Tuning Carbonate Solvation via Electrolyte Engineering Toward Robust Low-Temperature Lithium Metal Batteries.

Conventional ethylene carbonate (EC)-based electrolytes are dominated by strong Li+-solvent coordination, which leads to sluggish reaction kinetics at low-temperature and severe interfacial side reactions under high-voltage operation. Herein, a ternary electrolyte with weak-solvation characteristics based on lithium di...
