How Lithium-Ion Battery Degradation Arises from Solid-Electrolyte Interphase Evolution

How Lithium-Ion Battery Degradation Arises from Solid-Electrolyte Interphase Evolution

锂离子电池退化如何源于固态电解质界面层演化

  1. During initial charging cycles, electrolyte decomposition forms a nanoscale solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer on the anode—essential for stability but inherently resistive.
  2. This SEI grows non-uniformly over time, consuming active lithium ions and increasing internal impedance—manifesting as capacity fade and voltage hysteresis.
  3. Electrochemical stress fractures SEI locally, exposing fresh anode surface to further decomposition and irreversible lithium trapping.
  4. High-voltage cathodes (>4.3 V vs. Li/Li⁺) accelerate transition-metal dissolution, migrating ions that catalyze SEI thickening at the anode.
  5. Thermal management systems maintain 25–35°C operation to suppress parasitic side reactions—yet every 10°C rise doubles degradation kinetics.
  6. Advanced diagnostics like operando X-ray diffraction track crystalline phase transitions in nickel-rich cathodes correlated with SEI evolution.
  7. Solid-state batteries replace liquid electrolytes with ceramic or polymer conductors, eliminating SEI formation—but face interfacial resistance challenges.
  8. Battery passport initiatives now require manufacturers to disclose SEI growth models for circular economy assessments and second-life repurposing.
  9. Machine learning forecasts state-of-health using voltage relaxation profiles—capturing SEI-related charge-transfer resistance changes.
  10. Fundamentally, SEI represents a kinetic compromise: necessary passivation versus progressive electrochemical inefficiency.
  11. Research focuses on artificial SEI layers—atomic-layer-deposited Al₂O₃ or LiF coatings that stabilize interfaces without consuming lithium.
  12. Thus, battery longevity hinges not on electrode chemistry alone, but on interfacial thermodynamics governed by nanoscale solid-state electrochemistry.
