摘要 |
The invention discloses a method of increasing the cycle life of rechargeable battery with a negative electrode (anode) made of lithium or lithium-containing alloys and electrolyte/salt solution which comprises one or more non-aqueous organic solvents and one or more lithium salts, the method comprising adding to the electrolyte/salt solution a lithium dendrite scavenging additive in an amount sufficient that a rate of lithium dendrite formation is equal to or lower than a rate of lithium dissolution occurring due to interaction with the dendrite scavenging additive dissolved in the electrolyte. |
