Boron trifluoride has been used as an electrolyte additive for improving cycle life of rechargeable lithium batteries. Electrolytes play an important role in ensuring the stable cycling of rechargeable lithium metal batteries. The carbonate-based systems can be improved by using BF3 Dimethyl Carbonate complex.
The Boron trifluoride and Boron Trifluoride Dimethyl carbonate complex can be both utilized as additives for the electrolyte of the lithium batteries. The boosting of the power generating efficiency contributes to the reduction of the pressure to our environment.
