Effects of solvents and salt on the thermal stability of lithiated graphite used in lithium ion battery.
The thermal stability of lithiated graphite in the presence of solvents, electrolytes and LiPF(6) salt was studied using C80 micro-calorimeter. The presence of cyclic carbonates or linear carbonates increases the activity of Li(x)C(6)-solvent coexisting system, especially for the Li(x)C(6)-linear carbonates one. LiPF(6) was detected that it increases the activity greatly of its coexisting system with lithiated graphite. The coexisting system of Li(x)C(6) with the electrolyte of LiPF(6)/ethylene carbonate+diethyl carbonate shows less thermal stability, which is attributed to the activity between diethyl carbonate and Li(x)C(6). This also agrees with the experiment result of Li(x)C(6)-diethyl carbonate coexisting system.
