Sensors for battery safety applications

Abstract

The results presented here are the development of sensors based on layered semiconducting metal oxides reliable to detect early the electrolyte components typical of batteries, which can appear during their failure, such as 1,3-dioxololane, 1,2-dimethoxyethane, ethylene carbonate, dimethylcarbonate, lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, lithium nitrate and lithium hexafluorophosphate.
