Since the potential of the negative electrode of lithium-ion batteries is close to that of lithium metal, the negative electrode is relatively active and unstable in aqueous solutions. Therefore, a nonaqueous, aprotic organic solvent should be used as the lithium-ion carrier. The mixture of organic solvents and lithium salts constitutes the nonaqueous liquid electrolyte, also referred to as the organic liquid electrolyte, which is an indispensable ingredient of lithium-ion batteries and an important component ...
