Rejuvenating Propylene Carbonate‐based Electrolyte Through Nonsolvating Interactions for Wide‐Temperature Li‐ions Batteries
Abstract
The advancements of lithium‐ion batteries indubitably call for advanced electrolytes with superior environmental adaptability and long‐term stability. Propylene carbonate (PC) proves to be a competitive solvent with the high permittivity and wide‐liquid range, while the application is intrinsically hindered by the poor graphite compatibility and high viscosity. Here, a PC‐based electrolyte with wide‐temperature range is developed by tuning the strength and topology of the Li + ‐PC interactions via non‐solvating interactions without altering the solvation structure. Thus, the problem of graphite exfoliation caused by Li + ‐PC co‐intercalation can be successfully mitigated. Consequently, such electrolyte shows compatibility with both graphite and high‐nickel cathode, exhibiting an expanded liquid range from −90 to 90 °C. This work, breaking from the traditional EC‐based formula, provides a new strategy for designing PC‐enabled electrolyte featuring high performance, wide‐temperature compatibility, and sustainability

“It is well known that the ICE ranges of graphite materials are 80–92% [13–15], while Si or SiO x materials have relatively low ICEs of 65–85% or 65–82% [16–21] due to the irreversible side reactions from SEI formation and huge volume variations during cycling [22,23].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
