By getting the right amount of salt, right where they want it, they&#8217;ve demonstrated a small lithium-metal battery can re-charge about seven times more than batteries with conventional electrolytes.<\/p>\n<p>Neither the press release nor the <em>Green Optimistic<\/em> report, however, provide greater detail about the greater range possible with the new chemistry.\u00a0 PNNL\u2019s headline gives a clue, \u201cResearch hints at double the driving range for electric vehicles.\u201d\u00a0 Beyond that, they note that \u201cLithium-metal batteries that replace a graphite electrode with a lithium electrode are the &#8216;holy grail&#8217; of energy storage systems because lithium has a greater storage capacity and, therefore, a lithium-metal battery has double or triple the storage capacity. That extra power enables electric vehicles to drive more than two times longer between charges.\u201d\u00a0 That \u201cextra power\u201d in sizes adaptable to EVs may be yet on the horizon, tests having been performed so far on coin-sized test cells.<\/p>\n<p>The \u201ccatch\u201d up to now is that the electrolytes used in today\u2019s batteries corrode the electrodes, resulting in shorter overall lives for the cells.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_12702\" style=\"width: 538px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12702\" class=\"size-large wp-image-12702\" src=\"http:\/\/sustainableskies.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/pnnl-electrolyte-528x352.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"528\" height=\"352\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-12702\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">PNNL thinks the key to the battery kingdom lies in electrolytes<\/p><\/div>\n<p>PNNL has apparently solved this set of opposing forces with a new \u201csecret sauce\u201d that contains the right amount of lithium salts.\u00a0 \u201cTheir study published in the journal Advanced Materials found out that increasing the concentration of lithium-based salt in the electrolyte solution forms a barrier around the electrodes, protecting them from corrosion and ultimately, lengthening the battery life.\u201d\u00a0 Two more problems arise from this solution, though.<\/p>\n<p>First, the lithium-based salt is expensive.\u00a0 Second, increased salt concentration increases the electrolyte viscosity and lowers its conductivity.\u00a0 Researchers found a fluorine-based solvent solved the quandary.<\/p>\n<p>PNNL senior battery researcher Ji Guang \u201cJason\u201d Zhang said, \u201cWe were trying to preserve the advantage of the high concentration of salt, but offset the disadvantages.
