Professor Li from Lingnan University delivered a lecture titled “Optimizing Electrolytes and Interfaces in Solid-State Batteries” at the Faculty of Science and Technology on October 11, 2024.
During the seminar, Professor Li shared his latest research findings on the development of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF)-based electrolytes. He discussed methods to enhance the electrochemical properties of sulfide-based solid-state batteries (SSBs), emphasizing the importance of establishing intimate contact between active materials and sulfide electrolytes in composite cathodes while minimizing non-active material content. Professor Li emphasized the significance of processes and optimization strategies for creating high-performance composite cathodes with sulfide electrolytes. He pointed out that specific sulfide electrolytes exhibit electrochemical activity, providing extra capacity through reversible redox reactions. These strategies and advancements are anticipated to propel the progress towards high-performance solid-state Li-S batteries for commercial use.
