Tóm tắt:Understanding and characterizing the transport and thermodynamic properties of electrolytes are critical for optimizing battery performance. In this study, we employ operando Raman gradient analysis (ORGA) to characterize the concentration-dependent diffusion coefficient, transference number, ionic conductivity, and thermodynamic factor of potassium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (KFSI) in triethyl phosphate (TEP), an ideal model system and one of the most promising K-ion battery electrolytes. ORGA demonstrates results consistent with conventional state-of-the-art methods while proving to be significantly more electrolyte- and time-efficient. Additionally, we probe, for the first time, the concentration-dependent transport and thermodynamic properties of KFSI-TEP, providing key parameters for K-ion battery modeling.
