Abstract

In this study, we prepared an ionic liquid composite solid polymer electrolyte (PEO-LiTFSI-$Pyr_{14}TFSI$) with poly(ethylen oxide), lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, N-butyl-N-methylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide by blending-cross linking process. Although the PEO-LiTFSI-$Pyr_{14}TFSI$ composite solid polymer electrolyte displayed a small peak at 4.4 V, it had high electrochemical oxidation stability up to 5.7 V. Ionic conductivity of the PEO-LiTFSI-$Pyr_{14}TFSI$ composite solid polymer electrolyte increased with increasing temperature from $10^{-6}S\;cm^{-1}$ at $30^{\circ}C$ to $10^{-4}S\;cm^{-1}$ at $70^{\circ}C$. To investigate the electrochemical properties, the PEO-LiTFSI-$Pyr_{14}TFSI$ composite solid polymer electrolyte assembled with $LiFePO_4$ cathode and Li-metal anode. At 0.1 C-rate, the cell delivered $40mAh\;g^{-1}$ for $30^{\circ}C$, $69.8mAh\;g^{-1}$ for $40^{\circ}C$ and $113mAh\;g^{-1}$ for $50^{\circ}C$, respectively. The PEO-LiTFSI-$Pyr_{14}TFSI$ solid polymer electrolyte exhibited good charge-discharge performance in Li/SPE/$LiFePO_4$ cells at $50^{\circ}C$.

본 연구에서는 리튬 고분자 이차전지의 안정성과 전기화학적 특성을 향상시키기 위하여 poly(ethylen oxide)(PEO)를 lithium bis (trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, N-butyl-N-methylpyrrolidinium bis (trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide 와 블렌딩-가교 법으로 복합화시켜 PEO-LiTFSI-$Pyr_{14}TFSI$ 고분자 전해질을 제조하였다. 전기화학적 산화 안정성 테스트에서 PEOLiTFSI-$Pyr_{14}TFSI$ 복합 고분자 전해질은 비록 4.4 V에서 약간의 산화곡선을 보이지만 5.7 V까지 안정하였다. PEO-LiTFSI-$Pyr_{14}TFSI$ 고분자 전해질은 온도가 증가할수록 이온전도도가 증가하며, PEO계열의 고분자 전해질의 특성상 상온에서 $10^{-6}S\;cm^{-1}$로 낮지만 $70^{\circ}C$에서는 $10^{-4}S\;cm^{-1}$까지 증가 하였다. 리튬 고분자 전지의 전기화학적 특성을 측정하기 위해 $LiFePO_4$ 양극, PEOLiTFSI-$Pyr_{14}TFSI$ 복합 고분자 전해질, 리튬 음극으로 전지를 구성하였으며 0.1 C의 전류밀도에서 방전 용량이 $30^{\circ}C$에서 $40mAh\;g^{-1}$, $40^{\circ}C$에서는 $69.8mAh\;g^{-1}$, $50^{\circ}C$에서는 $113mAhg^{-1}$을 나타내 온도의 증가에 따라 방전 용량이 증가함을 알 수 있었다. PEO-LiTFSI-$Pyr_{14}TFSI$ 복합 고분자 전해질은 $LiFePO_4$양극과 함께 50도에서 가장 우수한 충-방전 성능을 보여주었다.
