Abstract

We demonstrate a novel and facile approach to surface modification of high-voltage charged LiCoO₂, which is based on encapsulating LiCoO₂ by a polyimide (PI) gel polymer electrolyte layer. The PI is introduced onto the LiCoO₂ by thermally curing 4-component (pyromellitic dianhydride/biphenyl dianhydride/phenylenediamine/oxydianiline) polyamic acid. The PI nanoencapsulating layer features the high surface coverage, nanometer thickness, and facile ion transport. These unique characteristics are expected to enable the PI coating layer to effectively suppress the undesirable interfacial reaction of the LiCoO₂ with liquid electrolyte, which plays a key role in noticeably improving the 4.4 V cycle performance and mitigating the vigorous exothermic reaction between the charged LiCoO₂ and liquid electrolyte.
