ANODE-LESS LITHIUM ION BATTERY

The present invention pertains to an anode-less lithium ion battery comprising a) a cathode comprising a cathode current collector and a cathode electro-active material on the cathode current collector; b) an anode current collector; c) a liquid electrolyte composition between the a) cathode and the b) anode current collector; and d) a separator, wherein the c) liquid electrolyte composition comprises i) at least 70% by volume (vol %) of a solvent mixture with respect to the total volume of the electrolyte composition, comprising at least one fluorinated ether compound and at least one non-fluorinated ether compound, and ii) at least one lithium salt.
