Surface-engineered elastomeric electrolytes with MXene interphases prevent lithium dendrites, enhancing battery safety and longevity. This breakthrough enables stable, high-energy-density flexible lithium-metal batteries.

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Electrochemistry
  • Polymer Science

Background:

  • Elastomeric electrolytes offer good interfacial contact but struggle with mechanical strength to prevent lithium dendrites.
  • Lithium dendrites are a major safety concern and performance limitation in lithium-metal batteries.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To engineer a robust interphase for elastomeric electrolytes to overcome mechanical limitations.
  • To improve the ionic conductivity and lithium-ion transport within the electrolyte.
  • To demonstrate stable cycling performance in flexible lithium-metal batteries.

Main Methods:

  • Surface-architected MXene interphase engineering on a hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber (HNBR) matrix.
  • Utilizing a high-modulus MXene surface layer for mechanical suppression of dendrites.
