Can Ionic Fluid Electrolyte Improve Lithium-ion Batteries ?
In the past few days ,I searched a very interesting news that ionic fluid electrolyte can improves lithium-ion batteries,but I doubt about it.Is that possible? Researchers at the Central Research Institute of Electric Power Industry (CRIEPI) in Japan have devised a new type of cathode that improves the performance of lithium-ion batteries that use an ionic liquid as the electrolyte. Unlike the organic solvents usually used as the electrolyte in a li-ion battery (such as  Aspire 3000 battery BTP-43D1 BTP-58A1,Dell Inspiron 1721 Battery,C1295, PC764, Dell GD761, Dell KD476 etc.), room-temperature ionic liquids (RTIL) are nonflammable and nonvolatile. However, the RTILs lack electrochemical stability up to the reduction potential of lithium. Batteries designed with the new cathode have around 30% higher charge storage capacity and can be recharged up to three times as often than other lithium-ion batteries with the ionic liquid electrolyte, according to CRIEPI. The researchers used a mix
