Asymmetric properties, electrode-electrolyte

Although at the present time the asymmetric quaternary ammonium-based IL is left with its kinetic properties unsolved, because of their cathodic stability it remains worthwhile to continue the investigation of their potential as an electrolyte for Li-ion batteries. And at the same time, including other class of ILs, it seems important to make the best use of them by considering the additives and alternative electrode materials. A lot of work still remains to be done to obtain both a general and a unified view of the basic behavior of ILs. For instance, there is nothing known about the surroundings of the Li" " ion in the electrolyte within the battery, and...
