Application

Lithium acetate can be used:

• As an additive in the formation of a "water-in-bisalt" electrolyte for the application in rechargeable lithium batteries. It helps to regulate the cation size and composition of the electrolyte, influencing its conductivity, stability, and overall electrochemical properties.
• As a component in the fabrication of solid polymer electrolytes. It enhances the ionic conductivity and electrochemical properties of the polymer electrolyte for its application as a separator in lithium-ion batteries.
• As a component in the development of nanocomposite polymer electrolytes for solid-state supercapacitor applications.

Lithium acetate is used to create lithium containing perovskite thin films. Additionally, lithium ethanoate can be utilized to create thin film electrodes for lithium ion batteries, such as spinel Li₄Ti₅O₁₂.
