The resulting polymer matrix can be represented as a linear polyethylene chain functionalized with cyclic carbonate (dioxolanone) moieties and cross-linked by ethylene oxide units. A series of XPEs are prepared by varying the [O]/[Li] ratio (24 to 3) of the stock solution and thoroughly characterized using physicochemical (thermogravimetric analysis-mass spectrometry, differential scanning calorimetry, NMR, etc.) and electrochemical techniques. In addition, quantum chemical calculations are performed to elucidate the correlation between the electrochemical oxidation potential and the lithium ion-ethylene oxide coordination in the stock solution. Later, lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI) salt is incorporated into the electrolyte system to produce a dual-salt XPE that exhibits improved electrochemical performance, a stable interface against lithium metal, and enhanced physical and chemical characteristics to be employed against high-voltage cathodes. The XPE membranes demonstrated excellent resistance against lithium dendrite growth even after reversibly plating and stripping lithium ions for more than 1000 h with a total capacity of 0.5 mAh cm(-2). Finally, the XPE films are assembled in a lab-scale lithium metal battery configuration by using carbon-coated LiFePO4 (LFP) or LiNi0.8Co0.15Al0.05O2 (NCA) as a cathode and galvanostatically cycled at 20, 40, and 60 degrees C. Remarkably, at 20 degrees C, the NCA-based lithium metal cells displayed excellent cycling stability and good capacity retention (&amp;gt;50%) even after 1000 cycles.&lt;/p&gt;
