Fluoroethylene carbonate is a fluorine and carbon-containing compound designed to be less corrosive to metals due to the replacement of hydrogen fluoride with fluorine. Fluoroethylene carbonate is particularly valued for its role in forming a stable solid electrolyte interface (SEI) layer on the anode during the initial charging cycles, which is for the battery′s efficiency and safety. It serves as an electrolyte in electrochemical reactions and a reactant in chemical reactions. Additionally, it acts as an additive for high-salt solutions and an electrode for electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The formation rate of this compound varies depending on the type of lithium salt employed.
