The invention relates to a laminated lithium-ion cell which comprises flexible layers, wherein the negative electrode is lithium metal, lithium alloy or a metallic bonded fiber web or a foam, which comprises a lithium-intercalating material such as carbon, graphite, tungsten dioxide, molybdenum dioxide, titanium dioxide, titanium disulfide or vanadium pentoxide as the active component, the separator is made of a porous polymer in which a non-aqueous electrolyte is immobilized, and the positive electrode as the active material comprises lithiated manganese dioxide, manganese spinel, lithium-metal oxides, lithium-metal mixed oxides or lithium-metal sulfides.

Laminated lithium-ion cell and process for fabricating same

The invention relates to a method for preparing polymer electrolytes for rechargeable lithium intercalation cells which contain a dissociable lithium salt dispersed in a polymeric matrix, the polymeric matrix being a self-supporting film of a copolymer of vinylidene difluoride and hexafluoropropylene, in which the plasticizer is exchanged for a solution of the dissociable lithium salt, so that the polymeric electrolyte 20 to 70 wt % of the solution of the dissociable lithium salt, and is characterized in that a plasticizer is used which is stable under the electrochemical conditions of a rechargeable lithium intercalation cell and is selected from the group consisting of hexylene carbonate, octylene carbonate or tributyl phosphate.
