Nanostructured Solid Electrolytes for Enhanced Safety and Performance of Battery Materials

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Solid-state batteries (SSB) have garnered significant attention by reason of their potential advantages over traditional liquid electrolyte batteries, including higher energy density, enhanced safety, and reduced volume. However, the development and implementation of solid electrolytes confront several challenges, such as lower ionic conductivity, dendrite formation, and interface stability issues. This review explores the current advancements in solid electrolytes (SLs), with a focus on nanostructured materials, including solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs), solid inorganic electrolytes (SIEs), and composite solid electrolytes (CSEs). The review highlights the benefits of nanostructuring in improving mechanical intensity, ionic conductivity and thermostability. Key methods for synthesizing nanostructured solid electrolytes (NSLs), such as the sol-gel method and 3D printing, are discussed. Additionally, the review addresses critical challenges, including the high cost of materials and manufacturing processes, and proposes future research directions to overcome these barriers. The purpose is to comprehensively understand the current status and future potential of NSL in promoting SSB technology.
