Lithium salts dissolved in non-aqueous organic electrolytes have been widely used in commercial lithium ion batteries. 1 Understanding the electrolyte stability and decomposition pathways is important for battery design and optimization processes, particularly for high voltage cathodes. However, the influence of the salt anion chemistry and involvement of anion in the electrolyte oxidation decomposition are still controversial.
