Revisiting Fluorobenzene as Diluents in Ether-Based Electrolytes for Lithium Metal Batteries.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The localized high-concentration electrolyte based on the low-cost, low-density, low-viscosity, and low-fluorine-substitution fluorobenzene diluents and 1,2-dimethoxyethane solvents has been successfully demonstrated in high-performance lithium metal batteries. However, it requires high salt-to-solvent molar ratio, which causes high production costs and great environmental burden. Decreasing the salt-to-solvent molar ratio without sacrificing its electrochemical performance remains a challenge. Herein, we reveal that as the salt-to-solvent molar ratio is decreased, the compatibility of the fluorobenzene-diluted 1,2-dimethoxyethane-based electrolyte with lithium metals transitions from compatible to incompatible. We elucidate the degradation mechanism of the fluorobenzene-diluted 1,2-dimethoxyethane-based electrolyte undergoing severe side reactions with lithium metals. Inspired by these findings, we develop a fluorobenzene-diluted dimethyl acetal-based electrolyte, which enhances the stability of the electrolyte under a reduced lithium-salt concentration, making it show good compatibility with lithium metal (Coulombic efficiency: 99.43% at 25 °C, 97.74% at -40 °C). Moreover, the assembled Li | |SPAN battery displays a high capacity retention of 83% after cycling 500 cycles and can operate at -60 °C. Besides, a high specific energy of 334.53 Wh kg
