Abstract
High-voltage spinel LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 has been considered one of the most promising cathode materials for lithium-ion power batteries used in electrical vehicles (EVs) or hybrid electrical vehicles (HEVs) because the high voltage plateau at around 4.7 V makes its energy density (658 Wh kg−1) 30 and 25 % higher than that of conventional pristine spinel LiMn2O4 (440 Wh kg−1) or olivine LiFePO4 (500 Wh kg−1) materials, respectively. Unfortunately, LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4-based batteries with LiPF6-based carbonate electrolytes always suffer from severe capacity deterioration and poor thermostability because of the oxidization of organic carbonate solvents and decomposition of LiPF6, especially at elevated temperatures and water-containing environment. The major goal of this review is to highlight the recent advancements in the development of advanced electrolytes for improving the cycling stability and rate capacity of LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4-based batteries. Finally, an insight into the future research and further development of advanced electrolytes for LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4-based batteries is discussed.
