A Universal Room-Temperature 3D Printing Approach Towards porous MOF Based Dendrites Inhibition Hybrid Solid-State Electrolytes.

Abstract

Hybrid solid-state electrolytes (HSSEs) provide new opportunities and inspiration for the realization of safer, higher energy-density metal batteries. The innovative application of 3-dimensional printing in the electrochemical field, especially in solid-state electrolytes, endows energy storage devices with fascinating characteristics. In this paper, effective dendrite-inhibited PEO/MOFs HSSEs is innovatively developed through universal room-temperature 3-dimensional printing (RT-3DP) strategy. The prepared HSSEs display enhanced dendrite inhibition due to the porous MOF filler promoting homogeneity of lithium deposition and the formation of C-OCO3 Li, ROLi, LiF mesophases, which further improve the migration of Li+ in PEO chain and comprehensive performances. This universal strategy realizes the fabrication of different slurry components (PEO with ZIF-67, MOF-74, UIO-66, ZIF-8 fillers) HSSEs at RT environment, providing new inspirations for the exploration of next-generation advanced solid-state batteries.
