Modern technologies used in the sea, the poles, or aerospace require reliable batteries with outstanding performance at temperatures below zero degrees. However, commercially available lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) show significant performance degradation under low-temperature (LT) conditions.
LIBs can store energy and operate well in the standard temperature range of 20–60 °C, but performance significantly degrades when the temperature drops below zero [2, 3]. The most frost-resistant batteries operate at temperatures as low as −40 °C, but their capacity decreases to about 12% .
Owing to their several advantages, such as light weight, high specific capacity, good charge retention, long-life cycling, and low toxicity, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have been the energy storage devices of choice for various applications, including portable electronics like mobile phones, laptops, and cameras .
Additionally, ether-based and liquefied gas electrolytes with weak solvation, high Li affinity and superior ionic conductivity are promising candidates for Li metal batteries working at ultralow temperature.
Two main approaches have been proposed to overcome the LT limitations of LIBs: coupling the battery with a heating element to avoid exposure of its active components to the low temperature and modifying the inner battery components. Heating the battery externally causes a temperature gradient in the direction of its thickness.
Main research flaws of LIBs for ultra-low temperatures are pointed out for tackling. Modern technologies used in the sea, the poles, or aerospace require reliable batteries with outstanding performance at temperatures below zero degrees.
