Composite solid-state electrolytes (CSEs) have been developed rapidly in recent years owing to their high electrochemical stability, low cost, and easy processing characteristics. Most CSEs, however, require high temperatures or flammable liquid solvents to exhibit their acceptable electrochemical performance. Room-temperature all-solid-state batteries without liquid electrolytes are still unsatisfactory and under development. Herein, we have prepared a composite solid electrolyte with excellent performance using a polymer electrolyte poly(vinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene) and an inorganic electrolyte Li6.4La3Zr1.4Ta0.6O12. With the assistance of lithium salts and plasticizers, the prepared CSE achieves a high ionic conductivity of 4.05 × 10–4 S·cm–1 at room temperature. The Li/CSE/Li symmetric cell can be stably cycled for more than 1000 h at 0.1 mA/cm2 without short circuits. The all-solid-state lithium metal battery using a LiFePO4 cathode displays a high discharge capacity of 148.1 mAh·g–1 and a capacity retention of 90.21% after 100 cycles. Moreover, the high electrochemical window up to 4.7 V of the CSE makes it suitable for high-voltage service environments. The all-solid-state battery using a lithium nickel-manganate cathode shows a high discharge specific capacity of 197.85 mAh·g–1 with good cycle performance. This work might guide the improvement of future CSEs and the exploration of flexible all-solid-state lithium metal batteries.

High-Performance Poly(vinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene)-Based Composite Electrolytes with Excellent Interfacial Compatibility for Room-Temperature All-Solid-State Lithium Metal Batteries

A model of conductivity of nanocomposite ceramics consisting of solid-electrolyte and dielectric phases is proposed based on the assumption that the conductivity of grain boundaries between the solid-electrolyte and dielectric phases is higher than the conductivity of the volume of particles in the solid-electrolyte phase and its grain boundaries. Taking into account the size of particles, the thickness of grain boundaries, and the bulk and grain-boundary conductivities, the grain size of composite ceramics for which the conductivity may exceed the conductivity of single-phase solid-electrolyte ceramics is assessed. For testing this model, the composite samples are synthesized based on dielectric magnesium oxide and solid-electrolyte cerium oxide doped with samarium oxide. It is shown that introduction of 50 mol % magnesium oxide into composite ceramics has virtually no effect on its conductivity as compared with single-phase solid-electrolyte ceramics. This result can be explained by assuming the appearance of accelerated transport routes for oxygen ions in grain boundaries between dielectric and solid-electrolyte phases. Further dispersion, optimization of the ratio, and increase in distribution homogeneity of components can confirm the validity of the proposed conductivity model and open up the possibility of preparation of oxide solid-electrolyte materials with higher conductivity.

Nanocomposite Ceramics on the Basis of Magnesium, Cerium, and Samarium Oxides

Magnesium oxide is widely used as an adsorbent, catalyst, identifier of chemical and toxic pollutants, in water and gas purification processes. Mesoporous magnesium oxide powder has been synthesized by the method of deposition, spray pyrolysis and glycine-citrate-nitrate method, their crystal structure, microstructure, granulometric composition and adsorption properties have been studied. Optimal conditions for the production of magnesium oxide by the glycine-citrate-nitrate method have been determined, which make it possible to obtain a powder with average primary particle sizes of 12 nm and the smallest sizes of secondary particles starting from 70 nm. The influence of the method of obtaining nanostructured magnesium oxide powder on the physicochemical properties is established. High values of the total pore volume of 1.038 cm3 /g exhibited the MgO powder obtained by the precipitation method.

To achieve solid electrolyte materials for electrochemical energy storage devices with very high oxygen ion conductivity, composites of gadolinium-doped ceria (GDC) and magnesia (MgO) are developed in this study. Three different preparation methods are used to prepare nanoparticles from these two components. According to the characterization results, the self-propagating high-temperature synthesis is best suited for the preparation of both nanometer-sized GDC powder as solid electrolyte and MgO powder as insulator. The structures of the prepared nanometer-sized powders have been characterized by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. They show narrow size distributions in the lower nanometer range. Then, dense composite ceramics are prepared from a MgO–GDC mixture by sintering. The size of the crystallite domains in the sintered ceramic is in the upper nanometer range.
