paper seek to determine the factors governing the parameters of the passivating film under the influence of various nonaqueous electrolyte solutions. The influence of electrolyte composition on the electrochemical behavior and electrical conductivity and impedance of the film was tested for sulfur-dioxide-containing electrolytes based on propylene carbonate, acetonitrile, DMSO, and lithium perchlorate.
