Abstract
AbstractSolid polymer electrolytes are emerging as a key component for solid‐state lithium metal batteries, offering a promising combination of large‐scale processability and high safety. However, challenges remain, including limited ion transport and the unstable solid electrolyte interphase, which result in unsatisfactory ionic conductivity and uncontrollable lithium dendrite growth. To address these issues, a high‐throughput Li‐ion transport pathway is developed by incorporating tungsten sulfide enriched with sulfur vacancies (SVs) into a poly(vinylidene fluoride‐co‐hexafluoropropylene)‐based composite polymer electrolytes (CPEs). The SVs strong interaction in the CPEs facilitates homogeneous high‐throughput Li‐ion transport 1.9 × 10−3 S cm−1 at 25 °C) by enhancing the dissociation of lithium salts and effectively creates ample interfaces with the polymer chains to reduce the formation of inner vacuities. Moreover, the SVs confine FSI− anions, while the electron‐rich environment induced by sulfur atoms promotes the preferential degradation of bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide anions, ensuring uniform lithium deposition. This fosters the formation of inorganic nanocrystals on the lithium anode and effectively suppresses dendrite growth, enabling an ultra‐long lifetime of over 5500 h in Li||Li symmetric cells. When paired with sulfurized polyacrylonitrile cathode, a pouch cell capacity of 0.524 Ah is achieved, demonstrating the effectiveness of a homogeneous, high‐throughput Li‐ions transport mechanism.
