Abstract

Abstract The LiCoO2 (LCO) cathode is foreseen for extensive commercial applications owing to its high specific capacity and stability. Therefore, there is considerable interest in further enhancing its specific capacity by increasing the charging voltage. However, single‐crystal LCO suffers from a significant capacity degradation when charged to 4.5 V due to the irreversible phase transition and unstable structure. Herein, an ultra‐small amount (0.5% wt. in the electrode) of multi‐functional PIM‐1 (a polymer with intrinsic microporosity) additive is utilized to prepare a kind of binder‐free electrode. PIM‐1 modulates the solvation structure of LiPF6 due to its unique structure, which helps to form a stable, robust, and inorganic‐rich cathod‐eelectrolyte interphase (CEI) film on the surface of LCO at a high voltage of 4.5 V. This reduces the irreversible phase transition of LCO, thereby enhancing the cyclic stability and improving the rate performance, providing new perspectives for the electrodes fabrication and improving LCO‐based high‐energy‐density cathodes.
