Abstract
Radiative Cooling In article number 2100159, Dries De Sloovere, An Hardy, and co-workers, show that careful investigation and optimization of the coordination structure of deep eutectic solvents allows the preparation of a viable electrolyte alternative for sodium-ion batteries. The optimized electrolyte is durable and nonflammable, considerably improving the safety of battery operation. Furthermore, it can offer a more durable electrochemical performance compared to conventional electrolytes.
