Weakly-solvating electrolyte enables ultralow temperature (-80°C) and high-power CFx/Li primary batteries

In a study published in the journal Science China Chemistry, researchers show how by selecting low melting point solvents and suitable salts and precisely tailoring Li+-coordinated environment via integration of low-affinity solvents with moderate anions, the weakly solvating cyclic ether-based electrolyte is introduced to significantly decrease desolvation activation energies and facilitate reaction kinetics, which are proved by molecular dynamics and binding energy calculation.
