The influence of polymer content and curing conditions of PEGDA-based quasi-solid electrolytes on interfacial stability and cycling performance in lithium metal batteries were investigated. To assess the degree of polymerization, Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy measurement was conducted, focusing on the consumption of acrylate functional groups. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, linear sweep voltammetry, and critical current density tests were used to evaluate ionic conductivity, electrochemical stability, and lithium plating/stripping behavior. In addition, high-loading NCM811 (LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2)/Li metal cells were assembled to examine cycling performance under practical conditions. Among various compositions, the electrolyte containing 4 wt% PEGDA cured at 50-60 ℃ exhibited the highest capacity retention and electrochemical stability. These results highlight that the optimized processing conditions significantly enhance the performance and reliability of quasi-solid-state lithium metal batteries.
본 연구는 리튬 금속 음극의 계면 불안정성과 수명 저하 문제를 해결하기 위해, poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) 기반 반고체 전해질의 고분자 함량 및 경화 조건이 전해질 특성과 전지 성능에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) 분석을 통해 겔화 진행도를 평가하였으며, 전기화학 측정과 고로딩 NCM811 (LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2)양극 적용 전지를 이용한 충·방전 실험 결과, 4 wt% PEGDA 조성 및 50-60 ℃의 경화 조건에서 가장 우수한 용량 유지율과 전기화학적 안정성이 나타났다.
Keywords: quasi-solid state battery, gel-polymer electrolyte, Fourier-transform infrared.
