초록

In this study, we investigated the structural effect of composite solid electrolytes of Al-doped LLZO and PVDF-HFP (0D_Al-LLZO@PVDF-HFP and 1D_Al-LLZO@PVDF-HFP) on electrochemical (EC) performance and fire safety through a systematic evaluation and comparative tests. The unique structure and advantageous features of composite solid electrolytes (1D_Al-LLZO@PVDF-HFP) were highlighted by comparing controls (PVDF-HFP and 0D_Al-LLZO@PVDF-HFP) with physicochemical and electrochemical analyses and fire safety tests The structure and morphology of Al-doped LLZO/PVDF-HFP composites were analyzed with X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), while their chemical functionalities and free ion clusters were examined with Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy, respectively. The 1D_Al-LLZO@PVDF-HFP composite with a 1D structured Al-LLZO filler network in the PVDF-HFP matrix could effectively regulate the crystallinity of PVDF-HFP and facilitated lithium salt dissociation, resulting in a high lithium-ion transference number and ionic conductivity. As a result, the 1D_Al-LLZO@PVDF-HFP composite electrolyte with an optimized structure and low Al-LLZO content (~5.1 wt%) exhibited enhanced ionic conductivity (σ: 1.40 × 10<sup>-4</sup> S/cm) with low interfacial resistance, broadened EC stability (voltage window: 4.75 V vs. Li/Li<sup>+</sup>), and a high lithium-ion transference number (0.75) superior to that of 0D_Al-LLZO@PVDF-HFP. In electrochemical characterizations, the 1D_Al-LLZO@PVDF-HFP-based EC cell demonstrated enhanced performance in a lithium symmetric cell (>2000 h) and full cell (LiFePO<sub>4</sub>|electrolyte|Li) of a reversible capacity of 102.7 mAh/g at 2C with a capacity retention of 85.7% over 200 cycles, better than that of a 0D_ Al-LLZO@PVDF-HFP-based EC cell. In flammability tests, Al-LLZO@PVDF-HFP demonstrated enhanced fire safety (nonflammability) compared with that of a PVDF-HFP-based electrolyte regardless of the composite structure, suggesting the importance of inorganic filler rather than their structural morphology in the composite.
