Types
Depending on their morphology and composition, electrolyte materials can be divided into liquid electrolytes, solid electrolytes, and solid-liquid mixed electrolytes.
Liquid electrolytes. Liquid electrolytes are the type used in most power batteries on the market today, and the technology is mature. They include organic liquid electrolytes and room temperature ionic liquid electrolytes. Organic liquid electrolytes have good electrochemical stability, low freezing point, and high boiling point. They can be used in a wide temperature range. Room temperature ionic liquid electrolytes are functional materials or media composed of specific cations and anions that are liquid at room temperature or near room temperature. They have the advantages of high conductivity, good electrochemical stability, no pollution, and easy recycling.
Solid electrolytes. Solid electrolytes include inorganic solid electrolytes and polymer electrolytes. Inorganic solid electrolytes are solid materials with high ionic conductivity. They are promising candidates for all-solid-state batteries. Polymer electrolytes are made from polymer matrix, offer flexibility and can be processed easily. Notable examples include polyethylene oxide (PEO) and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF).
Solid-liquid mixed electrolytes. Solid-liquid mixed electrolytes are gel electrolytes composed of solid polymers and liquid electrolytes, often made by incorporating solvents into polymer matrices. They combine the advantages of liquid and solid electrolytes, offering good ionic conductivity and mechanical stability.
Properties
Ionic conductivity. Ionic conductivity is a measure of how well ions can move through the material. High ionic conductivity is essential for efficient charge and discharge processes.
Electrochemical stability. Electrochemical stability is the ability of the electrolyte to withstand high voltages without decomposing. This property ensures the longevity and safety of the electrochemical device.
Thermal stability. Stability of the electrolyte under different temperature conditions is vital, especially in applications like electric vehicles, where temperature variability can be significant.
Mechanical properties. In solid and gel electrolytes, mechanical strength and flexibility are important for handling and device assembly.
Chemical compatibility. The electrolyte must be compatible with the electrode materials to prevent undesirable reactions that could degrade performance.
