“…Up to now, much effort has been devoted to the development of nonflammable electrolytes, such as ionic liquid [ 26 , 27 , 28 ], fluorine-containing solvent [ 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 ], organic phosphate ester solvent [ 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 ] and solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) [ 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 ]. Although SSEs are considered as alternative electrolytes for the development of LMBs, the low ionic conductivity and inferior interface compatibility limit their further large-scale application in high-energy-density LMBs [ 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 ]. Due to the superior flame retardation and cost effectiveness, organic phosphate became one of many promising solvents in nonflammable electrolytes [ 48 , 49 , 50 ]; however, most phosphate ester flame retardants usually show poor compatibility with lithium metal anodes.…”
