Overview

Experimental study demonstrates enhanced cycling stability in lithium metal batteries via a lipoic acid-derived interphase, indicating a scalable pathway for high-energy storage.

Key Points

To develop a stable artificial solid electrolyte interphase on lithium metal anodes using a rapid lipoic acid pretreatment to mitigate dendrite formation and interfacial degradation.
Synthesized an artificial solid electrolyte interphase composed of COO-Li species and sulfur-containing compounds via the chemical reaction of lipoic acid with lithium metal.
Tested electrochemical cycling in symmetric cells at 5 mA cm⁻² with a 5 mAh cm⁻² capacity and evaluated practical scalability in lithium-sulfur and lithium-iron phosphate pouch cells.
Lipoic acid-modified lithium symmetric cells sustained over 1500 hours of continuous cycling stability at 5 mA cm⁻² and 5 mAh cm⁻².
Full-cell configurations, including lithium-sulfur and lithium-iron phosphate pouch cells, demonstrated substantially enhanced cycling performance compared to cells using bare lithium anodes.
