    Abstract:
    A solid polymer electrolyte has been developed and employed in lithium-metal batteries of relevant interest. The material includes crystalline poly(ethylene glycol)dimethyl ether (PEGDME), LiTFSI and LiNO3 salts, and a SiO2 ceramic filler. The electrolyte shows ionic conductivity more than 10-4  S cm-1 at room temperature and approaching 10-3  S cm-1 at 60 °C, a Li+ -transference number exceeding 0.3, electrochemical stability from 0 to 4.4 V vs. Li+ /Li, lithium stripping/deposition overvoltage below 0.08 V, and electrode/electrolyte interphase resistance of 400 Ω. Thermogravimetry indicates that the electrolyte stands up to 200 °C without significant weight loss, while FTIR spectroscopy suggests that the LiTFSI conducting salt dissolves in the polymer. The electrolyte is used in solid-state cells with various cathodes, including LiFePO4 olivine exploiting the Li-insertion, sulfur-carbon composite operating through Li conversion, and an oxygen electrode in which reduction and evolution reactions (i. e., ORR/OER) evolve on a carbon-coated gas diffusion layer (GDL). The cells operate reversibly at room temperature with a capacity of 140 mA h g-1 at 3.4 V for LiFePO4 , 400 mA h g-1 at 2 V for sulfur electrode, and 500 mA h g-1 at 2.5 V for oxygen. The results suggest that the electrolyte could be applied in room-temperature solid polymer cells.
