Electrolyte for lithium secondary battery and lithium secondary battery comprising same
The present disclosure relates to an electrolyte for a lithium secondary battery, and in particular, to a liquid electrolyte capable of stabilizing lithium metal and suppressing lithium dendrite growth, and a lithium secondary battery including the same. The lithium secondary battery provided with the electrolyte according to the present disclosure has an excellent cycle-dependent capacity retention rate, and accordingly, is effective in improving a battery lifespan property.
1. A lithium secondary battery comprising:
a positive electrode including a positive electrode active material;
a negative electrode including lithium metal;
a separator; and
an electrolyte,
wherein the electrolyte comprises,
a solvent consisting of an ether-based solvent;
1.0 M of LiFSI; and
1 wt % of LiNO 3 based on the total amount of the liquid electrolyte;
wherein the ether-based solvent is a mixed solvent in which 1,3-dioxolane (DOL) and 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) are mixed in a volume ratio of 1:1;
wherein a solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) membrane including LiF is formed on a surface of the negative electrode by charging and discharging the battery 2 times to 7 times to a voltage of 0.1 V to 3 V (vs. Li/Li+), and
wherein the SEI membrane includes the LiF in 3.0% by weight or greater with respect to a total weight of the SEI membrane.
