component at high voltage, the LiBOB-derived SEI layer could
minimize the reaction between electrolyte components and

thus decrease the oxidation of electrolyte. Additionally, the
acidic species from the electrolyte decomposition may lead to
the corrosion of the cathode form the surface to bulk. It is
found that the content of acidic species on the surface is also
reduced by the LiBOB-derived SEI layer, which suppresses
degradation of the cathode structure.33, 34

4. Conclusions
The novel rheological phase reaction method is employed to
synthesize lithium salt LiBOB without purification procedure.
The results of XRD, ICP, and 11B NMR indicate that the as-
obtained LiBOB has high purity comparable to the commercial
samples and the one prepared from solid state reaction
method with purification. The rheological phase reaction
method realizes simplification of the synthetic process for pure
LiBOB. Furthermore, LiBOB as electrolyte additive in

results confirm that LiBOB additive participates in the reaction
for SEI film formation, which improves the interfacial stability
and mitigates the structural deterioration of lithium-rich
cathode. The issues in discharge voltage fade and energy
degradation can also be eased in presence of LiBOB as
electrolyte additive.
