Abstract

As the cathode materials in conversion-type lithium ion batteries, transition-metal chlorides are well-known to easily dissolve in many organic solvents. However, the LiPF₆/methyl difluoroacetate (MFA; CHF₂COOCH₃) electrolyte is effective in suppressing the dissolution of the CuCl₂ electrode, as reported for a Li/CuCl₂ battery. This effect did not arise in the MFA solvent without LiPF₆, but did on slightly dissolving LiPF₆ in the MFA solvent. This was because a very small amount of film was formed on the surface of the CuCl₂ electrode due to the addition of the small amount of LiPF6, and the film was composed of copper fluoride hydroxide, partial release of Cl from CuCl₂, and CuCl.
