摘要

Composite solid polymer electrolytes (CSPEs) are ideal candidates for metal batteries, offering flexibility, stability, high ionic conductivity, and compatibility with lithium metal. In this work, we developed a dual polymer-based (PVDF-HFP/PEO)/Li6.25La3Ga0.25Zr2O12 (LLGZO) based CSPE using an easily scalable solution casting method. The integration of dual polymer (PEO in PVDF-HFP matrix) and active ceramics (Ga doped LLZO) demonstrates a good Strategy to balance mechanical strength, ionic conductivity, and electrochemical stability for solid-state Lithium metal batteries. This Synergistic design led to a remarkable enhancement in room-temperature ionic conductivity of 1.08 × 10–4 S·cm−1, the lowest activation energy of 0.304 eV, a wide electrochemical Stability window of 5.23 V vs. Li/Li⁺, and a high transference number (0.74) at 60 °C for 10 wt% LLGZO-coated dual-polymer-based CSPE (LZ10). Additionally, it exhibited lower metal/electrolyte interfacial resistance (52.55Ω) and improved tensile Strength of 2.63 MPa. As a consequence, LZ10 enabled an excellent plating/stripping Stability for more than 900 h at varying current densities at 60 °C, with lower changes in bulk and interfacial resistance during long-term cycling. Moreover, the fabricated solid-state cell (Li/LZ10/LiFePO4) delivers superior capacity and cycling stability at various current densities at elevated temperatures. Cells also maintained ~ 84% capacity retention after 50 cycles with an excellent coulombic efficiency of > 98%. Thus, the compiled data suggest that the PVDF-HFP/PEO/LLGZO CSPE is a highly promising candidate for developing metal batteries.
