Lithium Metal Batteries: A Temperature‐Responsive Electrolyte Endowing Superior Safety Characteristic of Lithium Metal Batteries (Adv. Energy Mater. 6/2020)

In article number 1903441, Guanglei Cui and co-workers design a temperature-responsive electrolyte for lithium metal batteries (LMBs). This smart liquid electrolyte can be rapidly transformed into the solid state at elevated temperature. Thus, LMBs with this electrolyte reinvent themselves under thermal exposure, just like the rebirth of a phoenix, exhibiting outstanding safety.
