Abstract
The invention encompasses battery electrolytes and batteries. In one aspect, the invention encompasses a battery electrolyte which includes the lithium salts, LiN(CF,SO,),, and LiCF,SO,in a solvent blend comprising ethylene carbonate, propylene carbonate, and 1,2-dimethoxyethane. In another aspect, the invention encompasses a battery. The battery includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and an electrolyte between the first and second electrodes. The electrolyte comprises these lithium salts in a solvent blend comprising ethylene carbonate, propylene carbonate, and 1,2-dimethoxyethane. In yet another aspect, the invention encompasses another embodiment of a battery. The battery includes a cathode comprising at least one of MnO,and (CF),, and an anode comprising lithium. The battery further includes a non-aqueous electrolyte between the cathode and the anode. The non-aqueous electrolyte comprises the lithium salts in a solvent blend comprising ethylene carbonate, propylene carbonate, and 1,2-dimethoxyethane. The lithium salts comprise a mixture of LiN(CF,SO,),, and LiCF,SO,.
