New sulfone-isocyanate mixed electrolytes based on tetramethylene sulfone(TMS) and p-toluenesulfonyl isocyanate(PTSI) were prepared. Their physiochemical properties and electrochemical behavior on the mesocarbon microbeads electrode(MCMB) were investigated by galvanostatic charge-discharge and cyclic voltammetry (CV). The results show that the electrochemical window of the electrolytes are over 5.0 V.Moreover, the mixed electrolytes even perform good thermal stability. Compared with pure TMS-based electrolytes, the mixed electrolytes show better wettability and improved lithiation/delithiation reversibility. The Li/MCMB half-cell exhibits a specific capacity of over 360 mA · h/g with excellent capacity retention after 50 cycles when combined with a composite electrolyte containing 5％ (volume fraction) PTSI because an effective solid electrolyte interface layer is thought to form. The energies of the lowest unoccupied and highest occupied molecular orbitals of PTSI are lower than those of TMS and vinylene carbonate, indicating that PTSI molecules can accept electrons readily and possess a high oxidation potential.%@@ 传统的碳酸酯类电解液体系存在着诸多问题:一方面,碳酸酯类有机物的闪点低(＜30℃)[1],易挥发,很容易导致电池的燃烧甚至爆炸;另一方面,碳酸酯类有机物的电化学窗口较窄(＜5 V).
