Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A nanoconfined metal-containing electrolyte comprising a layer of enclosed nanostructures in which each enclosed nanostructure contains a liquid metal-containing electrolyte, wherein said enclosed nanostructures are in physical contact with each other. Metal-ion batteries containing the nanoconfined electrolyte in contact with an anode and cathode of the battery are also described. Methods for producing the nanoconfined electrolyte are also described.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A nanoconfined metal-containing electrolyte comprising a layer of enclosed nanostructures having a particle size of at least 10 nm and up to 500 nm, wherein each enclosed nanostructure contains a liquid metal-containing electrolyte, wherein said enclosed nanostructures are in physical contact with each other, wherein said enclosed nanostructures contain pores, with at least 90% of the pores having a pore size of up to 6 nm, and wherein said nanostructures are hollow when not filled with the liquid metal-containing electrolyte. 2. The electrolyte according to claim 1 , wherein said enclosed nanostructures contain pores, with at least 90% of the pores having a pore size of up to 2 nm. 3. The electrolyte according to claim 1 , wherein said enclosed nanostructures have a particle size of at least 10 nm and up to 100 nm. 4. The electrolyte according to claim 1 , wherein said enclosed nanostructures have a particle size of at least 10 nm and up to 50 nm. 5. The electrolyte according to claim 1 , wherein said enclosed nanostructures have a metal oxide composition. 6. The electrolyte according to claim 5 , wherein said metal oxide composition is silicon oxide. 7. The electrolyte according to claim 1 , wherein said enclosed nanostructures have a crosslinked polymer composition. 8. The electrolyte according to claim 1 , wherein said liquid metal-containing electrolyte comprises metal salt dissolved in an organic solvent. 9. The electrolyte according to claim 1 , wherein said liquid metal-containing electrolyte comprises a metal salt dissolved in an ionic liquid.
