Abstract:
We use reactive molecular dynamics to predict electrolyte reaction pathways relevant to solid electrolyte interphase formation in anode-free batteries. The approach reproduces established reduction pathways for EC and PF6-, while agreeing with first-principles calculations for other components at lower computational cost. The predicted pathways could enable future large-scale SEI modelling.
