This study investigates the effect of chelating agents on the properties of LATP solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) synthesized by the sol-gel method. Three different chelating agents are employed: Citric acid, Acetylacetone, and Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA). The thermal, structural, and electrochemical properties of the LATP samples are investigated and evaluated their performance in solid-state batteries. The chelating agents significantly impact the thermal behavior, phase formation, and microstructure of LATP SSEs due to their intrinsic chemical bonding property. LATP using citric acid (c-LATP) exhibits the small grain size of about 2 mu m and the highest density of 2.8 g/cm3. The Li//c-LATP//Li cell presents the most stable voltage profile with the lowest overpotential resulting from good ionic conductivity (1.03 x 10-3 S/cm). In addition, The Li//c-LATP//LFP battery shows the highest capacity retention rate (81 %) after 100 cycles and excellent rate performance. These results highlight the importance of chelating agent selection in the sol-gel synthesis of LATP for optimizing its properties and achieving high performance of all-solid-state batteries.
