This work investigates the formation and stability of the solid electrolyte interphase on negative electrodes of Li-Ion battery cells and the influence of impurities during and after the formation. It demonstrates, how simplified model experiments can support the progress of understanding complicated commercial-like systems. Furthermore, in this study significant similarities between aqueous and carbonate solvent-based environments are identified. The results serve as a springboard for further fundamental studies and optimization of industrial processes.     «
