Abstract:
An electrolyte for use in an energy storage apparatus includes: a metal halide-based electrolytic solution arranged to electrically connect a cathode and an anode of the energy storage apparatus during an operation of charging and discharging cycle. The electrolytic solution includes a first metal halide arranged to prevent a dissolution of the cathode and/or a formation of dendrites on the anode during the operation of charging and discharging cycle, thereby maintaining cyclic stability of the energy storage apparatus.
