SAFELiMOVE solid-state cell intends to go beyond conventional LIBs performance. Thus, the electrolyte design is critical to ensure the safety and electrochemical properties. Within SAFELiMOVE project a new solid, ion-conducting hybrid ceramic-polymer electrolyte, chemically and electrochemically compatible with electrode materials, and with high ionic conductivity has been proposed: from the development and characterization of the neat components (inorganic materials and polymer matrix) to the full validation of the hybrid ceramic-polymer electrolyte.
- Objective: The main objective is to develop a new solid electrolyte able to fulfil the KPIs of the project.
- Research: The research has been focused on the design of a mechanically stable, highly ion-conducting, and scalable hybrid ceramic-polymer electrolyte. This has been achieved through the continuous feedback received from partners.
- Result: Solid electrolyte design, which is chemically and electrochemically compatible with electrode materials, and with a reasonable ionic conductivity.
- What will the results be used for: Defined solid electrolyte is implemented in 1 Ah cells and tested within SAFELiMOVE partners.
- Impact: This (together with the designed cathode and lithium metal) will assure the cyclability of the 1 Ah cells.
