Abstract
Disclosed are novel methods and techniques for introducing liquefied gas solvents into electrochemical devices. Unlike conventional electrolytes, the disclosed electrolytes are based on 'liquefied gas solvents' mixed with various salts, referred to as 'liquefied gas electrolytes.' The disclosed liquefied gas electrolytes can have wide electrochemical potential windows, high conductivity, low temperature capability and/or high-pressure solvent properties. Non-limiting examples of a class of liquefied gases that can be used as solvents for electrolytes include hydrofluorocarbons, and in particular include fluoromethane, difluoromethane, tetrafluoroethane, and pentafluoroethane.
