(Invited) Lithium Borates for Lithium-Ion Battery Electrolytes

Plating-stripping and corrosion tests have been carried out at electrolyte solution containing lithium difluoro(oxalato)borate (LiDFOB) as a lithium salt. For comparison, also electrolytes containing other common borate salts have been investigated. After these tests, the same electrolyte solutions have been used in combination with lithium iron phosphate base electrodes at RT. The results of these studies are reported in this paper.
