Electrochemical properties of the Al current collector being used in lithium ion batteries have been studied in the 4 different aprotic electrolytes(1 M $LiBF_4$ EC : DMC, 1 M $LiBF_4$ EC : EMC. 1 M $LiPF_6$ EC : DMC. 1 M $LiPF_6$ EC : EMC) employing cyclic voltammetry and impedance measurement. Al electrode showed a wide range of the electrochemical window(0.5~4.1 V vs. $Li/Li^{+}$). However, solid interfacial materials has been formed on the Al surface due to reduction of impurities($H_2O$, $O_2$, etc), lithium salts, and electrolytes at low applied potentials, and aluminum oxides in the highly oxidizing potential as well. Especially, Al current collector was susceptible to localized in consequence of impurities in electrolytes.

So far the most practical polymer electrolytes are gel systems, which contain a polymeric matrix, a lithium salt, and aprotic organic solvents. This has met with success but has had disadvantages that the addition of solvents promotes deterioration of the electrolyte's mechanical properties and increases its reactivity towards the lithium metal anode.[1](omitted)

The relative viscosities and the osmotic coefficients of alkaline metal iodides (NaI, KI, RbI, CsI) in methanol, ethanol, dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), and sulfolane (TMS) have been measured by Ubbelohde viscometer and vapor pressure osmometry at 45 ∼ $120^{\circ}C.$ The order of A and B coefficients in viscosity for alkaline metal iodides are MeOH > EtOH > TMS > DMSO, and TMS > EtOH > DMSO > MeOH. dB/dT values for the alkaline metal iodides are in the order of NaI > KI > RbI > CsI in the protic solvents, while those for the aprotic solvents are in the reverse order. The order of the osmotic coefficients for the alkaline metal iodides is EtOH > DMSO > MeOH > TMS.
