Fluorine-oxygen co-coordination of lithium in fluorinated polymers for broad temperature quasi-solid-state batteries.

ABSTRACT: Polymer-based solid-state batteries operable across broad temperatures are critical for advanced energy storage but face limitations from sluggish ion transport kinetics in polymer electrolytes. Here, we develop a fluorinated quasi-solid polymer electrolyte that balances weak Li⁺-polymer interactions with efficient salt dissociation. This electrolyte was fabricated by in situ polymerization of 2,2,3,4,4,4-hexafluorobutyl acrylate. The incorporation of -CF₂- groups within 2,2,3,4,4,4-hexafluorobutyl acrylate promotes the formation a fluorine-oxygen co-coordination structure that decouples ion conduction from polymer relaxation. This mechanism creates more efficient Li⁺ transport pathways along polymer chains and surrounding solvent molecules, promoting uniform Li⁺ flux at the Li
