Hello,
I want to prepare NaPF6 : EC/DMC electrolyte for Na-ion battery.
I have EC solvent but in a large aluminum bottle of 1L (Sigma Aldrich). I tried to heat the bottle on a hot plate at 80 °C inside the glovebox but it is still solid as a rock (it's melting point is about 40°C).
Could anyone help me find a way to get it in liquid state ?
Is there any problem with heating inside the glovebox? or should I maybe try to heat it outside of the glovebox? Any recommendations?
I would be grateful for any advice. Thank you
