Lithium Difluoro(Oxalato)Borate(LiODFB)

LiODFB is used as a thermally stable novel salt and an electrolytic additive for lithium-ion batteries. It facilitates the formation of stable solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) on the negative electrode during the fabrication of the cell. It substantially enhances the cyclic performance, capacity and power retention of the electrochemical system.Lithium difluorooxalatoborate (LIODFB) is a salt for high-performance Li-ion batteries with improved cycle life; power capability; low temperature and high rate performance of the battery. It has the advantages of both lithium bis(oxalato)borate (LiBOB) and LiBF4. LIODFB also stabilizes the solid electrolyte interface (SEI) on the surface of a graphite anode and is also used as an additive to improve the cycling efficiency and capacity retention of cells
