The Role of Salt Concentration in Stabilizing Charged Ni-Rich Cathode Interfaces in Li-ion Batteries
Abstract
<jats:p>The cathode-electrolyte interphase (CEI) in Li-ion batteries plays a key role in suppressing undesired side-reactions whilst facilitating Li-ion transport. Ni-rich layered cathode materials offer improved energy densities, but their high interfacial reactivities can negatively impact cycle life and rate performance. Here we investigate the role of electrolyte salt concentration, specifically LiPF6 (0.5-5 m), in altering the interfacial reactivity of charged LiN0.8Mn0.1Co0.1O2 (NMC811) cathodes in standard carbonate based electrolytes (EC:EMC vol%:vol% 3:7). Extended potential holds of NMC811/Li4Ti5O12 (LTO) cells reveal that the parasitic electrolyte oxidation currents observed are strongly dependent on the electrolyte salt concentration. X-ray photoelectron and absorption spectroscopy (XPS/XAS) reveal that a thicker LixPOyFz-/LiF-rich CEI is formed in the more highly concentrated electrolytes. This suppresses reactions with solvent molecules resulting in a thinner, or less-dense, reduced surface layer (RSL) with lower charge transfer resistance, and lower oxidation currents at high potentials. The thicker CEI also limits access of acidic species to the RSL suppressing transition metal dissolution into the electrolyte, as confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES). This provides insight into the main degradation processes occurring at Ni-rich cathode interfaces in contact with carbonate based electrolytes, and how electrolyte formulation can help to mitigate these.</jats:p>
