Perspective-Semi-Solid Electrolytes Based on Deep Eutectic Solvents: Opportunities and Future Directions

Review article, 2020

In the past years the interest in deep eutectic solvents (DESs) has been steadily increasing, much due to the possibilities to rationally design their special physical properties by choosing the right combination of components. This perspective aims to help unifying how deep eutectic solvents should be reported and explores the vast opportunities for semi-solid electrolytes based on DESs. The latter connects well to the trend on research towards solid-state energy storage devices, emphasizing the aim of increased safety.
