Electrolytes including 0.8, 1.0, 1.2 and 1.4 m LiBF4 were prepared in EC:DMC solvents.
After electrochemical tests, the cells containing LiBF4 electrolytes were disassembled.
The effect of electrolytes on the stability of LiMn2O4 cathode materials were studied.
The LiBF4 concentration should be optimized to keep stable of spinel LiMn2O4 cathode.
1.2 m electrolyte yielded maximum discharge capacity, provided better cathode stability.
