Summary: Fast charging is crucial for next-generation energy storage devices, but it brings increased security risks and capacity attenuation. To overcome these issues, researchers have developed a novel gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) based on polyvinylene carbonate, poly (ethylene oxide), poly (vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluor-opropylene), and ionic liquid modified carbon nanotubes (IL-CNTs). This GPE exhibits improved lithium ion transportation, resulting in enhanced ionic conductivity and lithium-ion transference number. The GPE also demonstrates a wide electrochemical window and good cycle life, making it a valuable guideline for designing fast-charging GPEs.

Summary: Solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) have gained increasing attention for all solid-state lithium battery (ASSLB) applications, with recent research suggesting that mechanical properties such as elasticity and toughness are also crucial in addition to polymer shear modulus. An innovative approach of introducing ultrahigh-molecular-weight poly(ethylene oxide) to form semi-interpenetrating network (s-IPN) SPEs has successfully decoupled toughness and modulus effects, leading to improved lithium symmetric cell cycling life and overall battery performance. This work highlights the importance of toughness as a key criterion in future SPE design.

Summary: This article presents the results of a systematic study on the electrochemical performance and mechanical changes in two types of commercial batteries with different anode chemistry. The study reveals that the swelling of anode layers in batteries with silicon-based components causes deformations in the jelly roll structure, but the presence of a small percentage of silicon does not significantly impact the cycling performance of the cells within the relevant state-of-health range for electric vehicles (EVs). The research suggests that there is room for improving the cell capacities by increasing the silicon loading in composite anodes to meet the increasing demands on EVs.

Summary: By coupling electrochemical testing to operando synchrotron based X-ray absorption and powder diffraction experiments, blended positive electrodes consisting of LiMn2O4 spinel (LMO) and layered LiNi0.5Mn0.3Co0.2O2 (NMC) were studied to understand their redox mechanism. It was found that blending NMC with LMO can enhance energy density at high rates, with the blend containing 25% LMO showing the best performance. Testing with a special electrochemical setup revealed that the effective current load on each blend component can vary significantly from the nominal rate and also changes with SoC. Operando studies allowed monitoring of the oxidation state evolution and changes in crystal structure, in line with the expected behavior of individual components considering their electrochemical current loads.
