Abstract:Volatile, flammable carbonate-based liquid electrolytes, although they show good electrochemical performance suitable for practical use, have posed a critical threat to safeties of lithium-ion batteries. This safety concern becomes more serious in newly-emerging application fields such as (hybrid) electric vehicles and grid scale energy storage systems, which employ large-sized, high-capacity lithium-ion batteries. One promising solution to address the liquid electrolyte-induced safety issues is to replace wit… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
