Recent research progress on quasi-solid-state electrolytes for dye-sensitized solar cells

Dye-sensitized solar cells(DSSCs) are the most promising, low cost and most extensively investigated solar cells. They are famous for their clean and efficient solar energy conversion. Nevertheless this, long-time stability is still to be acquired. In recent years research on solid and quasi-solid state electrolytes is extensively increased. Various quasi-solid electrolytes, including composites polymer electrolytes, ionic liquid electrolytes,thermoplastic polymer electrolytes and thermosetting polymer electrolytes have been used. Performance and stability of a quasi-solid state electrolyte are between liquid and solid electrolytes. High photovoltaic performances of QS-DSSCs along better long-term stability can be obtained by designing and optimizing quasi-solid electrolytes. It is a prospective candidate for highly efficient and stable DSSCs.

In this review, recent progresses on the applications of IL/PIL-based semi-solid state electrolytes, including gel electrolytes, ionic plastic crystal electrolytes, hybrid electrolytes and single-ion conducting electrolytes for lithium-ion batteries are discussed.     

Water-in-salt electrolytes: An interfacial perspective

Liquid electrolytes with high ionic conductivity, high transference number for the target ions, and excellent electrochemical, chemical, and thermal stability are essential for electrochemical energy storage devices. Water-in-salt (WIS) electrolytes, in which the salt–water ratio is larger than one, are gaining intensive attention in the electrochemical community. Here, we review the recent work on WIS electrolytes and the closely related water-in-ionic liquid electrolytes. We highlight the fact that many properties of these electrolytes, in bulk and at electrolyte–electrode interfaces, are underpinned by the physics and chemistry of the interfaces formed between water and ions (or aggregated water/ion clusters). Manipulating these interfaces by tailoring the selection of ions and water–ion ratio opens up new dimensions in the optimization of liquid electrolytes but also poses new challenges. We conclude the review by highlighting several directions for research on WIS electrolytes, in particular, the study of WIS electrolyte–electrode interfaces using surface force measurements.

On the way to high-conductivity single lithium-ion conductors

Solid electrolytes can potentially address three key limitations of the organic electrolytes used in today’s lithium-ion batteries, namely, their flammability, limited electrochemical stability and low cationic transference number. The pioneering works of Wright and Armand, suggesting the use of solid poly(ethylene oxide)-based polymer electrolytes (PE) for lithium batteries, paved the way to the development of solid-state batteries based on PEs. Yet, low cationic mobility–low Li⁺ transference number in polymer materials coupled with sufficiently high room-temperature conductivity remains inaccessible. The current strategies employed for the production of single-ion polymer conductors include designing new lithium salts, bonding of anions with the main polyether chain or incorporating them into the side chains of comb-branched polymers, plasticizing, adding inorganic fillers and anion receptors. Glass and crystalline superionic solids are classical single-ion-conducting electrolytes. However, because of grain boundaries and poor electrode/electrolyte interfacial contacts, achieving electrochemical performance in solid-state batteries comprising polycrystalline inorganic electrolytes, comparable to the existing batteries with liquid electrolytes, is particularly challenging. Quasi-elastic polymer-in-ceramic electrolytes provide good alternatives to the traditional lithium-ion-battery electrolytes and are believed to be the subject of extensive current research. This review provides an account of the advances over the past decade in the development of single-ion-conducting electrolytes and offers some directions and references that may be useful for further investigations.

With these efforts, we want to present new insights into rational design of PEO-based electrolytes to develop solid-state lithium batteries for advanced performance.     

Critical challenges and progress of solid garnet electrolytes for all-solid-state batteries

Significant safety problems and poor cyclic stability of conventional lithium-ion batteries, which based on organic liquid electrolytes, hinder their practical application, while all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) are considered the most promising candidates to replace traditional lithium-ion batteries. As a critical component of ASSBs, solid-state electrolytes play an essential role in ion transport properties and stability.

Recent Progress in Organic–Inorganic Composite Solid Electrolytes for All-Solid-State Lithium Batteries

Conventional lithium-ion batteries, with flammable organic liquid electrolytes, have serious safety problems, which greatly limit their application. All-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) have received extensive attention from large-scale energy-storage fields, such as electric vehicles (EVs) and intelligent power grids, due to their benefits in safety, energy density, and thermostability. As the key component of ASSBs, solid electrolytes determine the properties of ASSBs. In past decades, various kinds of solid electrolytes, such as polymers and inorganic electrolytes, have been explored. Among these candidates, organic–inorganic composite solid electrolytes (CSEs) that integrate the advantages of these two different electrolytes have been regarded as promising electrolytes for high-performance ASSBs, and extensive studies have been carried out. Herein, recent progress in organic–inorganic CSEs is summarized in terms of the inorganic component, electrochemical performance, effects of the inorganic ceramic nanostructure, and ionic conducting mechanism. Finally, the main challenges and perspectives of organic–inorganic CSEs are highlighted for future development.

Fabrication of high Li:water molar ratio electrolytes for lithium-ion batteries

Hydrous electrolytes with high electrochemical potentials were obtained by hydrating water molecules into solutes to form high Li:water molar ratio electrolytes(HMRE).Solid polyethylene glycol(PEG) were e mployed to enha nce the molar ratio of Li+to water in the electrolytes while reducing the consumption of Li-salt.The obtained mole ratio of Li~+ to wa ter molecules in the hydrous electrolytes was greater than 1:1;however,the mass fraction of Li-salt was reduced to 61%(approximately 5.5 mol/kg,based on water and PEG).Compared with that of water-in-salt electrolytes,the mass fraction of Li-salt could be remarkably reduced by adding solid PEG.The electrochemical stability of the electrolytes improved considerably because of the strong hydration of Li~+ by the water molecules.A beneficial passivation effect,arising from the decomposition of the electrolyte,at a wide potential window was observed.     

Influence of pH*-value of methanolic electrolytes on electroosmotic flow in hydrophilic coated capillaries

The dependency of EOF on the H+-concentration and the related so called pH* value of methanolic electrolytes has been examined with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and uncoated capillaries. These results were compared with the pH dependency of EOF of these capillaries using aqueous buffers. In uncoated capillaries the dependency of EOF on the pH(*)-value is very similar for aqueous and methanolic electrolytes. The EOF increases with increasing H+-concentration and pH-hysteresis is observed. In PVA coated capillaries the EOF is strongly reduced over wide pH* or pH ranges for both methanolic electrolytes and aqueous buffers. The EOF in PEG coated capillaries is surprisingly directed to the anode with methanolic electrolytes whereas a reduced cathodic EOF is observed in aqueous electrolytes. The anodic EOF of PEG-coated capillaries in methanolic electrolytes is independent of the pH*-value. The usefulness of PEG- and PVA-coated capillaries for adjusting the EOF in non-aqueous electrolytes for the analysis of isomeric organic acids was demonstrated.     

Superhalogens as Building Blocks of Halogen‐Free Electrolytes in Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Most electrolytes currently used in Li‐ion batteries contain halogens, which are toxic. In the search for halogen‐free electrolytes, we studied the electronic structure of the current electrolytes using first‐principles theory. The results showed that all current electrolytes are based on superhalogens, i.e., the vertical electron detachment energies of the moieties that make up the negative ions are larger than those of any halogen atom. Realizing that several superhalogens exist that do not contain a single halogen atom, we studied their potential as effective electrolytes by calculating not only the energy needed to remove a Li⁺ ion but also their affinity towards H₂O. Several halogen‐free electrolytes are identified among which Li(CB₁₁H₁₂) is shown to have the greatest potential.
