Zusammenfassung:The uneven growth of lithium dendrites not only compromise the performance of lithium metal batteries, but also has security risks. In this sutudy, double coating with MgF 2 and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose was synthesized on the surface of polyethylene separator through a simple soaking and in‐situ chemical precipitation method, achieve the purpose of protecting lithium metal anode. Utilizing the MgF 2 /HPMC@PE separator, the Li||Li symmetric cell was capable of cycling for over 1000 hours with a voltage hysteresis of only 11.4 mV, comparing the voltage hysteresis based on the cell use of PE separator increases rapidly after 200 h. Furthermore, the initial discharge capacity of Li||LiNi 0.6 Co 0.2 Mn 0.2 O 2 (NCM622) is 144.6 mAh g −1 and the capacity retention is 87.2 % after 200 cycles at 1 C, which is higher than that of the PE separator (135.3 mAh g −1 , with retention of 74.9 %). All improvements can be credited with the formation of stable solid electrolyte interphase(SEI) film induced by HPMC/MgF 2 double coating, which is reduced the Li nucleation overpotential and ultimately promoted uniform Li deposition. This study provides a simple and effective strategy for improving the cycling performance and safety of lithium metal batteries.
