Owing to their excellent energy density, high performance, and minimal self-discharging rate, lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries perform a key role in electric cars.

On the other hand, Li-ion batteries, include combustible liquid electrolytic materials, which may pose major safety issues, restricting their broad adoption.

The solid-state electrolyte (SSE) replaces the standard organic liquid electrolyte and is predicted to alleviate safety issues of the batteries such as leaking, heat runaway, and even explosions during operation.

Among some of the present SSEs, multi-phase solid-state electrolytic composites have increased leeway to customize and incorporate the benefits of synthetic ceramic electrolytes and natural polymer-based electrolytes. Such alternatives are viewed as encouraging options for industrial solid-state Li-ion batteries.
