摘要

Polymer electrolytes based on poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO) show significant potential for use in all solid-state lithium metal batteries. Improving the ionic conductivity, broaden the electrochemical stability window and flame retardant property of solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) is vital for developing safer, higher-energy–density batteries. This paper introduces an innovative flame retardant strategy based on the unique chemical structure of phosphonitrile fluoride, by incorporating ethoxy pentafluorocyclotriphosphonitrile (PFPN) as a functional additive, the strategy not only reduces PEO crystallinity and improves electrochemical performance at quasi-room temperature but also enhances oxidation resistance and widens the electrochemical window. Additionally, PFPN confers flame retardant properties to PEO, thereby enhancing battery safety and facilitating the creation of a high-performance polymer solid electrolyte. The optimized solid-state electrolyte exhibited an ionic conductivity of 8.2 × 10–4 S cm−1 at 60 °C. The electrochemical window was expanded to 5.1 V, and the LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2/FNOP-10/Li cell maintained a capacity of 123 mAh g−1 after 100 cycles at 0.2C at 60 °C. And the Li/FNOP-10/Li cell was able to cycle stably for more than 1400 h at a current density of 0.1 mA cm−2, and no short-circuiting caused by lithium dendrites was observed. These results demonstrate that the proposed method significantly enhances the overall performance of the electrolyte.
