Abstract

The effect of fluorinated ethylene carbonate (FEC) as a cosolvent in alkyl carbonates/LiPF₆on the cycling performance of high-voltage (5 V) cathodes for Li-ion batteries was investigated using electrochemical tools, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and high-resolution scanning electron microscopy (HRSEM). An excellent cycling stability of LiCoPO₄/Li, LiNi_0.5Mn_1.5O₄/Si, and LiCoPO₄/Si cells and a reasonable cycling of LiCoPO₄/Si cells was achieved by replacing the commonly used cosolvent ethylene carbonate (EC) by FEC in electrolyte solutions for high-voltage Li-ion batteries. The roles of FEC in the improvement of the cycling performance of high-voltage Li-ion cells and of surface chemistry on the cathode are discussed.
