Problems solved by technology

The use of lithium alloy as the negative electrode reduces the reactivity of the negative electrode, reduces the non-Faradaic reaction between the electrolyte and the negative electrode, promotes the uniform deposition of lithium, and inhibits the formation of dendrites, but at the same time, the overall specific capacity and energy density of the negative electrode are greatly reduced. , the gain outweighs the gain; the use of nano-lithium powder instead of lithium foil improves the performance and increases the manufacturing cost, and the nano-lithium powder is flammable and explosive, and the operation is difficult; pretreatment modification is the most popular research direction at present, but no matter what kind of pretreatment The method and timeliness are difficult to meet the needs of practical applications; the development of new electrolyte systems, including the development of electrolyte additives, electrolyte solvents, new solutes, etc., suitable electrolytes can indeed improve interfacial compatibility and improve battery performance, but the current development is relatively slow
In summary, although various modification methods have made some progress, they still cannot completely eliminate the safety hazards of lithium anodes.
