Oy. Egorkina et Am. Skundin, TEMPERATURE EFFECTS ON LITHIUM INTERCALATION INTO CARBONIZED CLOTH, Russian journal of electrochemistry, 33(4), 1997, pp. 427-431
The rate of lithium corrosion from intercalated carbon electrodes is m
easured for different intercalation degrees in various electrolytes at
temperatures ranging from -35 to 45 degrees C. The corrosion kinetics
is shown to hardly depend on the electrolyte nature and intercalation
degree. Corrosion is assumed to be limited precisely by the rate of t
he cathodic electrolyte reduction. The temperature coefficient for the
equilibrium potential of intercalate is determined in 1 M LiClO4 in p
ropylene carbonate and dimethoxyethane mixture solutions. The kinetics
of lithium intercalation (and deintercalation) into carbonized cloth
is studied at -35 to 45 degrees C.
