Abstract

The thermal and electrochemical properties of several succinonitrile (SN)-based organic ionic plastic crystals (OIPCs) containing lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI), lithium bis(oxalate) borate (LiBOB) or mixtures of the two salts, were investigated with the goal of determining which is most promising for use as a catholyte in solid-state lithium batteries. The best combination of properties for this use was found for the mixture containing 3 mol% LiTFSI and 2 mol% LiBOB in SN. Based on these observations, several solid-state cells containing Al-substituted Li7La3Zr2O12 separators with composite cathodes consisting of LiNi0.33Mn0.33Co0.33O2 (NMC111), carbon black, and the succinonitrile-salt mixtures were assembled and cycled at room temperature, without exogenous pressure, using a simple design.
