Abstract:It is well-known that charge-discharge reactions of graphite electrode cannot take place in propylene carbonate (PC) based electrolyte solutions. Since the melting point of PC is much lower than that of ethylene carbonate (EC), PC-based electrolyte solutions are preferable when lithium-ion batteries are operated in the lower temperature regions.
Vast work has been done on graphite electrodes in PC-based electrolyte solutions. One of our colleagues, Jeong found that concentrated salt PC solution… 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.
