Work Package 4: Lithium-ion Electrode Interfaces in Conventional Liquid Electrolytes

Lead Partner: Universita Degli Studi di Camerino

Work Package Leader: Prof Andrea Di Cicco

Objectives:

To investigate candidate Li-ion anode and cathode material interfaces in a standard conventional liquid electrolyte. The conventional electrolyte will be 1M LiPF6 in ethylene carbonate: dimethyl carbonate 1:1 w/w.

To characterise candidate electrode material interfaces with a variety of ex situ and in situ techniques

To develop materials with more stable interfaces that demonstrate a greater cycle life.
