Boosting lithium-ion transport capability of LAGP/PPO composite solid electrolyte via component regulation from ‘Ceramics-in-Polymer’ to ‘Polymer-in-Ceramics'

The design and regulation of the ion transport channels in the polymer electrolyte is an important means to improve the lithium ion transport behavior of the electrolyte. In this work, we for the first time combined the high ionic conductive inorganic ceramic electrolyte Li_1.5Al_0.5Ge_1.5(PO₄)₃ (LAGP) with flexible polypropylene oxide (PPO) polymer electrolyte to synthesize a high-filling LAGP/PPO composite solid electrolyte film and regulated the ion transport channels from ‘Ceramics-in-Polymer’ mode to ‘Polymer-in-Ceramics' mode by optimizing the ratio of LAGP vs. PPO. The results reveal that when the LAGP content <40%, the electrolyte belongs to ‘LAGP-in-PPO’, and then changes to ‘PPO-in-LAGP’ when the LAGP content exceeds 40%. Compared with ‘LAGP-in-PPO’, the ‘PPO-in-LAGP’ shows better comprehensive properties, especially for the 75% LAGP-filled PPO electrolyte, the room-temperature ionic conductivity is as high as 3.46 × 10^?4 Scm^?1, the ion migration number and voltage stable window reach 0.83 and 4.78 V respectively. This high-filled composite electrolyte possesses high tensile stress of 40 MPa with a strain of 46% and withstands working environment up to 200 °C. The NCM622/Li solid-state battery composed of this electrolyte also presents good rate and cycle performances with a capacity retention of 80% after 230 cycles at 0.3C because of its high ion transport capability and good inhibition of lithium dendrites. This composite structural design is expected to develop high-performance solid-state electrolytes suitable for high-voltage solid-state lithium batteries.     

Interfacial reaction during co-sintering of lithium manganese nickel oxide and lithium aluminum germanium phosphate

Understanding interface evolution during co-sintering of solid Li-ion conducting electrolytes and Li-metal oxide cathodes is crucial to development of solid state batteries. In this work, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and thermal gravimetric analysis/differential scanning calorimetry (TGA/DSC) document changes at the lithium manganese nickel oxide (LMNO)/lithium aluminum germanium phosphate interface during sintering. Measurements are performed as a function of sintering gas environment (air vs N₂). Upon sintering, manganese is reduced from +4 to a mixture of +4, +3, and +2, while nickel is oxidized from +2 to a mixture of +2 and +3. The Mn²⁺ species does not arise when LMNO is sintered alone. XRD identifies formation of new chemical phases, LiGe_0.5M_0.5PO₄ (where M = Mn³⁺ or Ni³⁺), AlPO₄, and NiMn₂O₄, also not observed when LMNO is sintered alone. The emergence of resistive interfacial phases may offset the increase in conductivity expected when Mn³⁺ is formed.     

Cold sintering process of Li1.5Al0.5Ge1.5(PO4)3 solid electrolyte

The recently developed technique of cold sintering process (CSP) enables densification of ceramics at low temperatures, i.e., <300°C. CSP employs a transient aqueous solvent to enable liquid phase‐assisted densification through mediating the dissolution‐precipitation process under a uniaxial applied pressure. Using CSP in this study, 80% dense Li_1.5Al_0.5Ge_1.5(PO₄)₃ (LAGP) electrolytes were obtained at 120°C in 20 minutes. After a 5 minute belt furnace treatment at 650°C, 50°C above the crystallization onset, Li‐ion conductivity was 5.4 × 10^?5 S/cm at 25°C. Another route to high ionic conductivities ~10^?4 S/cm at 25°C is through a composite LAGP ‐ (PVDF‐HFP) co‐sintered system that was soaked in a liquid electrolyte. After soaking 95, 90, 80, 70, and 60 vol% LAGP in 1 M LiPF₆ EC‐DMC (50:50 vol%) at 25°C, Li‐ion conductivities were 1.0 × 10^?4 S/cm at 25°C with 5 to 10 wt% liquid electrolyte. This paper focuses on the microstructural development and impedance contributions within solid electrolytes processed by (i) Crystallization of bulk glasses, (ii) CSP of ceramics, and (iii) CSP of ceramic‐polymer composites. CSP may offer a new route to enable multilayer battery technology by avoiding the detrimental effects of high temperature heat treatments.     

Solid‐state single‐ion conducting comb‐like siloxane copolymer electrolyte with improved conductivity and electrochemical window for lithium batteries

Achievement of high conductivity and electrochemical window at ambient temperature for an all‐solid polymer electrolyte used in lithium ion batteries is a challenge. Here, we report the synthesis and characterization of a novel solid‐state single‐ion electrolytes based on comb‐like siloxane copolymer with pendant lithium 4‐styrenesulfonyl (perfluorobutylsulfonyl) imide and poly(ethylene glycol). The highly delocalized anionic charges of ? SO₂? N^(–)? C₄F₉ have a weak association with lithium ions, resulting in the increase of mobile lithium ions number. The designed polymer electrolytes possess ultra‐low glass transition temperature in the range from ?73 to ?54 °C due to the special flexible polysiloxane. Promising electrochemical properties have been obtained, including a remarkably high conductivity of 3.7 × 10^?5 S/cm and electrochemical window of 5.2 V (vs. Li⁺/Li) at room temperature. A high lithium ion transference number of 0.80, and good compatibility with anode were also observed. These prominent characteristics endow the polymer electrolyte a potential for the application in high safety lithium ion batteries. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

Dual Doping: An Effective Method to Enhance the Electrochemical Properties of Li10GeP2S12‐Based Solid Electrolytes

Multiple doping is widely used to improve the performance of a material, including its electrical transport, mechanical, and photovoltaic properties. In this paper, Sn–Se dual‐doped Li₁₀GeP₂S₁₂ (LGPS, thio‐LISICON II analogue) electrolytes were synthesized via ball milling and sintering and compared with those Sn or Se single‐doped. Successful Sn and/or Se substitution expanded the unit cell and formed units, which were verified by X‐ray powder diffraction, energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy, and Raman spectroscopy. In contrast to the limited benefits of Se single doping and the negative effects of Sn single doping, Sn–Se dual doping demonstrated up to 53% enhancement in ionic conductivity. More importantly, Sn–Se dual‐doped LGPS showed an extremely low activation energy of 16 kJ/mol, which is one of the lowest known values for lithium ion conductors; as well as one of the widest electrochemical windows of 8 V. Sn–Se dual‐doped LGPS is a promising electrolyte for advanced all‐solid‐state batteries.     

Interfacial reactions at electrode/electrolyte boundary in all solid-state lithium battery using inorganic solid electrolyte, thio-LISICON

Electrode/electrolyte interface was studied for all solid-state batteries using inorganic solid electrolyte with the crystalline thio-LISICON and glassy Li-Si-P-S-O systems. The formation of the interfacial phase depends on the electrolyte. The thio-LISICON (Li_3.25Ge_0.25P_0.75S₄) and the Li-Al negative electrode provided the best electrode/electrolyte interface for fast charge-discharge characteristics, while the SEI phase formed at the Li-Al/Li₃PO₄-Li₂S-SiS₂ glass boundary caused high interfacial resistance. The formation of the SEI phase is general behavior at the electrode/electrolyte interface of solid-state batteries, and the fast electrochemical reaction is attained as a result of optimization of the electrode/electrolyte combination.     

Oxide Electrolytes for Lithium Batteries

As the most promising candidate of the solid electrolyte materials for future lithium batteries, oxide electrolytes with high–lithium‐ion conductivity have experienced a rapid development in the past few decades. Existing oxide electrolytes are divided into two groups, i.e., crystalline group including NASICON, perovskite, garnet, and some newly developing structures, and amorphous/glass group including Li₂O–MO_x (M = Si, B, P, etc.) and LiPON‐related materials. After a historical perspective on the general development of oxide electrolytes, we try to give a comprehensive review on the oxide electrolytes with high–lithium‐ion conductivity, with special emphasis on the aspect of materials selection and design for applications as solid electrolytes in lithium batteries. Some successful examples and meaningful attempts on the incorporation of oxide electrolytes in lithium batteries are also presented. In the conclusion part, an outlook for the future direction of oxide electrolytes development is given.     

Investigation of lithium ion kinetics through LiMn2O4 electrode in aqueous Li2SO4 electrolyte

Spinel LiMn₂O₄ was prepared by sol–gel method and characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscope. Cyclic voltammogram, galvanostatic charge/discharge testing, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques were employed to evaluate the electrochemical behaviors of LiMn₂O₄ in 1 M Li₂SO₄ aqueous solution. Two redox couples at E _SCE = 0.78/0.73 and 0.91/0.85 V were observed, corresponding to those found at E _Li/Li ⁺= 4.05/3.95 and 4.06/4.18 V in organic electrolyte. The discharge capacity of pristine LiMn₂O₄ in aqueous electrolyte was 57.57 mAh g⁻¹, and the capacity retention of the electrode is 53.7 % after 60 cycles. Only one semicircle emerged in EIS at different potentials in aqueous electrolyte, while three semicircles were observed in organic electrolytes. There was no solid electrolyte interface film on the surface of spinel LiMn₂O₄ electrode in aqueous electrolyte. The change of kinetic parameters of lithium ion insertion in spinel LiMn₂O₄ with potential in aqueous electrolyte for initial charge process was discussed in detail, and a suitable model was proposed to explain the impedance response of the insertion materials of lithium ion batteries in different electrolytes.     

Electrochemical performances of lithium ion battery using alkoxides of group 13 as electrolyte solvent

Tris(methoxy polyethylenglycol) borate ester (B-PEG) and aluminum tris(polyethylenglycoxide) (Al-PEG) were used as electrolyte solvent for lithium ion battery, and the electrochemical property of these electrolytes were investigated. These electrolytes, especially B-PEG, showed poor electrochemical stability, leading to insufficient discharge capacity and rapid degradation with cycling. These observations would be ascribed to the decomposition of electrolyte, causing formation of unstable passive layer on the surface of electrode in lithium ion battery at high voltage. However, significant improvement was observed by the addition of aluminum phosphate (AlPO₄) powder into electrolyte solvent. AC impedance technique revealed that the increase of interfacial resistance of electrode/electrolyte during cycling was suppressed by adding AlPO₄, and this suppression could enhance the cell capabilities. We infer that dissolved AlPO₄ components formed electrochemically stable layer on the surface of electrode.     

Solid polymer electrolyte based on waterborne polyurethane for all‐solid‐state lithium ion batteries

A series of solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) based on comb‐like nonionic waterborne polyurethane (NWPU) and LiClO₄ are fabricated via a solvent free process. The NWPU‐based SPEs have sufficient mechanical strength which is beneficial to their dimensional stability. Differential scanning calorimetry analysis indicates that the phase separation occurs by the addition of the lithium salt. Scanning electron microscopy and X‐ray diffraction analyses illustrate the good compatibility between LiClO₄ and NWPU. Fourier transform infrared study reveals the complicated interactions among lithium ions with the amide, carbonyl and ether groups in such SPEs. AC impedance spectroscopy shows the conductivity of the SPEs exhibiting a linear Arrhenius relationship with temperature. The ionic conductivity of the SPE with the mass content of 15% LiClO₄ (SPE15) can reach 5.44 × 10^?6 S cm^?1 at 40 °C and 2.35 ×10^?3 S cm^?1 at 140 °C. The SPE15 possesses a wide electrochemical stability window of 0–5 V (vs. Li+/Li) and thermal stability at 140 °C. The excellent properties of this new NWPU‐based SPE are a promising solid electrolyte candidate for all‐solid‐state lithium ion batteries. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

Effect of surface modified porous inorganic-organic hybrid polyphosphazene nanotubes on the properties of polyethylene oxide based solid polymer electrolytes

2-(2-methyloxyethoxy)ethanol modified poly (cyclotriphosphazene-co-4,4′-sufonyldiphenol) (PZS) nanotubes were synthesized and solid composite polymer electrolytes based on the surface modified polyphosphazene nanotubes added to PEO/LiClO₄ model system were prepared. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) were used to investigate the characteristics of the composite polymer electrolytes (CPE). The ionic conductivity, lithium ion transference number and electrochemical stability window can be enhanced after the addition of surface modified PZS nanotubes. The electrochemical investigation shows that the solid composite polymer electrolytes incorporated with PZS nanotubes have higher ionic conductivity and lithium ion transference number than the filler SiO₂. Maximum ionic conductivity values of 4.95 × 10⁻⁵ S cm⁻¹ at ambient temperature and 1.64 × 10⁻³ S cm⁻¹ at 80 °C with 10 wt % content of surface modified PZS nanotubes were obtained and the lithium ion transference number was 0.41. The good chemical properties of the solid state composite polymer electrolytes suggested that the inorganic-organic hybrid polyphosphazene nanotubes had a promising use as fillers in solid composite polymer electrolytes and the PEO₁₀-LiClO₄-PZS nanotubes solid composite polymer electrolyte can be used as a candidate material for lithium polymer batteries.     

Ionic liquid batteries: Chemistry to replace alkaline/acid energy storage devices

Rather than depend on highly acidic or basic electrolytes, ionic liquids are used to create new types of solid state cells which mimic standard alkaline cells, but without the need for caustic electrolytes. Presented here is a non-aqueous approach to primary and secondary power sources, where the pure ionic liquid not only acts as the electrolyte/separator in both liquid and solid state batteries, but as a reactive species in the cell's electrochemical makeup. In this work, batteries are designed using standard cathode and anode materials such as MnO₂/Carbon, PbO₂, NiO, AgO and Zn. However, by using a solid polymer electrolyte composed of an ionic liquid and polyvinyl alcohol, novel types of solid state batteries are demonstrated with discharge voltages ranging up to 1.8 V, dependent upon the type of cathode and anode used. These batteries are characterized by ionic conductivity, initial voltage measurements, and discharge profiles.     

Controllable Li3PS4–Li4SnS4 solid electrolytes with affordable conductor and high conductivity for solid-state battery

High ionic conductivity, low grain boundary impedance, and stable electrochemical property have become the focus for all-solid-state lithium–sulfur batteries (ASSLSB). One of the approaches is to promote the rapid diffusion of lithium ions by regulating the chemical bond interactions within the framework. The structure control of P⁵⁺ substitution for Sn⁴⁺ on lithium-ion transport was explored for a series of Li₃PS₄–Li₄SnS₄ glass–ceramic electrolytes. Results showed that the grain boundary impedance of the glass electrolyte was reduced after heat treatments. The formation of LiSnPS microcrystals, a good superionic conductor, was detected by X-ray diffraction tests. Electrochemical experiments obtained the highest conductivity of 29.5 S cm⁻¹ at 100°C and stable electrochemical window from –0.1 to 5 V at 25°C. In addition, the cell battery was assembled with prepared electrolyte, which is promoted as a candidate solid electrolyte material with improved performance for ASSLSB.     

Operational Inhomogeneities in La0.9Sr0.1Ga0.8Mg0.2O3–δ Electrolytes and La0.8Sr0.2Cr0.82Ru0.18O3–δ–Ce0.9Gd0.1O2–δ Composite Anodes for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells

The electrolyte/anode interface in solid oxide fuel cells with La_0.9Sr_0.1Ga_0.8Mg_0.2O_3–δ electrolytes and composite anodes containing La_0.8Sr_0.2Cr_0.82Ru_0.18O_3–δ and Ce_0.9Gd_0.1O_2–δ (GDC) was studied using transmission electron microscope Z‐contrast imaging and energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy. The anode/electrolyte interface of an operated cell had numerous defective regions in the electrolyte, immediately adjacent to anode GDC particles. These areas had a different chemical composition than other electrolyte regions and were crystallographically inhomogeneous. These regions were not observed in a cell reduced in hydrogen that was not operated, suggesting that they were the result of combined electrical and chemical potential gradients present during cell operation. Ru nanoparticles were observed on the chromite surfaces of the operated.     

Recent progress on garnet-type oxide electrolytes for all-solid-state lithium-ion batteries

Currently, the safety of lithium-ion batteries has attracted much attention. All-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) are promising replacements for liquid-electrolyte lithium-ion batteries due to their high energy density and excellent safety. The choice of electrolyte is the most critical part of ASSBs. Li₇La₃Zr₂O₁₂ (LLZO)-based solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) render high energy density, wide electrochemical window and high lithium-ion mobility. However, their low lithium-ion conductivity compared with liquid organic electrolytes and rigid interfacial contact at electrode/electrolyte interface mainly hinder the development of LLZO-based ASSBs. Herein, we review recent progress in the area of LLZO-based SSEs by discussing the structure and transport mechanism of lithium (Li)-ions of LLZO. Also, we summarize bottleneck problems and corresponding solutions, providing theoretical basis and technical support for the development of LLZO-based ASSBs. Finally, future prospects of LLZO-based ASSBs are discussed in next-generation energy storage systems.     

Preparation and physicochemical performances of poly[(vinylidene fluoride)‐co‐hexafluoropropylene]‐based composite polymer electrolytes doped with modified carbon nanotubes

Modified carbon nanotubes (m‐CNTs) were successfully prepared by the interactions between nitric and sulfuric acids and CNTs, which was confirmed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Poly[(vinylidene fluoride)‐co‐hexafluoropropylene]‐based composite polymer electrolyte (CPE) membranes doped with various amounts of m‐CNTs were prepared by phase inversion method. The desired CPEs were obtained by soaking the liquid electrolytes for 30 min. The physicochemical and electrochemical properties of the CPE membranes were investigated using scanning electron microscopy, X‐ray diffraction, thermogravimetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and linear sweep voltammetry. The results show that the CPE membranes doped with 2.2 wt% m‐CNTs possess the smoothest surface and the highest decomposition temperature about 450 °C. Obviously, adding an appropriate amount of m‐CNTs into the polymer matrix can decrease the crystallinity and enhance the ionic conductivity; the temperature dependence of ionic conductivity follows the Arrhenius relation and the ionic conductivity at room temperature is up to 4.9 mS cm^?1. The interfacial resistance can reach a stable value of about 415 Ω cm^?2 after 10 days storage. The excellent rate and cycle performances with an electrochemical working window up to 5.4 V ensure that the CPEs doped with 2.2 wt% m‐CNTs can be considered as potential candidates as polymer electrolyte for lithium ion batteries. © 2013 Society of Chemical Industry     

Synthesis and conductivity behaviour of proton conducting (1−x)Ba0.6Sr0.4Ce0.75Zr0.10Y0.15O3−δ‐xGDC (x=0, 0.2, 0.5) composite electrolytes

An attempt has been made here to synthesize (1?x)Ba_0.6Sr_0.4CZY‐xGDC (x=0, 0.2, 0.5) composite electrolytes and investigated their phase(s), X‐ray photo spectra (XPS) and conduction properties. All compositions possess dual phases (perovskite‐type as well as cubic fluorite structure) and show proton conduction in various atmospheres. Homogeneous formation and compatibility between phases have been confirmed from X‐ray diffraction analysis. Detailed X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) studies on the oxidation states of barium, strontium, gadolinium, cerium, zirconium, yttrium, and oxygen was performed. With increasing “x”, oxygen vacancy concentration increases as cerium ions in 4+ oxidation state decreases. The conduction behavior of composites depicts the protonic in nature and total activation energy lying in the range of 0.16‐0.24 eV. This study indicates that the conductivity increases with GDC content in composite electrolytes and highest conductivity is found for composite with x=0.5. These characteristics are useful to make (1?x)Ba_0.6Sr_0.4CZY‐xGDC composite electrolytes as promising candidate of central membrane for advanced fuel cell technology.     

Morphology and electrochemical and mechanical properties of polyethylene‐oxide‐based nanofibrous electrolytes applicable in lithium ion batteries

We report the synthesis of all‐solid‐state polymeric electrolytes based on electrospun nanofibers. These nanofibers are composed of polyethylene oxide (PEO) as the matrix, lithium perchlorate (LiClO₄) as the lithium salt and propylene carbonate (PC) as the plasticizer. The effects of the PEO, LiClO₄ and PC ratios on the morphological, mechanical and electrochemical characteristics were investigated using the response surface method (RSM) and analysis of variance test. The prepared nanofibrous electrolytes were characterized using SEM, Fourier transform infrared, XRD and DSC analyses. Conductivity measurements and tensile tests were conducted on the prepared electrolytes. The results show that the average diameter of the nanofibers decreased on reduction of the PEO concentration and addition of PC and LiClO₄. Fourier transport infrared analysis confirmed the complexation between PEO and the additives. The highest conductivity was 0.05 mS cm^?1 at room temperature for the nanofibrous electrolyte with the lowest PEO concentration and the highest ratio of LiClO₄. The optimum nanofibrous electrolyte showed stable cycling over 30 cycles. The conductivity of a polymer film electrolyte was 29 times lower than that of the prepared nanofibrous electrolyte with similar chemical composition. Furthermore, significant fading in mechanical properties was observed on addition of the PC plasticizer. The results obtained imply that further optimization might lead to practical uses of nanofibrous electrolytes in lithium ion batteries. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry     

Studies of solvent effect on the conductivity of 2‐mercaptopyridine‐doped solid polymer blend electrolytes and its application in dye‐sensitized solar cells

Solvents and electrolytes play an important role in the fabrication of dye‐sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). We have studied the poly(ethylene oxide)‐poly(methyl methacrylate)‐KI‐I₂ (PEO‐PMMA‐KI‐I₂) polymer blend electrolytes prepared with different wt % of the 2‐mercaptopyridine by solution casting method. The polymer electrolyte films were characterized by the FTIR, X‐ray diffraction, electrochemical impedance and dielectric studies. FTIR spectra revealed complex formation between the PEO‐PMMA‐KI‐I₂ and 2‐mercaptopyrindine. Ionic conductivity data revealed that 30% 2‐mercaptopyridine‐doped PEO‐PMMA‐KI‐I₂ electrolyte can show higher conductivity (1.55 × 10^?5 S cm^?1) than the other compositions (20, 40, and 50%). The effect of solvent on the conductivity and dielectric of solid polymer electrolytes was studied for the best composition (30% 2‐mercaptopyridine‐doped PEO‐PMMA‐KI‐I₂) electrolyte using various organic solvents such as acetonitrile, N,N‐dimethylformamide, 2‐butanone, chlorobenzene, dimethylsulfoxide, and isopropanol. We found that ac‐conductivity and dielectric constant are higher for the polymer electrolytes processed from N,N‐dimethylformamide. This observation revealed that the conductivity of the solid polymer electrolytes is dependent on the solvent used for processing and the dielectric constant of the film. The photo‐conversion efficiency of dye‐sensitized solar cells fabricated using the optimized polymer electrolytes was 3.0% under an illumination of 100 mW cm^?2. The study suggests that N,N‐dimethylformamide is a good solvent for the polymer electrolyte processing due to higher ac‐conductivity beneficial for the electrochemical device applications. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Composite polymer electrolyte incorporating WO3 nanofillers with enhanced performance for dendrite-free solid-state lithium battery

All solid-state lithium batteries (ASS-LBs) with polymer-based solid electrolytes are a prospective contender for the next-generation batteries because of their high energy density, flexibility, and safety. Among all-polymer electrolytes, PEO-based solid polymer electrolytes received huge consideration as they can dissolve various Li salts. However, the development of an ideal PEO-based solid polymer electrolyte is hindered by its insufficient tensile strength and lower ionic conductivity due to its semi-crystalline and soft chain structure. In order to lower the crystallization and improve the performance of PEO-based solid polymer electrolyte, tungsten trioxide (WO₃) nanofillers were introduced into PEO matrix. Herein, a PEO₂₀/LiTFSI/x-WO₃ (PELI-xW) (x = 0%, 2.5%, 5%, 10%) solid composite polymer electrolyte was prepared by the tape casting method. The solid composite polymer electrolyte containing 5 wt% WO₃ nanofillers achieved the highest ionic conductivity of 7.4 × 10^-4 S cm^-1 at 60 °C. It also confirms a higher Li-ion transference number of 0.42, good electrochemical stability of 4.3V, and higher tensile strength than a PEO/LiTFSI (PELI-0W) fillers-free electrolyte. Meanwhile, the LiFePO₄│PELI-xW│Li ASS-LBs demonstrated high performance and cyclability. Based on these findings, it can be considered a feasible strategy for the construction of efficient and flexible PEO-based solid polymer electrolytes for next-generation solid-state batteries.
