Structure of Spontaneously Formed Solid-Electrolyte Interphase on Lithiated Graphite Determined Using Small-Angle Neutron Scattering

We address the reactivity of lithiated graphite–anode material for Li-ion batteries with standard organic solvents used in batteries (ethylene carbonate and dimethyl carbonate) by following changes in neutron scattering signals. The reaction produces a nanosized layer, the solid-electrolyte interpha... View More
