Application


  • Revealing Lithium Nitrate-Mediated Solid-Electrolyte Interphase of Lithium Metal Anode via Cryogenic Transmission Electron Microscopy.: This study explores the role of lithium nitrate in forming the solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) on lithium metal anodes. Using cryogenic transmission electron microscopy, the researchers revealed detailed structural and compositional insights, enhancing the understanding of lithium metal batteries (Zhen et al., 2024).

  • Three-dimensional cross-linked network deep eutectic gel polymer electrolyte with the self-healing ability enabled by hydrogen bonds and dynamic disulfide bonds.: This research presents a novel gel polymer electrolyte incorporating lithium nitrate, which facilitates a self-healing mechanism through hydrogen bonds and dynamic disulfide bonds, improving battery performance and longevity (Chen et al., 2024).

  • Additive-Driven Nanoscale Architecture of Solid Electrolyte Interphase Revealed by Cryogenic Transmission Electron Microscopy.: The study highlights how lithium nitrate, as an additive, influences the nanoscale architecture of the SEI, providing crucial insights for the design of better lithium-ion batteries (Park et al., 2024).
