1-Ethyl-1-methyl piperidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (EMP-TFSI) is an ionic liquid with a melting temperature of 85 °C. Although it is a solid salt, it shows good miscibility with carbonate solvents, which allows EMP-TFSI to be used as a co-solvent in these systems. Ethylene carbonate is another solid co-solvent used in Li-ion batteries. Due to its smaller cationic size, EMP-TFSI provides better conductivity as a co-solvent than 1-methyl-1-propyl piperidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (MPP-TFSI), which is the smallest room-temperature piperidinium liquid salt known. In cells with 50 wt% IL and 50 wt% carbonate electrolyte, an EMP-TFSI mixed electrolyte performs better than an MPP-TFSI mixed electrolyte. Additionally, the discharge capacity values obtained from rate capability tests carried out with mixed EMP-TFSI are as good as those conducted with a pure carbonate electrolyte.
