Abstract
An electrolyte for an electrochemical storage device is disclosed. In one embodiment, the electrolyte includes a lithium salt from about 3% to about 20% by weight, a primary solvent from about 15% to about 25% by weight, wide-temperature co-solvents from about 14% to about 55% by weight, interface forming compounds from about 0.5% to about 2.0% by weight, and a flame retardant compound from about 6% to about 60% by weight. The electrolyte interacts with the positive and negative electrodes of the electrochemical storage device to provide both high performance and improved safety such that the electrolyte offers adequate ionic conductivity over the desired operating temperature range, a wide electrochemical stability window, high capacities for both the cathode and anode, low electrode-electrolyte interfacial resistance, and reduced flammability.
