Abstract

A process for conditioning an electrochemical cell comprising the steps of fabricating an electrochemical cell comprising a first electrode, a second electrode, and an electrolyte, associating an additive with the electrochemical cell, elevating the temperature of the electrochemical cell, and cycling the electrochemical cell, and in turn, forming a passivation layer at an interface between one of the electrodes and the electrolyte.
