What is lithium electroplating?

Lithium electroplating is an electrochemically driven phase formation process in which new solid phases are formed at the direct contact interface of Li + and electrons, expressed as Li + (sol.) + e − → Li (s). Figure 2 shows different steps in the lithium electroplating process.

Can molten salt electroplate lithium ion battery cathode materials?

We demonstrate a general low-temperature (260°C) molten salt electrodeposition approach to directly electroplate the important lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery cathode materials LiCoO 2, LiMn 2 O 4, and Al-doped LiCoO 2.

How does Li + react with metal ions in electroplating?

Different from metal ions only undergoing liquid diffusion in the copper and zinc electroplating process, Li + experiences short-distance solid-state diffusion via the SEI layer before plating. SEI can redistribute Li + on the surface of the anode.

How does diffusion affect lithium electroplating?

For lithium electroplating with high current density, diffusion (originating from the formative concentration gradient) contributes more Li + flux in the HCE relative to the dilute electrolyte when the Li + near the electrode surface is depleted.

Can Li metal batteries be used in EVs?
