Emerging electrolytes with fluorinated solvents for rechargeable lithium-based batteries

Electrolytes that can ensure the movement of ions and regulate interfacial chemistries for fast mass and charge transfer are essential in many types of electrochemical energy storage devices. However, in the emerging energy-dense lithium-based batteries, the uncontrollable side-reactions and consumption of the electrolyte result in poor electrochemical performances and severe safety concerns. In this case, fluorination has been demonstrated to be one of the most effective strategies to overcome the above-mentioned issues without significantly contributing to engineering and technical difficulties. Herein, we present a comprehensive overview of the fluorinated solvents that can be employed in lithium-based…
