Versatile Solvent-Free Synthesis of Composite Polymer Electrolytes for Thin High-Performance Solid-State Lithium Metal Batteries.

ABSTRACT: The development of high-performance solid-state lithium metal batteries (SSBs) relies on the invention of efficient composite polymer electrolytes (CPEs) that offer both high ionic conductivity and mechanical stability. However, mixing polymers and inorganic particles often leads to inhomogeneous distributions, inhibiting ion movement. This work introduces a novel solvent-free synthesis for thin CPE films, enabling scalable and straightforward electrolyte fabrication. The proposed hybrid electrolyte system consists of a self-crosslinking polyether matrix incorporating lithium-ion-conducting ceramic particles. The synthesis method facilitates homogeneous dispersion of Li_6.45Al_0.05La₃Zr_1.6Ta_0.4O₁₂ (LLZO), thus preventing agglo
