Abstract
A rechargeable battery has a cathode including a cathode active material selected from lithium iron phosphate, lithium cobalt oxide, lithium manganese oxide, lithium nickel cobalt aluminum oxide, or lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide. An anode includes an anode active material selected from lithium, lithium titanium oxide, graphite, or silicon. A separator is positioned between the cathode and the anode. The separator is impregnated with an in-situ-formed and synchronously polymerized non-flammable quasi-solid-state electrolyte. The electrolyte is formed from a solution of monomer, lithium salt, and cross-linker. The solution wets the cathode active material and the anode active material such that the polymerized non-flammable quasi-solid-state electrolyte impregnates the cathode active material and the anode active material. The manufacturing procedures are compatible with production methods of Li-ion batteries, such as drop casting, impregnating, injecting, and printing.
