In this study, we aimed to optimize electrolyte with the focus on engineering aspects. The basic physicochemical properties including ionic conductivity, viscosity,wettability and thermochemical stability of the electrolytes using Na PF6 as the solute and the mixed solvent with different components of EMC,DMC or DEC in PC or EC were systematically measured. Ah pouch cell with NaNi_(1/3)Fe_(1/3)Mn_(1/3)O_(2)/hard carbon electrodes was used to evaluate the performance of the prepared electrolytes. By using the Inductive Coupled Plasma Emission Spectrometer(ICP), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS), Thermogravimetric-differential scanning calorimetry(TG-DSC) and Accelerating Rate Calorimeter(ARC), we show that an optimized electrolyte can effectively promote the formation of a protective interfacial layer on two electrodes, which not only retards parasitic reactions between the electrodes and electrolyte but also suppresses dissolution of metal ions from the cathode. With an optimized electrolyte, a NaNi_(1/3)Fe_(1/3)Mn_(1/3)O_(2)/hard carbon cell can attain 56.16% capacity retention under the low temperature of -40℃, and can be able to retain 80%capacity retention after more than 2500 cycles while presenting excellent thermal safety.展开更多

The equation is in terms of Helmholtz free energy and incorporated with results of low density expansion of non-primitive mean spherical approximation. The EOS was tested for experimental data reported in literatures of 9 nonaqueous single electrolyte solutions of which the temperature was 298.15 K, and it also has a good predictive capability for nonaqueous electrolyte solutions at different temperature in this work. The comparisons with EOSs published earlier by other researchers in literatures are carried out in detail.展开更多

Aset of eaperimental apparatus was constructed. This apparatus was ctherited with NaCl,NaBr in methanol solvent. The results are consistat with the literature values, showingthat the apparatus is reliable and the accuracy is high also. The osmotic coefficients ofsolutions of Nal, Me4NCl, Bu4NBr in methanol solvent were measured at 298.15K. Theresults are fitted by Pitzer equation. The activity coefficients of salts in methanol are cal-ctilated using Pitzer’s interaction paramters obtained. The method is rapid, convenientand accurate, compared with the traditional static and isopiestic methods. It gives a pow-erful tool for measuxement of the osmotic coefficients of nonaqueous electrolyte solutions.展开更多
