Isophorone Diisocyanate: An Effective Additive to Form Cathode-Protective-Interlayer and Its Influence on LiNi0.5Co0.2Mn0.3O2 at High Potential
2018
In this work, we propose a novel electrolyte additive, isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), to construct the surface protective interlayer. This membrane is produced via nucleophilic addition between the IPDI’s diisocyanate groups and the free-radical-onium ion oxidative intermediate of propylene carbonate (PC). In the electrolyte with IPDI added between 10–20 mM, LiNi0.5Co0.2Mn0.3O2 presents the excellent performance, demonstrating the relative wide operational window to form the optimal protective membrane. This protective membrane ameliorates the cyclic stability. Although all systems deliver ∼185 mAh g–1 under 1 C between 2.5–4.6 V (vs Li+/Li), the cells in the suitable electrolyte maintain 90.4% in the 50 cycles and 83.2% in the 200 cycles, whereas the control cells are seriously dropped to 73.4% and 69.8%. The cells in the electrolyte with the appropriate IPDI also present the good rate capability, attaining ∼143 mAh g–1 under 5 C, much higher than the cells in the control electrolyte(92.4 mAh g–1).
