Abstract

Lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI) corrodes aluminium (Al) current collector, but this corrosion can be impeded using di-coordination-strength anions. This concept adopts the weakly coordinated anion (FSI−) to exert high ionic transport kinetics, and the strongly coordinated anion (nitride, NO3−) to stabilize the Al foil surface. Such simultaneous Li solvation and Al tethering, highlight the importance of solvation chemistry to mediating Li transport and Al corrosion.
