Background:

Solid polymer electrolytes are crucial for safe, high-energy lithium-metal batteries (LMBs).
Commercialization of LMBs is hindered by dendritic lithium growth, interfacial instability, and low ionic conductivity.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop a multifunctional composite solid electrolyte (CSE) that addresses challenges in LMBs.
To improve interfacial properties and mechanical reinforcement for enhanced battery performance and safety.

Main Methods:

Fabrication of a tri-layered CSE with PEO/LiTFSI outer layers and a reinforced inner layer.
Inner layer reinforcement using polydopamine-coated Li7La3Zr2O12 (PDA@LLZO) and poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(propylene glycol)-block-poly(ethylene glycol) (PPP).
Characterization of ionic conductivity, transference number, anodic stability, and cycling performance in Li/LFP full cells and Li/Li symmetric cells.

Main Results:

The optimized CSE-30 (30 wt% PDA@LLZO) exhibited significantly enhanced ionic conductivity (5.60×10⁻³ S cm⁻¹ at 60°C) and Li⁺ transference number (0.81).
Achieved high anodic stability (5.6 V vs. Li/Li⁺) and suppressed dendritic lithium growth in symmetric cells over 1000 hours.
Demonstrated excellent cycling stability in Li/LFP full cells, with 80% capacity retention after 1000 cycles.

Conclusions:

The multifunctional CSE design effectively integrates efficient Li⁺ transport and mechanical resilience.
This approach overcomes critical limitations of current solid polymer electrolytes for next-generation solid-state LMBs.
The developed composite solid electrolyte shows great promise for advancing safe and high-performance lithium-metal batteries.
