Problems solved by technology

The results show that this type of electrolyte degrades significantly during the reaction process, generating a large amount of by-products such as carbonates and alkyl carbonates, and the gas released during the charging reaction is mainly CO 2 , instead of O 2 , seriously affecting the performance of lithium-air batteries
Later, researchers developed acetonitrile electrolytes and sulfone electrolytes, but acetonitrile electrolytes are extremely volatile; sulfone electrolytes decompose at the end of charging to produce carbonate by-products, which cannot be used in subsequent charging reactions. Complete oxidative decomposition, accumulation on the electrode surface with the cycle process, making the long-term cycle stability of lithium-air batteries poor

Abstract

The invention provides ether electrolyte. The ether electrolyte comprises lithium salt and an organic solvent, wherein the organic solvent comprises one or more of 1,2-dimethoxyethane, diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, triethylene glycol dimethyl ether and tetraethylene glycol dimethyl ether. The ether electrolyte has advantages that the ether electrolyte is unlikely to volatize, the oxygen dissolving degree is high, the electrochemical stable window is wide, and the like, and has excellent chemical stability for a discharging intermediate product O2<-1> or LiO2 and a discharging final product Li2O2. The lithium air battery prepared by utilizing the ethers electrolyte is excellent in long cycling stability. The experimental result shows that a charging-discharging curve is not obviously changed after the lithium air battery assembled by utilizing the ether electrolyte is circularly charged and discharged for 30 times at a limit capacity of 1,000mAh / g under the current density of 100mA / g.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium-air batteries, and in particular relates to an ether electrolyte and a lithium-air battery. Background technique [0002] Lithium-air batteries are batteries that use lithium metal or lithium compounds as the negative electrode active material and oxygen as the positive electrode active material, and can be repeatedly charged and discharged. The electrode reaction during charging and discharging is as follows: [0003] Negative electrode reaction during discharge: Li→Li + +e - ; [0004] Positive reaction: O 2 +2Li + +2e - → Li 2 o 2 ; [0005] Negative reaction during charging: Li + +e - → Li; [0006] Positive reaction: Li 2 o 2 →O 2 +2Li + +2e - .
