Description
Bereket Woldegbreal Taklu and co-authors design a protective skin for lithium metal battery anodes in 2026. Lithium metal promises top energy density, but spiky dendrite growth threatens safety. A two-layer coating rich in lithium chloride plus a lithium-tin alloy was formed with stannic chloride as a sacrificial agent.
The coating levelled lithium flow, curbed electrolyte breakdown, and guided smooth, dendrite-free growth. Protected anodes ran over 600 hours at a demanding rate of 5 mA per square centimetre. Live microscopy watched growth while heat tracking caught electrolyte decay at the molecular level. Full cells kept 97.1 percent capacity after 360 cycles at a gentle rate and 93.8 percent after 480 cycles at a high rate.
