- This paper reviews the battery electrolyte technologies involving Huckel-type salts as a major electrolyte component. The concept was initially proposed by M. Armand in 1995 and then explored by several research groups. In the present review studies on the optimization of the electrolyte composition starting from molecular modeling through enhancing the yield of the salt synthesis to structural characterization and electrochemical performance are described. Furthermore, the use of the optimized electrolytes in a variety of lithium-ion and post-lithium batteries is presented and discussed. Finally, the commercialization of the up to date technology by Arkema is discussed as well as the performance of the present Huckel anion based electrolytes as compared to other marketed electrolyte technologies.

- Poly(vinylidene difluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) (PVdF-HFP) membrane was prepared by electrospinning. The membranes served as host matrices for the preparation of ionic liquid-based polymer electrolytes (ILPEs) by activation with non-volatile, highly thermally stable, and safe room temperature ionic liquid (RTIL) electrolytes; N-butyl-N-methyl-pyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (Py14TFSI) complexed with 1 M lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI). In this work, the first combination of electrospun PVdF-HFP fiber polymer host and pyrrolidinium-based ionic electrolyte was employed for highly stable lithium batteries. The ILPE exhibited low Li+-TFSI coordination, low crystallinity, high thermal stability, high electrochemical stability, and high ionic conductivity with a maximum of 1.1 x 10(-4) S cm(-1) at 0 degrees C. The ILPE exhibited good compatibility with a LiFePO4 electrode on storage and good charge-discharge performance in Li/ILPE/LiFePO4!

- Molecular level interactions are of crucial importance for the transport properties and overall performance of ion conducting electrolytes. In this work we explore ion-ion and ion-solvent interactions in liquid and solid polymer electrolytes of lithium 4,5-dicyano-(2-trifluoromethyl)imidazolide (LiTDI)-a promising salt for lithium battery applications-using Raman spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations. High concentrations of ion associates are found in LiTDI: acetonitrile electrolytes, the vibrational signatures of which are transferable to PEO-based LiTDI electrolytes. The origins of the spectroscopic changes are interpreted by comparing experimental spectra with simulated Raman spectra of model structures. Simple ion pair models in vacuum identify the imidazole nitrogen atom of the TDI anion to be the most important coordination site for Li+, however, including implicit or explicit solvent effects lead to qualitative changes in the coordination geometry and improved correlation of experimental and simulated Raman spectra. To model larger aggregates, solvent effects are found to be crucial, and we finally suggest possible triplet and dimer ionic structures in the investigated electrolytes. In addition, the effects of introducing water into the electrolytes-via a hydrate form of LiTDI-are discussed.
