Regulated Co-Solvation in Gel Polymer Electrolyte Enables Rapid and Selective Li+ Ion Transport for High-Rate Lithium Metal Batteries.

The development of gel polymer electrolytes (GPEs) suitable for high-rate lithium metal batteries (LMBs) is urgently needed but remains inherently challenging. This difficulty originates from the competition between the polymer network and the liquid electrolyte for lithium ion (Li+) coordination. Polymer-dominated coo...
