Outline of Research at the Start |
資源面での優位性のみならず、Liイオン電池に比類する高電圧電池系が実現可能な利点から、次世代大型蓄電池の現実解としてカリウム(K)イオン電池があり、その研究開発、特に電極材料においては近年、急激に加速している。しかしながら、室温で作動が可能な電極材料が少ない。Kイオンのダイナミクスの促進(いわば電池の性能向上)には中温作動が必須であり、その環境に適用可能な電解質の開発は重要である。従って、本研究ではKイオン二次電池用のイオン液体・固体電解質の開発に取り組み、高エネルギー密度・高安全なKイオン二次電池の創製に資する。

Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Aiming to design a 4V-class potassium-ion battery, we researched on a new electrolyte that can be used stably at high-voltage operation. In order to examine the stability of the new electrolyte, electrochemical performance was evaluated using various cathode materials that operate at high-voltage regimes. Conventional electrolytes that use organic solvents generally decompose when operated at high voltages leading to poor performance of the cathode materials. However, we found that electrolytes based on ionic salts (in particular pyrrolidinium-based ionic liquids) are effective in improving the electrochemical performance metrics of cathode materials such as cyclability at high-voltage operation. Moreover, we also developed new cathode materials to be coupled with ionic-liquid-based electrolytes. This study shows the prospects of developing high-voltage and high-energy-density potassium-ion batteries.
