Lithium triflate

Lithium triflate

Lithium triflate (LiCF3SO3) is a lithium complex salt used in the preparation of electrolytes for some lithium ion batteries. It is one of several possible lithium salts, including lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6), lithium hexafluoroarsenate monohydrate (LiAsF6), lithium perchlorate (LiClO4), and lithium tetrafluoroborate (LiBF4), that can be mixed with a nonaqueous solvent, such as ethylene carbonate, to form an electrolyte.From: Fundamentals of Polymer Engineering [2018], ESR spectroscopic investigation of gamma-irradiated lithium trifluoromethanesulfonate [2019], Solid State Chemistry [2020]

The previously existing salts used in Li-ion cell research include most notably lithium perchlorate (LiClO4), lithium tetrafluoroborate (LiBF4), lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6), lithium hexafluoroarsenate, and lithium trifluoromethylsulfonate (LiSO3CF3, also called lithium triflate and often noted as LiTf).

Lithium trifluoromethanesulfonate (CF3SO3Li), also known as lithium triflate (LiTf), is used in the preparation of electrolytes for some lithium ion batteries (39–41). Its simple structure and consistence of tissue-equivalent atoms lead us to determine the spectroscopic parameters of the radicals produced upon gamma irradiation of LiTf through a detailed ESR investigation and to determine the dosimetric potential in low (1–7 Gy) and intermediate dose ranges (0.5–7.0 kGy).
