In order to study the structure and property development of polyacrylonitrile fiber during spinning process with ionic liquid as solvent, the 13 wt% PAN/[BMICl solution was prepared by dissolving polyacrylonitrile (PAN) in 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([BMICl). The dry-jet wet spinning of PAN/[BMIM]Cl was carried out to obtain the samples along spinning line. The mechanical properties, dynamic mechanical properties (DMA) and supramolecular structure of PAN fiber were analyzed. It is found that along spinning line tensile strength of PAN fiber increased significantly; initially, elongation at break increased followed by subsequent decrease. The fibers glass transition temperature (Tg) drops initially and later becomes constant; however, the fibers crystallinity and orientation increased.

We explore a novel ether aided superconcentrated ionic liquid electrolyte; a combination of ionic liquid, <i>N</i>-propyl-<i>N</i>-methylpyrrolidinium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (C<sub>3</sub>mpyrFSI) and ether solvent, <i>1,2</i> dimethoxy ethane (DME) with 3.2 mol/kg LiFSI salt, which offers an alternative ion-transport mechanism and improves the overall fluidity of the electrolyte. The molecular dynamics (MD) study reveals that the coordination environment of lithium in the ether aided ionic liquid system offers a coexistence of both the ether DME and FSI anion simultaneously and the absence of ‘free’, uncoordinated DME solvent. These structures lead to very fast kinetics and improved current density for lithium deposition-dissolution processes. Hence the electrolyte is used in a lithium metal battery against a high mass loading (~12 mg/cm<sup>2</sup>) LFP cathode which was cycled at a relatively high current rate of 1mA/cm<sup>2</sup> for 350 cycles without capacity fading and offered an overall coulombic efficiency of >99.8 %. Additionally, the rate performance demonstrated that this electrolyte is capable of passing current density as high as 7mA/cm<sup>2</sup> without any electrolytic decomposition and offers a superior capacity retention. We have also demonstrated an ‘anode free’ LFP-Cu cell which was cycled over 50 cycles and achieved an average coulombic efficiency of 98.74%. The coordination chemistry and (electro)chemical understanding as well as the excellent cycling stability collectively leads toward a breakthrough in realizing the practical applicability of this ether aided ionic liquid electrolytes in lithium metal battery applications, while delivering high energy density in a prototype cell.
