Lithium sulfur battery

A lithium sulfur battery comprising an electrolyte solvent which comprises at least one fluorosubstituted compound is described. Preferred fluorosubstituted compounds which are predominantly solvents are notably selected from the group consisting of fluorosubstituted carboxylic acid esters, fluorosubstituted carboxylic acid amides, fluorosubstituted fluorinated ethers, fluorosubstituted carbamates, fluorosubstituted cyclic carbonates, fluorosubstituted acyclic carbonates, fluorosubstituted ethers, perfluoroalkyl phosphoranes, fluorosubstituted phosphites, fluorosubstituted phosphates, fluorosubstituted phosphonates, and fluorosubstituted heterocycles. Monofluoroethylene carbonate, cis-difluoroethylene carbonate, trans-difluoroethylene carbonate, 4,4-difluoroethylene carbonate, trifluoroethylene carbonate, tetrafluoroethylene carbonate, 4-fluoro-4-methyl-1,3-dioxolane-2-one, 4-fluoro-4-ethyl-1,3-dioxolane-2-one, 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl-methyl carbonate, 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl-fluoromethyl carbonate are preferred. The solvent may further comprise a non-fluorinated solvent, e.g., ethylene carbonate, a dialkyl carbonate, or propylene carbonate. Use of such fluorinated compound as additive for such batteries and specific electrolyte solutions.
