Abstract
The performance of thin lithium metal anodes is affected due to issues that weaken the electrode-electrolyte interphase. In this work, a coating layer serving as a Li+ traffic controller based on hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bis(trifluoromethanesulphonyl)imide ([CTA][TFSI]) and poly (vinylidene difluoride co-hexafluoropropylene) (P(VDF-HFP)) is used to stabilize the thin lithium metal interface. The CTA+ ions in the coating layer can effectively regulate the distribution of Li+ concentration to promote uniform deposition of lithium. The anion of [CTA][TFSI] can optimize solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) with inorganic-rich components, which improve the ionic conductivity and reaction kinetics. Furthermore, the flexible polymer skeleton can fortify the fragile SEI, facilitating the consistent operation of the battery. Due to these improvements, a thin Li metal anode (4 mAh cm-2) with a coating layer in a Li||Li symmetric cell demonstrates a lifespan of 600 h at 1 mA cm-2 and 1 mAh cm-2. Notably, full cells with an ultra-low negative electrode/positive electrode = 1 (N/P = 1) demonstrate a stable performance over 200 cycles and 90 cycles at 0.5C and 1C (1C = 170 mA g-1), respectively.

Abstract
From scientific and technological points of view, poly(vinylidene fluoride), PVDF, is one of the most exciting polymers due to its overall physicochemical characteristics. This polymer can crystalize into five crystalline phases and can be processed in the form of films, fibers, membranes, and specific microstructures, being the physical properties controllable over a wide range through appropriate chemical modifications. Moreover, PVDF-based materials are characterized by excellent chemical, mechanical, thermal, and radiation resistance, and for their outstanding electroactive properties, including high dielectric, piezoelectric, pyroelectric, and ferroelectric response, being the best among polymer systems and thus noteworthy for an increasing number of technologies. This review summarizes and critically discusses the latest advances in PVDF and its copolymers, composites, and blends, including their main characteristics and processability, together with their tailorability and implementation in areas including sensors, actuators, energy harvesting and storage devices, environmental membranes, microfluidic, tissue engineering, and antimicrobial applications. The main conclusions, challenges and future trends concerning materials and application areas are also presented.

Abstract
Renewable energy sources require efficient energy storage systems. Lithium-ion batteries stand out among those systems, but safety and cycling stability problems still need to be improved. This can be achieved by the implementation of solid polymer electrolytes (SPE) instead of the typically used separator/electrolyte system. Thus, ternary SPEs have been developed based on poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF-HFP) and poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene-chlorofluoroethylene), P(VDF-TrFE-CFE) as host polymers, clinoptilolite (CPT) zeolite added to stabilize the battery cycling performance, and ionic liquids (ILs) (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium thiocyanate ([BMIM][SCN])), 1-methyl-1-propylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([PMPyr][TFSI]) or lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI), incorporated to increase the ionic conductivity. The samples were processed by doctor blade with solvent evaporation at 160 °C. The nature of the polymer matrix and fillers affect the morphology and mechanical properties of the samples and play an important role in electrochemical parameters such as ionic conductivity value, electrochemical window stability, and lithium-transference number. The best ionic conductivity (4.2 × 10-5 S cm-1) and lithium transference number (0.59) were obtained for the PVDF-HFP-CPT-[PMPyr][TFSI] sample. Charge-discharge battery tests at C/10 showed excellent battery performance with values of 150 mAh g-1 after 50 cycles, regardless of the polymer matrix and IL used. In the rate performance tests, the best SPE was the one based on the P(VDF-TrFE-CFE) host polymer, with a discharge value at C-rate of 98.7 mAh g-1, as it promoted ionic dissociation. This study proves for the first time the suitability of P(VDF-TrFE-CFE) as SPE in lithium-ion batteries, showing the relevance of the proper selection of the polymer matrix, IL type, and lithium salt in the formulation of the ternary SPE, in order to optimize solid-state battery performance. In particular, the enhancement of the ionic conductivity provided by the IL and the effect of the high dielectric constant polymer P(VDF-TrFE-CFE) in improving battery cyclability in a wide range of discharge rates must be highlighted.

Abstract
Solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) will allow improving safety and durability in next-generation solid-state lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Within the SPE class, ternary composites are a suitable approach as they provide high room-temperature ionic conductivity and excellent cycling and electrochemical stability. In this work, ternary SPEs based on poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF-HFP) as a polymer host, clinoptilolite (CPT) zeolite, and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium thiocyanate ([Bmim][SCN])) ionic liquid (IL) as fillers were produced by solvent evaporation at different temperatures (room temperature, 80, 120, and 160 °C). Solvent evaporation temperature affects the morphology, degree of crystallinity, and mechanical properties of the samples as well as the ionic conductivity and lithium transference number. The highest ionic conductivity (1.2 × 10-4 S·cm-1) and lithium transference number (0.66) have been obtained for the SPE prepared at room temperature and 160 °C, respectively. Charge-discharge battery tests show the highest value of discharge capacity of 149 and 136 mAh·g-1 at C/10 and C/2 rates, respectively, for the SPE prepared at 160 °C. We conclude that the fine control of the solvent evaporation temperature during the preparation of the SPE allows us to optimize solid-state battery performance.
